Discovering God’s will for your life as a mom
There is nothing inherently wrong with making plans (as long as we hold them loosely), nothing wrong with praying for a specific outcome. We need outlets and relief. We need breaks from our children, however brief. But we must remember that no one knows this better than our loving heavenly Father, who never takes even the tiniest break from us. He is the Lord our God who will never leave us or forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6). And it is only when we rest in the knowledge that His ways are always ... [keep reading]

When we hear about the Sabbath as a “day of rest,” we mothers cock our heads and wonder, How on earth can I rest as a mom? But thinking of the Sabbath only as a day to “not work” limits the view of what we’re offered. The Sabbath is the fourth of the Ten Commandments. The reason given is simple: “For the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and everything in them ... [keep reading]
