Three Keys For Mom Aug 14 2007


"...rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer..." - Romans 12:12

It's not easy being a mom these days. Whether you're home full time or working outside the home, there are challenges. There's a verse of scripture in Romans that contains three keys for moms and, really, anyone who wants to live a victorious life:

Be joyful in hope. Every mom has hope for her kids. When a mom trusts in the Lord and believes His promises in scripture, she can be joyful in hope for the future of her family.

Persevere in trials. There will be difficulties and trials for every mom (kids not doing well, times of feeling unappreciated, etc.). But when her hope is grounded in God, she can find strength to endure any trial.

Be devoted to prayer. Hey, moms, with so many trials and so much out of your control, be devoted to prayer. Turn your concerns, your fears, and your children over to the Lord. Prayer is the power source for being a great mom and a great person.

Hope, perseverance, and prayer--three keys to victory for moms and most everyone.

Thanks! I had just been in prayer about things that seem out of control. I am trying to press forward with faith believing that God is in control and will provide a good outcome according to His purposes. This devotion was so timely.

This is so relevant! I was just speaking with a dear friend about my kids being overscheduled or underscheduled; as Moms we have a lot of concerns. We don't want them to miss out or to be stressed out!It helps to remind ourselves what really matters, and it is not the opinions of the world. :)

I firmly believe in prayer, and I pray every night. However, sometimes a cure is not necessarily God's Will.
