Some call two year olds “terrible twos” because little children strongly assert their independence at this age and this can be difficult to manage. I choose to call this stage the “thrilling twos” and intentionally speak life over the little one. This is one practical way to practice mindful parenting and thrive this stage of […]
More than ever before, we must reach out to the lost world. The current pandemic is not an excuse. As I think of fellow believers in underground Churches, Bible smugglers and those who go on covert missions to share the gospel in dangerous places, I see the current pandemic as a test of our ability […]
“Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you” (Ephesians 5:14) How much more will it take before the Church wakes up and open her mouth? What kind of a future are we preparing for our children? Every time I pray about all that is happening in the world right now, […]
Do you see what I see? Can you sense what I am sensing? We are in the last days. Disguised as freedom, wickedness is becoming a norm and many are being deceived. The world wants us to be selfish in the name of happiness and mothering is being presented as bondage. The love of many […]
Fitness is always on my mind and in my plan for the year. Faithfit devotional on YouVersion, is giving me the extra push I need to start my body off right this year. If you need extra motivation to start taking care of your body this year, the Faithfit devotional is for you. We need […]
It is nearly impossible for a breastfeeding mother to forget her infant. She is the source of food and comfort for her little one, and her breasts keep her connected to her little one regardless of the distance. While seeking God’s heart concerning an issue two weeks ago, Isaiah 49:15 was impressed on my heart. […]
From April to December 2020, my search for an artist to turn my ideas into artworks was unsuccessful. Every ‘no’ was disappointing. I wanted elegant cards and wall arts that would provide encouragement for moms and families. In the final week of December, I decided to create some of the artworks myself and I succeeded. […]
We made it! This is my deepest desire and prayer for 2021: That God will fill us with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that we may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, […]
This is part 3 of the Peacemakers Blog Series and it is perfect for the last day of 2020. Please access part 1 and 2 here Many events caused our hearts to be troubled this year. People or events made us lose peace. Thankfully, the Bible teaches us how to keep peace, so we can […]
“Pray for mercy”..Those were the words I heard from the Lord as I prayed when the first wave of COVID-19 hit Europe. Within weeks of beginning a new year, full of hope, expectations and plans, a virus came from the east, swept over the world in weeks. Countries closed their borders, economies fell apart, people […]
The pain of unmet expectations and unanswered prayers can cause one to question God’s existence and love. This year, I had seasons of disappointment and I briefly entertained the enemy’s lies. Thankfully, God’s Word anchored me. In the valley, God reassured me of his love and presence. When I saw Tasting Dirt: When You’re Disappointed […]
What a year! We are almost at the finish line. What word or phrase spring to mind when you think of the year 2020? For me, it is- GROWTH. Welcoming divine interruptions earlier in the year made 2020 a year of growth for me. The blessings, challenges, heartaches and disappointments of 2020 helped me grow. […]
Patience is a spiritual capacity we develop by waiting for God’s best, resting in God’s love, and relying on God’s faithfulness. As we daily celebrate Jesus, let’s reflect on the fact that God modeled patience by not using his sovereign power to save us in a second. Instead, he came in the flesh. He started […]
As I hold a very dependent and vulnerable little one in my arms this Christmas, I am captivated by the humility God modeled. Truly, God modeled humility by taking on mortal flesh for our sake. The greatest one became a little one. The strongest one became one of the weakest and most vulnerable ones. He […]
The day before Jesus was born, the earth was waiting for redemption and all the great things the presence of God in the flesh brought to earth. The birth of Jesus revealed the heart of the father. It revealed the love of God (John 3:16)- the God who manifests himself as the Father, Son, and […]
Last year, I wrote a blog post on “God and the Sex Scandal Lineage“. This year, I wrote a devotional study on the life of Tamar- the first woman listed in the genealogy of Jesus. Tamar was traumatized, abused, rejected, and she committed incest. Yet, God saw it fit to have her in Jesus’ lineage. […]
This is part 2 of the Peacemakers Blog Series. Please read part 1 here While reading “When God Made You” to the little one, we came across this page and I learned more about peacemakers. Peacemakers are builders of bridges. They busy themselves with the ministry of reconciliation just like Jesus the Prince of Peace. […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I wonder what the world would look like if we celebrate the God of wonders throughout the year. Journey with Christian Mommas for 5 days of reflection on Christmas scriptures that will position you to celebrate the wonder of Christmas daily. This short and powerful 5-day devotional […]
“Don’t throw”, the little one reverberated my words to me. I thought his words were simply a reminder for me to practice what I preach. I was wrong. Within few days, I started learning about Peacemakers and the destructive nature of offense and bitterness. God’s Word cleansed me, helped me overcome the spirit of offense […]

Yes, you read that right. FIGHT! In a few days, we will celebrate Thanksgiving in the United States. A day American families near and far gather together to celebrate life and family. It is a holiday of joy and conflict. I suggest that we do the following to position ourselves…

Thankfully, Vanessa-my blogger friend has solved these problems for people like me. If you are interested in beautiful gift baskets that would have eternal value, please check out the […]
Staying thankful is humanly impossible. However, God instructs his children to be thankful in all circumstances (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Few days ago, I almost stepped into the danger zone of murmur (Philippians 2:14). In the middle of little messes, it is easy to forget how blessed we are. Thankfully, I was able to count my […]
It is Veterans Day here in the United States. To all military veterans, thank you for your service! Your fight for freedom will not be in vain. I consider it a great honor to have served in the United States Army. Although I enlisted to serve because of the benefits, my purpose changed once I was […]
