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. At 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 ask the Lord God to give you the ability to see obstacles and challenges through eyes of faith as Caleb did. By His power, He has made you more than able to overcome.” As we all know, the challenges and obstacles that life can present to us can seem a bit daunting at times. Although as believers we have the power to overcome every trial that comes our way. We must exercise our faith and trust that God will bring us out with victory every time. When Caleb went with the other eleven men that Moses sent to explore the land of Canaan he had great faith. The others weren’t sure that they could take possession of the land because the people that lived there seemed so powerful, but Caleb knew that they could. Numbers chapter 13 verse 30 went onto explain how Caleb verbally expressed his faith… “Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, "We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it."”

This is the kind of faith that we all should have. We need to teach our children to have this kind of faith as well. They must understand that trials and tribulations will surely come, but as long as they see them through eyes of faith as Caleb did, they will always overcome them.

Until our next appointed meeting time. Stay tuned for more words of encouragement and inspiration for M.O.M.’s near and far!
