How moms fight spiritual battles

So many horrible, heartbreaking, and frustrating things happening in our country! 💔🙏

God's Word describes the agony felt when innocent lives are taken, like yesterday in Texas...

"In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not." - Matthew 2:18

“And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more.” - Exodus 11:6

Mommas, we must make our cries, our voices heard in ways that actually prompt change!

Call + write our representatives... absolutely!

Share + express our views on whatever platform God has given us... of course!

The Spiritual Battle

⚔️🛡💪 But most importantly, remember the SPIRITUAL BATTLE you are called to right where you are today, and FIGHT!

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” - 1 Peter 5:8

🤷‍♀️ HOW? What does this look like, practically?

🙏 PRAY over your children everyday.

📖 TEACH them daily what the scriptures say.

👣 WALK in grace + faith alongside them.

Instruments of change

Mommas, I truly believe we are the instruments through which change will happen.

Allow God to work in and through you each day as you love on the souls He has temporarily placed into your care.

GOD IS WITH YOU, MOMMA!

"He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young." - Isaiah 40:11

Seek Him.

Trust Him.

Follow Him.

He is carrying our children in His arms, and gently leading us.

This is how we know Matthew 5:4 to be true.

"Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted."

Praying for peace + comfort to those grieving, and for wisdom & unity to those in State + National leadership... God please help us & bless us.

Amen. 🤍
