Spiritual Experiences of Motherhood
And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity; And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings […]
As the year ends, my heart is filled with gratitude, and I find Ephesians 7:8 comforting. Last night, I spent time reflecting on the goodness of God with the little one (I encourage you to do the same with your little ones). This December feels like the final weeks of pregnancy. I have been waiting […]

As the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so is a man to his praise.Proverbs 27:21 (KJV) This time last year, I was in the labor room. Exhausted and heartbroken. 10 cm dilated but a cesarean section is required. The pain of unmet birth expectation. It felt like laboring in vain. The […]
1 Timothy 6:12 (KJV) Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Fight the good fight of faith As we interact with family members this festive season, situations or conversations may set the atmosphere up for unhealthy confrontation […]
As I ponder the parenting styles of the past, I see that I did have guinea pigs to train. I was glad to be an older mom; I had more time to know Jesus after a near-death experience. Someday, I will share my experience. Before becoming a parent, I deepened my faith in Jesus and […]
And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. Matthew 2:13 (KJV) Joseph and […]
As I was looking through our bookshelf, I decided to pick up life without limits by Nick Vujicic and read it. I have read my share of books, but I never thought in my wildest imagination that Nick’s book would inspire and encourage me as it has. It was like God directed me to read […]
Happy Veterans Day to all military veterans! While I separated from the military about four years ago, I still find myself singing military cadences. Last weekend, I sang “I’m a steam roller baby, I’m gonna roll all over you…” as steam rolled out of my little kettle. Also, I marched around the house with my […]
Telling my 5 year old son that his baby brother or sister had died and was no longer growing in my belly was one of the most heartbreaking things I have ever done. Telling him that his uncle died just a few months later, and attending the funeral was a close second. Coming home from […]
A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping. Proverbs 19:13 (KJV) A foolish child is a father’s ruin, and a quarrelsome wife is like the constant dripping of a leaky roof. Proverbs 19:13 (NIV) Reflections: If I become an argumentative wife, my husband will not enjoy being home […]

Sarah obeyed Abraham [following him and having regard for him as head of their house], calling him lord. And you have become her daughters if you do what is right without being frightened by any fear [that is, being respectful toward your husband but not giving in to intimidation, nor allowing yourself to be led […]
While driving the little ones to a pumpkin farm last week, I found myself reflecting on my motherhood experience and the sacrifices I have purposefully made for the little ones. I observed that motherhood has indeed given me the opportunity to redo my childhood. It has given me the opportunity to be the mother I […]
Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it. Proverbs 22:6 (NIV) This scripture is both a commandment and a promise/covenant. God is faithful to do His part. Are we intentional about doing our part? Parents have the responsibility to start off their […]
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. John 13:34 (KJV) Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it~ Ephesians 5: 25 (KJV) It is often said that love is not all […]

Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Hebrews 13:4 (NKJV) When we take our eyes off the one who is worthy of all honor, we lose the ability to hold our marriage in high regard. Dishonor leads to defilement. Let’s be covenant keepers. For the believer, […]
