Spiritual Experiences of Motherhood
As I meditate on Proverbs 1:8-9, I do not only see my children’s responsibility, I also see my responsibility as a parent. My responsibility is to ensure the laws I put in place are good and will ultimately be graceful to them. God, our heavenly father does not ask us to do what he has […]
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 […]
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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
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. […]

If you are not a new or expecting parent, share with someone you know.😉 Also, pray for the group🙏 Topic: Preparing the NurseryTime: […]
I get asked all the time, “How do you find time to take care of yourself while raising 5 little ones and homeschooling?” Truth is, we make time for whatever is important to us. Our physical bodies need attention just like souls do. If we want to be healthy spiritually, we need daily nourishment through […]
Galatians 6:7~ Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. In other words, “What you make happen for others, God will make happen for you”. I experience this in my life and I believe there are many who can attest to this principle. For every parent […]
Growing up, superman was one of my favorite superheroes. He had superpowers and he maximized it by protecting communities. Christians have the ultimate superpower, the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8) and this power is not just available for our personal use. The life of a Christian is not meant to be about “me, myself and I” […]

Are we applying this power to the little ones we love and hold dear? Have you ever prayed words of Scripture over your children? This mother does. ◊ A couple of years into her marriage, my daughter shared with me a series of Bible verses that she faithfully compiled together…
This quote reminds me of God, our heavenly father as a parent. God corrects his imperfect children, yet he calls them righteous/perfect and calls forth who they will become. God convicts his children, He does not put the weight of condemnation on them. Conviction leads to repentance, condemnation leads to separation. God models what wise […]
Okay, this “way maker” song has been on repeat play in my house for days. Today, the little one has been glued to it. We dare not turn it off, if we do not want to hear a high pitched scream. I was about to turn it off after considering the negative impacts of excessive […]
Almost every new mom says “I did not know I could love someone this much”. This same love can turn a mother without combat skills into a fierce warrior when her child is in trouble. Love is what makes many mothers quit bad habits that could potentially hurt a child in their womb. For love […]
Half the year is gone, just like that! The current pandemic definitely changed many things about how we do life. It revealed the weaknesses in all systems and the fragility of life. While assisting the little one up the stairs yesterday, I was reminded that we would always need God. We will never be self […]
Every morning, I welcome the little one into a new day with a big smile on my face. I always get a smile back. Every morning, God welcomes us into a new day with new mercies. That’s the biggest smile I can think of. Receive God’s love and mercy, He extends them to you because […]
As I watch the little one sleep peacefully, my heart is filled with joy and gratitude. I miss him more when he goes to sleep, but I also look forward to him going to bed. I am thankful for the little one. He is a precious gift from God. God uses him to help me […]

I’m the mother of an abused child. While the abuse happened outside my home and far from my view or awareness, it often feels as if I carry full responsibility. I struggle with guilt and, if I’m honest, sometimes I struggle will condemnation. These things aside, however, I can look…
