Embracing Your Calling as a Spiritual Mother: A Devotional for Women of Faith
What is a mother? The nature of a mother is to soothe, to nurture, to protect, to encourage, and to love. A mother sees the potential in those who are like tender babies in the early stages of development. This can be in regard to anything—whether or not these babies came from her womb or are given to her from the Spirit of God. To be a spiritual mom is to see the potential fruit in someone, or many, who are just starting out in their calling in life. These are special women that God places all around to bring out the gifts and callings of His children that He…

It’s Okay to Be Broken: A Devotional on Healing
It’s okay to be broken. It’s okay to not be perfect. So many times, people think that God will only listen to their prayers if they are in a perfect, whole place. This is actually the opposite of the truth. My mind is filled with example after example of the people in the Bible that God used and heard who were far from perfect. If God only wanted to use perfect people, then our relationship with Him would be based on performance. That would completely defeat the purpose of a Savior. It’s the daily walking and building of relationships that God wants. In those times when you feel sad, hurt,…
