Word Wednesday

Today is officially “Word Wednesday” otherwise known as “Hump Day.” We’ve made it half way through yet another week on the wonderful, exciting and bumpy road of motherhood. Therefore, some of us are looking for some encouraging words to make it through the rest of the week with Joy and Peace. Every night before my son goes to bed, in addition to reading bible stories, I read him a passage out of “Prayers That Avail Much, First Blessings for Your Child” by Germaine Copeland. Mommies we have to keep our children prayed up and constantly put Gods word in their hearts.

Yesterday’s passage read, “I thank the Lord that you will have no veil over your face; you can be a mirror that brightly reflects the glory of the Lord. As the Spirit of the Lord works within you, you will become more and more like Him.” After reading this passage I thought to myself, “Wow, this is one of my favorite passages thus far!” I would love so very much for my son to be a “mirror that brightly reflects the glory of Lord.” I like the fact that the author chose to use the terminology, “brightly reflects” instead of just saying “reflects.” This passage really spoke to me because I truly want to brightly reflect God’s glory wherever I go.

In our daily walk, we should ALWAYS live every moment as though our mirror is posted up for everyone to see. In doing so, we need to be sure that our reflection is as bright as possible. I want my light to shine every time I walk into a room! As mothers, if we raise strong men and women with bright reflections of God’s glory, just imagine how beautiful and amazing this world can one day be. Please take a few moments to reflect on the words written on this page. As the great apostle Paul wrote, “Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this.” (2 Timothy 2:7). Go ahead and light their candles today!

Be sure to tune in tomorrow for more words of encouragement and inspiration for M.O.M.’s near and far!
