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.

Sunday’s passage read, “Your heavenly Father pays attention to us, and you can relax. You can take it easy-you are in good hands. You will lie down in peace and sleep here in this room; the Lord will keep you safe.” It’s such a blessing to know that we can dwell in peace all the days of our lives. The Lord has given us the ability to be at peace in all things, just as long as we trust in Him. The word says, “You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.” (Isaiah 26:3). As believers, there is no need for us to worry, fret or fear. “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7).

Oft times we let situations and circumstances take away our peace. Although, we must understand that once we were filled with the Holy Spirit we were filled with the peace of the Lord. We can also exercise this principle in raising our children. When those “not so peaceful” moments arise in the wonderful world of parenting, we have the authority to speak peace. We have the power and authority to speak life to our situations and circumstances, so why are we not applying this to its fullest potential? It’s time to stop letting our peace be disrupted by the incidents of life and it’s time to start taking authority and living our best life yet!

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