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, “I pray that you will trust in the Lord and be unmoved by any circumstance.” This is a very short passage, but it packs a lot of power. I certainly don’t want to be a fair weather Christian that caves in anytime a trial comes my way and I definitely don’t want to raise children that are that way either. As believers, we have to stand strong on God’s word and walk in faith no matter what. “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7). It’s easy to let circumstances and situations throw us off track, but those are the times that we need to let our faith guide us through.

I still have moments in which I get frustrated and irritated, but I have to soon remind myself that I am a child of God and activate my faith instead of being led by my frustration. This also allows me the opportunity to show my child the proper way to get through in those moments. Lets always trust in the Lord and be unmoved by ANY circumstance.

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