Our redemption is far bigger than we can ever fathom. Jesus Christ not only died to give us deliverance and forgiveness from our sins, but He became a partaker of our flesh and blood so that we can become partakers of His life ( Hebrews 2:14). His glorious, victorious, perfect, joyful, longsuffering, loving, and powerful (dunamis) life!
This is amazing! This is revolutionary! If only we can truly get the revelation and live in it. Dear precious mother, you are not on your own in your little home, mothering and teaching your children. In fact, you can’t do it in your own wisdom and strength! But if Christ dwells within you, you share in His life. He wants to live His glorious life through you--in your kitchen, cooking meals, sorting out squabbles, and bringing peace and joy to your home.
Hebrews 3:1 states that we are “PARTAKERS of the heavenly calling.”
Hebrews 3;14 states that we are made “PARTAKERS of Christ.”
Hebrews 6:4 states that we have been made “PARTAKERS of the Holy Spirit.”
2 Peter 1:4 states that we have become “PARTAKERS of the divine nature.” The “divine nature”! Not our fleshly nature! Jesus Christ wants to live His divine nature through you! He wants to share it with you. He wants you to share it with Him. Not just at church, but every day and every moment in your home with your children. Right now.
You are not convinced? Listen to John 1:16 talking about Jesus the Word who “was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. . . . And of his FULLNESS HAVE ALL WE RECEIVED, grace for grace.” This is not talking about a scanty bit of grace, but an abundance of grace for every situation you face each day. You share in His fullness!
“Dear Father, please help us to get a glimpse of the glory and divine life that You want us to live in each day. Save us from living on the crumbs and imprisoned to our fleshly reactions when you have invited us to share Your divine nature. Help us to live in the fullness of your grace for every challenge we face. Thank You in Jesus’ name. Amen.”
Don’t live normally today, but supernaturally.

The Bible speaks about “the time of life” which relates to us as women. Every month we are blessed with a “time of life.” It is the time of ovulation during our monthly cycle, which can last from five to seven days. This is the time of the month when we can conceive; when we are able to receive life from God.
Paul wrote to Timothy to remind him that he was “the third generation of a strong lineage of faith” (2 Timothy 1:5 Mirror). What a great blessing.
Do not worry, little mother
The following poem is written by a dear friend of mine, Val Halloran. She says: “I wrote this when I was mothering the little people referred to in this poem. Now, in what seems to be a blink of an eye, those "little people" are parenting their own little people. To those in the throws of raising children, savor these precious moments.”
Christ has no hands but our hands to do His work today
Our God is a blessing God. He wants to bless His people. How can He tangibly do this? He wants to use us as a physical expression of His love and compassion. We are His hands and His feet to our family and to the world. We are His smile of affirmation and encouragement to our husbands, children, older people, and the lonely and hurting around us.
I read this morning: “The one who works his land will have plenty of food, but whoever chases daydreams lacks sense” (Proverbs 12:6 TLV). This is one of the promises we have for provision. Make sure we grow a garden.
Do you feel dead inside? Is the love you once enjoyed in your marriage smoldered and gone out? Are all the beautiful plans for your family life buried in the grave of hurts and disappointments? Nothing has worked out the way you wanted.
Many people today work in jobs that are not satisfying. It’s a paycheck and that’s all. As mothers we are very blessed to be in a job career where we do beautiful things. We are so privileged.

How are you training your children? Are you training them to be grown up babies or mature sons and daughters in the Lord? Sadly, too many adults are still babies in the Lord, even though they may have been Christians for years. They haven’t yet learned to feed from God’s Words daily. They still rely on their pastor or minister to give them a meal once a week when they go to church? But during the week they starve. They never open their Bible and don’t know how to feed from the Living Word each day.
What is your relationship with God? Moses had a “face to face” relationship with Him. Exodus 33:11 says: “And the Lord spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaks unto his friend.”
