Mundane Monday

It is Monday yet again. Yay! For us SAHM’s Mondays can prove to be difficult as well. Our weekend is over, our adoring hubby is back to work, there are chores to be done, and mundane things to accomplish.

Holocaust of Modern America

I have so many things I want to write about. Maybe I should write a bunch of blog posts now and have them post so that the days I don’t write, there will be something there...?

Thankfulness.....Tuesday

So, this is a day late, but we need to be thankful everyday, not just on Mondays, so I guess it’s not “late.”

What are some things you are thankful for? Here are a few of the things I am:

1) Chilly mornings
2) Cuddling on chilly mornings
3) Waking up a sleeping baby to eat
4) A very stuffed baby
5) Giggles from said baby trying to get his daddy’s attention
6) Bruises from carnival rides
7) Dreaming of Strawberry milk
8) A day of no errands
9) Lost Weight
10) Devotions early in the morning with my Lord


there is always something we can be thankful for, and on the days we don’t feel like being thankful, those are the days we need to strive even harder to be thankful. By grumbling, we are acting like the Israelites did after God brought them out of slavery and into freedom. They grumbled and complained about every little thing. Let us not be like them. Let us have a heart knowing God is caring for us and we have lots to be thankful for.

Mundane Monday

I know guys, it is Monday again. DRAG!! But guess what, God has created this Monday. He has created it specifically for the purpose of us bringing Him glory and honor. For showing others just how majestic our God is. For being thankful and sending praise to our God for what we have. I know it’s rough; it is Monday for goodness sake, but that is all the more reason to strive for a thankful and joyful heart this day. Let us be glad for this is the day the Lord has made. There is something we can find in it to be joyful about. :) I just know it.

Passing Children Through the Fire

Have you ever heard of Moloch? He was an ammonite god worshipped by the Cannanites and other groups of people. He was a god that parents sacrificed their children to. Now, if sacrificing kids doesn’t sound awful enough, let me explain HOW this was done. Children were placed on the idol’s outstretched arms and were burned to death, slowly. 

Are Your Tanks Filled

I love how God works. When it seems like He is teaching me something, I hear it over and over. :) The thing He has been working on me lately is filling my amazing husband’s love tank. I had read the book “The Five Love Languages” and knew about the different love languages. I even knew what ones John was. But, it seemed like his tank wasn’t being filled. I wasn’t doing a good job of trying to fill it and I wasn’t sure HOW to fill it. 

Only Momentary

I have been reading an AMAZING book called “This Momentary Marriage” by John Piper. This book has been so enlightening and helpful. Probably one of THE best marriage books I’ve read.

It has brought me to tears and has really helped me realize that this marriage of mine is only temporary. It is to show the world what greater things are to come. It is to be a great marriage showing others an example of the gospel and leave them longing for the things of Above.
