EVERY MOMent COUNTS!
While I was writing my memoir, Once Upon A Child, I recounted many moments I had as a little girl that have shaped my thought process as an adult. For example, I was a very strong-willed little person who loved challenges. I wanted to learn how to ride a bicycle without training wheels when my [...]
We’ve all been there: those “I Know This Is My Quiet Time But My Brain/To-Do List/Kid Feels Very LOUD” moments. There’s that desire… which on days like these, can start to feel like pressure… to have pacified souls like Mary though our lives are shouting, full of Martha demands. So here are a few suggestions [...]
As I worked to clean the kitchen, I caught a glimpse of a poster eldest received at a special Girl Scout event a few weeks ago. For the 100th year celebration of Girl Scouts, Cowboy Stadium had hosted a big event, at which the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders were present and signed autographs. So, in our [...]
Editor’s Note: The following is a guest post by our own Suzanne. We all remember where we were that day, September 11, 2001. But do you remember where you were September 9, 2001? My friend, Cindy does, because she was attending worship services in the Brooklyn Tabernacle in New York City, listening to a sermon [...]
My husband and I are currently praying faithfully for three couples who are in significant marital stress. Affairs are going on in all three. Our son told us about several friends of his, all in their 30s, who are quitting on marriage. Sadly it is such a common occurrence that we are usually not shocked by the news. We shrug [...]

Several weeks ago, I wrote a post suggesting prayers for the people of Egypt. Now it is Japan, though for very different reasons. An application that is appropriate for we who are currently living in safety. Watching the 24/7 news channels can make one depressed. The images are beyond comprehension, unimaginable tragedy, though our eyes tell us it [...]
The New Testament is full of them. The blind seeing. The lame walking. The sinful made miraculously emotionally well. Miracles. We long for them. And despite the fact that Jesus promised we’d do even greater things than he did, I find that all too often, the average American Christian mom is weighed down by the depression [...]
Recently, someone gave me a small book about true worship — a little book with a big and powerful message. Worship, as defined, is showing reverence, admiration, or intense love for someone or something. I find that my greatest expression of worship is toward God and is regularly expressed at church service. My church attendance is an [...]
Many of you who read MomLife Today are looking for survival tips for daily life in your home; surviving riots, looting, and church bombings isn’t on your radar, thankfully. What’s happening in Egypt is a distant news item for most of us. I understand. I remember vaguely the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979 and 1980 because I [...]
