A Day As A Mother - Don't Compromise It Away

A Day As A Mother - Don't Compromise It Away
By Iris Shamble

One thing I can say about being a mother-- no two days are ever alike. A day as a mother brings happiness, joy, tears, discipline, but most of all in it brings love. We mothers must be well prepared for each day. We must keep our minds and eyes open to changes and adversities that may happen. That is why it is so vital to apply the Word of God to our lives daily, so we can be equipped parents to raise children who will live productive lives.

As a mother and wife, there are times when I feel like "hey" I need a raise! If mothers were paid a salary for every position we hold, we would all be millionaires. Think about your days; you are a teacher, doctor, lawyer, taxi driver, vet, and volunteer.The list goes on and on.

We must be proud of being mothers, and be the best we can. The impact we have on our children is priceless! Even through the trying times of teen years, as we emmerse ourselves in the Word of God, seek true counsel and prayer, we can be victorious. Pretty soon we will look back at it and say,...Boy we made it!

As a mother, I must say, "I do love it"! Certain things have to be cultivated in our lives, but each and every mother has the God-given potential to be a great mother. Proverbs 31:11-12, The heart of her husband safely trusts her; So he will have no lack of gain. She does him good and no evil, all the days of her life...vs.15 She also rises while it is yet night, and provides food for her household...vs. 28 Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her. Most women can give birth to children, but how many can be called a "Great Mother?" When a woman becomes a mother, her life totally changes. To be there for your children is such a rewarding task

Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart. One important point I must make is whatever way we train our children that is the way they will go! Very important not to compromise when it comes to training your children. Always be willing to change. Each year you should grow, incorporate something different that wasn't there previously. Never let condemnation set in our lives. We do make mistakes in training our children, one thing I must add as we abide & are instructed by the word of God we cannot fail. I see many teenagers that have no sense of direction and no sense of real love.

Some parents have made the choice of having a career, money, education and other luxuries over their skills in parenting. There's nothing wrong with any of these things, but our children should not be compromised. A lot of our children are basically left to fend for themselves, because of the choices their parents make.

Because of the desire I have to see mothers be able to bring income into their home, while spending quality time with their family, "A Christian Mothers Guide" was birthed. On my site www.achristianmothersguide.com information is carefully selected. I spend valuable time searching to offer quality to those interested in a serious change in their lives. I want to save others the trouble and time I encountered at one time looking for a legitimate work-at-home job. Not only will you receive inspiration for living successfully; you will find legitimate work-at-home resources to help you on your way.

It's time to get back to the basics in parenting, so our children will not become menaces to society. A day as a mother is a day like no other: Every word your child says will always refer back to mother!

Life Coaching - A Personal Trainer to Help You With Life Choices Life Coaching - A Personal Trainer to Help You With Life Choices By Bridget Burns So really what is Life Coaching all about? Everyone loves a definition! So let's start with one! "Coaching is an equal, co-creative process between coach and client.

Finding the Right Mother's Day Gift Finding the Right Mother's Day Gift By Linda A. Rentschler As we approach Mother’s Day I recall the agony of trying to choose an appropriate gift for my departed mother. My mother was difficult to please, and this was never so evident as when she opened my gifts. Unlike the more Americanized mothers, mine was Italian and quick to express her feelings. One year I bought silk flowers in a small glass vase, because I knew real ones would never be welcome. Within an hour, my father phoned my apartment to ask me how much the gift cost. The entire arrangement was twenty-five dollars, but apparently the vase was tagged three dollars; my mother had looked underneath the gift, and was immediately insulted. My father tried to convince her that I didn’t undervalue he .. [Click to continue]

Life Is Drama Life Is Drama By Nola Redd "It's hard enough to write a good drama, it's much harder to write a good comedy, and it's hardest of all to write a drama with comedy. Which is what life is." - Jack Lemmon To most people, the life of a stay-at-home mom is severely lacking in drama. Even I tend to consider it fairly mundane. However, lately I've noticed a great deal of drama, and I'd like to discuss it while somehow working in my introduction. A quick background check on Nola Redd will find that I am a stay-at-home mom of three kids (ages five, three, and one and a half). I graduated from college in Atlanta, Georgia with a Bachelor's in both Creative Writing and Astrophysics. Like many other freelancer writers, writing has always been a lifelong dream of mine. ..
