Spiritual Experiences of Motherhood
Mothers know how to nurture and pamper their children. This natural tendency often makes it difficult to rebuke or discipline our children. We do not want to hurt their feelings or break their fragile hearts. We want to be their friend and parent. What a difficult task! As the little one continues to assert his […]

If we don’t put fear in its place, it would put us in its place of defeat and hopelessness. Today, we have a guest post by Udeme Etuknwa-Achiuwa. Udeme loves Jesus and she is a mother holding up other mothers in faith. She shares how fear stole her peace when the pandemic began and decisions […]
I received several reminders to share this post today. This year has had its ups and downs, yet, I have not found myself wishing the year was over already. I am still dreaming and hoping for God’s best in my life, family, the Church, my community and nations. Y’all, this year is still loaded with […]

As many of you probably already know, Netflix has a movie it recently posted called Cuties. After watching maybe about 10 seconds of the trailer, I stopped it and canceled my Netflix. The director claimed she was trying to criticize the exploitation of children but the problem is she…
Today, we remember those who lost their lives in the first successful international terrorist attack against the United States. While some past events must be forgotten. Some must not be forgotten lest we become ungrateful and lose what we have. Let’s not forget to keep standing for the freedom terrorist organizations despise. We must not […]
Here is a poem and scripture for everyone of us to reflect on: For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of […]

Today, I pray that we will live long enough to enjoy the fruit of our labor of love over our children. For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister. Hebrews 6:10 Have a restful […]
To ensure my busy schedule does not affect the little one’s social and emotional development, visiting parks and going out more often have become a priority. One day at the park, I got introduced to a Russian grandma. Well, I had met this grandma at the park before. She was just sweet and friendly. I […]
I would like to address gender neutral parenting- a discourse going around in mom support groups and other parenting groups. Gender neutral parenting means raising a child without identifying him or her as male or female. The goal is to allow children to freely choose whatever gender they feel. Some states in the United States […]
Growing up in Nigeria, parents were always right. In fact, elders were always right. We had to apologize for the wrongs or acts we did not commit. This made me very gullible and I had difficulty challenging authority figures when needed. A culture where children are expected and required to apologize for the wrongs they […]

Anxiety, a negative and burdensome feeling about the future. That’s one way to describe anxiety. An anxious person sees and desires a future, but is overwhelmed by the challenges that may arise. That is the best way I can describe my experiences with anxiety. Anxiety is an emotion characterized by apprehension and somatic symptoms of […]
My heart overflowed with joy and thanksgiving after seeing this news yesterday. When my spouse called me and said “God answers prayers”, I thought he was about to tell me about money matters. Then he showed me this news, worth more to me than money. We have been praying for child abusers to be exposed […]
Last year, I reconnected with my interviewee via social media. We attended high school together, more than fifteen years ago. My memories of our high school interactions cannot be retrieved. I feel terrible that she was going through hell and I did not know it. I was deeply moved by her story and decided to […]
Naturally, we find it easy to predict people’s future based on their story or history. Particularly when something tragic or traumatic happens to an individual. It is natural to assume that such individual’s future is ruined. We often forget that change is inevitable, individuals can sometimes rewrite their stories through will power, and even more beautiful […]

Motherhood is a joyful experience and life is beautiful. Yet…… Sometimes, I have a heavy heart. Sometimes, I can feel thick clouds of darkness. Sometimes, it feels like there is a weight on me. Sometimes, I feel like crying as I pity myself. Sometimes, I feel hopeless. Sometimes, I feel…

Last month, I suddenly had to resign from my job. I started a company shortly after, and I have no doubt that I am pursuing a dream or passion God has placed within me. Then, impostor syndrome showed up and I enforced my victory over it. Tonight, I am reposting a guest post I wrote […]
One fun thing about homeschooling is that I get to explore my artistic skills. The little one tells me what to draw and I make it happen. Homeschooling a toddler should not be hard and I refuse to make it hard. I believe social and emotional development should be emphasized more than academic knowledge in […]
Last week, the little one fell several times. Most time he fell, it was a consequence for disobeying his parents. He disobeyed, despite being told some activities were not good and he was presented with safer activities. Every time he fell or hit his head, I did not derive any pleasure. I was not happy. […]
