To moms and dads ~ In the midst of heart-rending tragedies and challenges confronting our country, plus your other personal trials, you are trying to be a good parent and love and raise your child (or children) well. I know you’re tired. (I am, and our kids are grown.) . Yet, don’t miss this… . It’s not a coincidence that you are a mom or dad with children under your roof – right now. God gave you to your child, and he gave your child to you. Savor his encouragement to you—God knows the parent you can be right now and continue to become, as you learn to rely on him throughout the day. You are not alone. Some days will be hard; others will be fun—many will take your breath away. . So, I hope you’ll join me for my “Simple-Steps” podcast! Each episode offers one small, practical way to practice relying on God as you raise your kids. . You can find it in your favorite app—or go to the link in my bio. #simplestepsparenting #simplestepspodcast #momlife #dad

Do you have 10 minutes? . That’s about the length of my new podcast Simple Steps! . If you are a dad or mom—or know a dad or mom—I would love for you to give it a listen and share it. . In Episode 2 I share 3 questions that I learned to consider over the years of raising our kids. They served as a “security” check and helped me discern how a child felt about herself and how I could impact this. . You can find it on your favorite app, or use the link in my bio. And tell me what you think! . #simplestepsparenting #dads #daddy #becomingapeacefulmom #momlife #simplestepspodcast #momswhopray #parenting

I could not count the number of times that today’s Bible verses have guided, calmed, refocused, assured, strengthened, and inspired me. . If you’ve downloaded this FREE calendar (Link in bio), I hope it serves you well as a tool (and not another task to tackle:)). When I pray for the ‘group-of-the-day’, I smile knowing others of you are praying the same—Thanks for joining me. . I pulled part of an old post from my website that applies the passage and I hope encourages you today: . “Today, trust God. . Whatever’s on your mind, picture it. Then invite the LORD to stand between you and it – a decision, an offense, a temptation, a next step, a relationship, how to handle a problem. . With God between you and it, give it directly to him. Unload, download, ask for the very next step, ask for forgiveness or decide to forgive, admit fear, anger, jealousy, regret, sadness, loneliness… ‘Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will make straight your paths.’ (Proverbs 3.5-6) Dear God, I don’t want to think alone, much less, walk through this alone. I need you with me, to lead me. Help me practice trusting you. Amen.”

April presented challenges and left many questions

April presented challenges and left many questions still unanswered. Many of our plans have been canceled or postponed, and the calendar is mostly white space. Yet, God’s plans remain the same. We don’t know all of them, but we know him—He is steadfast and true, our faithful and good Father. . God is at work in you, in me, and in our big world. At the same time, he works through you and me and through the circumstances occurring in our life and world—even on our worst days. . Every day, he shows the way, shining his light at our feet. A step with God is a sure step. . “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him.” (Psalm 37.23) . I have designed a May calendar to help us draw close to God each day. And, since we’ve all been in our homes A LOT, I’ve added 12 prayer “outings,” that I’m very excited about. . See the link in my bio! . .
