I am encouraged by this Scripture in Proverbs 24:25-27 TPT: “Set your gaze on the path before you. With fixed purpose looking straight ahead, IGNORE LIFE’S DISTRACTIONS. Stick to the path of truth . . . DON’T ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE SIDETRACKED FOR EVEN A MOMENT.”The devil knows that he can’t sidetrack us with things that are evil. We would not be interested. So, he distracts us and sidetracks us with things that look good and even wise, and yet my not be the best. We must constantly check what is our purpose in life and mothering and keep our eyes on that goal. If even good things will distract us from our purpose, we don’t do them.
I am already a very focused person, but I am seeking to more and more be untouched by distractions. We must also learn to detect distractions and know that although they may be harmless and even good, they may not be the ultimate best.
May the Lord pour out His blessings upon you in this coming year and keep you looking to Him and doing His will.
Much love,
Nancy Campbell

Dearest mothers, you have such a high calming and such a beautiful role in society. And so needed. Embrace it. Never look down upon it.
If I decorate my house perfectly with plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights and shiny balls, but do not show love to my family, I'm just another decorator.
Do you feel overwhelmed at all you have to do? Don’t give up in Despair. Keep plodding on. Do a little bit at a time and soon you will have the job completed the job.
A few days ago, I shared the picture of two of my granddaughters helping me make my annual Christmas cake. I notice that a number of folks are asking for the recipe. Sorry for the delay, but here it is for you.
THE IMAGE OF GOD’S FACE
This is another Scripture you can pray. It is powerful to pray God’s Word. Horns in the Bible speak of power and authority. Pray that the usurping power of the wicked and those who are wanting to control humanity will be cut off and the authority of righteous men will be lifted up for righteousness exalts a nation. It is interesting that the golden altar of incense in the temple had four horns, one on each corner. And we know that the altar of incense represents prayer and praise. Let’s take up our authority in prayer. It is our greatest weapon of war. Pray as families together every day.
The deep state, the world economic forum, the great reset, and others want total jurisdiction over our lives. They are taking dominion over our bodies. We will no longer enjoy freedom unless we fight for it. We must resist all tyranny.
Amen! I love to pray the Scriptures when I am praying. I can’t pray anything more powerful than the Word of God. Join with me in praying this prayer and that all the lies and deception from the media and the government will be exposed and become powerless. Amen again
1 Peter 4:12-14 tells us not to be surprised at the fiery trials that come our way. Instead of complaining about them, this Scripture tells us to rejoice and be happy! Paul gloried in his tribulations knowing that they were working God’s character into his life (Romans 5:3-5). Be encouraged dear one. God will not let you go.
You can trust God for each new day. God doesn’t give you today what you need for tomorrow. He will give that to you tomorrow. Lay your head on the pillow and have a good sleep. Give all your worries and concerns to God. Stop worrying about them right now. Tomorrow you will wake with fresh wisdom, fresh strength, and understanding what you need to do. God‘s mercies and blessings and strength for each new day.
MOTHER OF TODDLERS
Oh, don't you love children? God loves them too! Apart from your salvation, they are the greatest blessing you can receive in life.
Satan is scared of mothers who know who they are and who know their purpose! He doesn’t want homebuilding mothers. He doesn’t want home teaching mothers. He doesn’t want mothers who want more children. Oh no! He wants to get His hands upon the children to influence them for His kingdom so he lures the mothers out of the home. Be aware of his tactics. Embrace your powerful calling of motherhood and you’ll make the devil scared!
Such a good reminder!
I was reading again in Philippians 2:7 how Jesus “made himself of no reputation and took upon himself the form of a servant.” I was arrested by the fact that no one made Jesus a servant. He made Himself a servant. He took upon Himself the position of a servant!
If you want to enjoy vitality, confess the joy of the Lord. If you grumble and complain and live in self-pity, you'll be miserable and tired!
...to feed our children’s bodies. We must feel their souls and spirits too. Don’t neglect feeding them with God’s nourishing food from His Word. It’s as important or even more important than their natural food.
