Where are you today?
In Isaiah, God tells us that “in repentance and rest is our salvation and in quietness and trust is our strength”. Where are you? Are you trusting in Him?
Hmmm…Am I trusting “solely” in Him today?
I know as moms, we want the best for our babies, correct? If your baby is a newborn or your baby is 21 years old…still your “baby” right? I think only us as moms can really get that!!! God blesses us with those “babies” as a gift…and only for a little while. Ultimately…they are His! Ultimately…they have to answer to Him one day!
Sometimes we just have to Let Go and move out of the way and Let God…That can be a tough one for me as my personality is one of being in control of situations in my life 🙂 Those of you “triangles” out there can relate to this, right? This is where “in quietness and trust” in Him that I find my strength…I can remember a day when I used to want that peace I saw in other Christians. I finally got a hunger (just a few years ago actually) that pushed me to seek out that peace by doing what was required on my end…surrendering in obedience…He was always there waiting with open arms for me!!! Now thinking back…His timing was absolutely perfect as always because in the storms of my current life – I would surely have drowned already 🙂 without it!
Proverbs 22:6 says “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it” – What if you did not do that in previous years of raising your child??? Start today!!! Be their light in this world of darkness…Strive with everything you have to be a Godly example to them. It is NEVER too late to start sowing the right kinds of seeds 🙂 If you have been sowing those good seeds…continue onward mamas as God’s Word says “Blessed is she who believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her” – Luke 1:45
His Word will not return VOID…Write His Words on your heart and most of all…write them on your babies’ hearts!!! (Little Babies or Big Babies – does not matter!)
Been doing that and doing that and you are EXHAUSTED???
Return to Him…and in quiet time with Him and trusting in Him…you will find your strength!
