7 days of Hope for a Weary Mom



Day 1(take 2)

I have written this blog twice so by the Lords grace... I won't lose it again...

Mob society and Hope for a weary mom are hosting 7 days of Hope for a weary mom.


  1. What does weary look like in your home? Describe the physical as well as emotional toll weariness takes on you.

  1. Weary for me has been such a heaviness in my soul and aching in my heart, a wondering why?My heart aches because what I see in my children, the decisions they make or not make scare me, I am worried and unsure of why I have done what I have done for the last 10 years.( homeschooling, devotions with themU each day, prayer as a family on our knees...) I wonder what is all for? Why care? Why make all the sacrifices when they get old enough all they do is sin, justifying their sin by your mistakes? Why even try to live in righteousness for our Lord?
  2. Ten years ago the Lord brought revelation in our lives, a renewing of our minds through the Word and realization that living for Him meant alot more than just going to church on Sunday. We also came to a place in realizing that we were releasing our children to Ceasar each day, allowing the ungodly philosophies to be embedded in their souls and trying to counteract it with a total of 4-5 hours of " church" a week. If you do the math you will realize we were losing the battle. So the journey began of homeschooling and installing the Word of God in them each day. Now I have three that have graduated, I have 5 children that work outside of our home and I am scared. I am scared because I see them making decisions or not speaking up for the righteousness that we, through the Word of God, have tried to instill in them. It has made me wonder why all the sacrifice if they are going to forsake all? Why be on my knees? Why be different than this world if the result is no different than whose eyes are not open? My heart is aching and my soul is weary....
Where do you turn first for comfort and relief?

I turn to the Word of the Lord for comfort because there is no where else to turn. I have no one around me I can share things with so on my knees and at the feet of Jesus I go

 

Praying this journey will bring me comfort....so will you join me on this walk for the next 7 days?

    Thank you for linking up with 7 Days of Hope!

    This fight is only one that can be fought on our knees in prayer. You mentioned releasing your kids to Ceasar - take heart and know that God loves our children more than we know how to love them, and that He is watching over them, daily!

    Keep on keeping on, Momma. You can do it with His help. :)

    I hope you'll come back and link up for tomorrow's discussion!

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Hello all...

Hello my Siesta(Beth Moore's word for Sisters-Love it)  I have decided to start this online bible Blog Study that Preacher's Wife  wrote. It has already started my wheels turning in my mind and heart. The very first question:  Are there any circumstances or relationships in your life where you can see God has intentionally placed you? Yes- many! A few grow heavy in my heart! What do you perceive may be at stake if you do or do not speak out for Him? The person's soul will be lost for eternity. They will not walk with me into the gates of heaven and I will spend the rest of my eternal life knowning I did nothing, said nothing and do not do what God intended me to do. Can you Honestly describe yourself as a woman with a "yes" in her spirit? No I can not say I can- I would like to fool myself and those around you to say I am but when it comes down to it.. I have failed! If not what keeps you from this? FEAR- fear that the person will see my words as judgement and no...

What is the meaning of family or extended family to you?

One of the things about moving to Texas that we were "excited" about was the thought of having "all the family" here.(actually extended family) Grandma,grandpa,  Sam's brothers, and sister are all here.  Well we have been here almost 6 months now. I guess the newness of us being here has worn off, because we do not receive  phone calls, text messages, or emails of;" what are you all doing this weekend?"  " Do you want to get together?"  It has turned out to be just like any other time we lived in close vicinity of each other. We have become special occasion, holiday only relations.  Why is that?  How does that happen?  Is it because we live such separate lives?   Our lives are very uneventful. We spend them each day just surviving that day. We do not think of tomorrow- (that is scriptural) We do not take pleasure in vain things. I hate to shop. I love to sew. I hate going to the beauty parlor. All those things that "woman" are suppo...
