"walk in wisdom.."

Happy Mom Monday...........             There are soo many opportunities throughout a day to "Show our annoyance" as a mom (or any other role we are in). Listen to the word of God:   " A FOOL SHOWS HIS ANNOYANCE AT ONCE, but a prudent woman overlooks an insult." Proverbs 12:16   As tempting as it might be to show our annoyance, it actually makes US look like a fool. Isn't it more beautiful and attractive to see a mom who is patient and able to overlook some things or be gentle in dealing with those annoyances rather than easily irritable.   " Love is patient, it is not rude, it is not easily angered (irritated)......"1 Corinthians 13:4     As we go about our day mothering our children, may we do it with much WISDOM.   "She who walks in WISDOM is kept safe." Proverbs 28:26   We have the opportunity THIS DAY to not only bless our children with our walking in wisdom, but to reveal the GLORY OF GOD. All of HiS ways are soooo attractive and a blessing to Him and the souls around us. Who knows who we might draw to the Lord through our "momming" today????   My prayer for us today:            Oh Father, You have given us the greatest joy and responsibility to love, nurture, teach and train these precious creatures of yours. You don't promise us another day of this great honor. May we be moms who walk in wisdom for the sake of YOUR NAME. All of your commands lead to life, peace, more beauty, more joy, and more love. They are not burdensome ("And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world." 1 John 5:3). May we die to our annoyances that our children and others might live. LOVE THE WORLD THROUGH US, GOD!!! Amen. "I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith, so that through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow on account of me." Phillipians 1:25 & 26
