My children are not supposed to reflect me. They are supposed to reflect Jesus. My light is not strong enough, it never will be.
Who Are Your Kids Supposed to Reflect? It’s Not You…

Christ-Centered Mothering, Purpose-Driven Living
My children are not supposed to reflect me. They are supposed to reflect Jesus. My light is not strong enough, it never will be.
We often feel the need to correct childish ideas. We know that bubbles will not fly to heaven, and it takes more than bubbles to make Jesus happy. Or does it?
Adults understand that we can’t throw a tantrums and cry when we are having a bad day. We have learned the fine art of hiding our feelings. Children have not.
Our daughters need to read about women they can admire and emulate and whose footsteps they can follow in during their own big-time moments.
As mothers, we have the opportunity to be the first to give our children the best news of all! In this post, my sister shares this Good News with her treasure.
While trying to raise a great boy, I decided to look to what God said about the one Boy who grew up perfectly- His own Son. This is how we raise great men.
As we and many others celebrated Sanctity of Life Sunday yesterday, I thought of a letter my mother had written to me years ago about the value of life.
What if being a purposeful mom is about my willingness to follow God’s leading in my life as I learn to be a better mom, wife, friend, and follower of Jesus.
For some, finding their purpose as a woman, wife, or mother means losing themselves as a person. But God has called us for more than that.
We as mothers hope to one day leave a legacy. Because one day our children will grow and will either carry on our legacy or choose a path of their own.
