Hi friends,
I hope you are being blessed and encouraged by what you read. Spur on and fight the good fight. Our home is a battlefield of spiritual warfare and if we don't fight for joy, everyone in our homes suffer. But in Christ we have all we need and the joy of the Lord is our strength.

Motherhood Was Created By and For the Son of Man by Gloria Furman
"Everything we lack is found in him. And when we’re exhausted, when we feel the dusty earth of the Calvary road, we can remember that it’s especially then that the life of Jesus is manifested in us (2 Corinthians 4:10). It’s then that Jesus gives us more of himself, proving over and over that he is enough, that he is good, that there is more joy in him than in the grain and wine that abound (Psalm 4:7)—or in the kids who never make messes and the dinner that prepares itself and the schedules that operate seamlessly. He is better."

Never Let Her Grieve or Rejoice Alone by Jessalyn Hutto at Desiring Virtue
"We must battle our natural tendencies of isolation, self-preservation, and self-focus, instead seeking to live in the unity of spirit Christ has made possible through the cross. We must seek to rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep."
