Advancing God's Kingdom
My prayer for all fathers: May you live long to enjoy the fruits of your labor. May you be celebrated in heaven and on earth. May your life reveal the love and comfort of God to every child in your sphere of influence. May the good Lord bless you and give you wisdom to make […]
We are all born unique in the Image of God. We may have brown, black, blonde, red hair, or a variation? We may have brown, black, blue, green, hazel, or any combination of eye color. We have skin color from pale white, yellow, every tan or brown, mahogany to gorgeous black. We are a beautiful […]
The role of a mother is to support fathering and the role of a father is to support mothering. Last month, I was privileged to write a devotional in partnership with Mr. Michael Griego , a seasoned father and grandfather. He shared scriptures, prayer points, and 5 essentials for great and effective fatherhood, and I […]
Last week, I caught myself telling the little one, “You are wasting your time.” I repented and spoke life over the little one by declaring, “You will not waste your time.” I have written a lot about speaking life over our children, but I found myself not practicing what I preach. I shared my shortcoming […]
In Luke 5:10 Jesus said “Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men”. In Luke 5: 11, Simon Peter and his fishing partners FORSOOK ALL, and followed Jesus. Those scriptures came alive while studying the Bible, today. So, it was impressed upon my heart to reblog this post and remind all moms here to be […]
Young mothers despise unsolicited advice, particularly from experienced mothers. Sometimes, experienced mothers belittle the natural competency of young mothers. Perhaps, this is why many young mothers resist counsel from seasoned mothers. What if seasoned mothers feel the need to provide unsolicited advice because they genuinely care. What if being condescending is not their intention. What […]
Happy Mother’s Day to every woman with the heart of a mother. Thank you for your sacrifices. Thank you for the comfort you give. Thank you for fighting for the lives of children. May you always be celebrated! To the moms and children grieving this season, my heart grieves with you. May your sorrow be […]
The media inundates us with images of loving mom and child relationships, their hands holding beautiful bouquet flowers. We see gifts, cards, and children bringing their mom food in bed while sentimental music accompanies the acts of love. For some moms, the images can bring emotional pain. As Mother’s Day approaches, we may begin to […]
Reblogging this post because it speaks to kingdom mothering. Motherhood is a joyful adventure. Yes, there are challenging moments. However, those moments pale in comparison to the joyful moments. I hope you will enter to win this book and be blessed by the message of kingdommothering ❤
Yesterday, Mary Mesikapp shared a powerful post addressing our imperfections. She shared ways to combat imperfections with God’s Word. During a chat, fellow blogger Dawn Fanshawe shared that the theme scripture in this devotional is one of her favorite resurrection scriptures. I see God’s divine arrangement and confirmation that this devotional was written for such […]
Dear friends, I am excited to share Kim Petitt’s devotional with you. On this blog, Kim speaks to parenting teen/adult children. She has been a great blessing to this community. What can you do when your child’s words and behavior communicate: “I reject you, your values, and your God?” In this plan, Kim Petitt shares […]
Today, the little one prayed for me. It was the best moment of my day. I told him my stomach was hurting and he said “First we need to pray. It is well with you in Jesus name.” I have no words to describe what it felt like. I am glad he knows we need […]
My first book, A Christian Mother’s Creed was published a year ago on the 4th of April 2020. I did not celebrate this milestone because I forgot. Meanwhile, I had my first book signing in Church on March 21st. Pictures below. I am thankful for your love and support. I am celebrating the impact and […]
When our adult child violates our values, makes poor choices or gets in deep trouble, we often question who we are as a parent. Our self-doubt shout at us: Was it something I did or didn’t do? Would this have happened if I had been a better parent? Would this have happened if I had […]
Yesterday, my son- Jose said: “The Bible is like a bag of potato chips. Once you start reading it, you want more.” How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalm 119:103(NIV) When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart’s delight, for I […]
Today, I am taking a moment to celebrate and support my sister in the faith, fellow momma and blogger- Alicia. While I am yet to meet Alicia in person, I have met her virtually. However, this pales in comparison to the strong spiritual connection we share. The blood of Jesus flows through our veins. For […]
Today, I am thankful for my salvation. It is a great privilege to belong in God’s family, to be fathered by the creator of the universe, to be loved and held by God. Having a relationship with God grounds me and keeps me centered. It is transforming me. It has given me a purpose and […]
It is important to teach our children about the love of God all year around. Valentine’s Day approaching right around the corner also gives us a great opportunity to teach our children about “true love.” Not the conditional love the world shows, not Eros (romantic love) or even Storge (family love). We can use Valentine’s […]
Posted this on my personal Facebook page, so i thought to share here as well.. I don’t have words to describe how I felt seeing my dear friend rock a shirt I designed. I am blessed to have this lady in my life (Proverbs 18:24).. You can purchase this shirt and other gifts for expectant […]
Bethany’s post sums up a few things that have been on my mind lately. We live in an age where women are told to resist or neglect their femininity and the lie that the Bible promotes the oppression of women is being propagated. This post addresses these issues and encourages mothers to embrace the gift […]
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 […]
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 […]
The third trimester marks the final stage of pregnancy. The excitement to see the baby is usually stronger. Excitement, a bigger baby bump, and pressure on the pelvic bone can make one tired of being pregnant.. The baby is almost here, but the day and time are unknown for many mothers without a scheduled cesarean […]
