She Builds Her House

  "Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you" Psalm 55:22 God does not command us to feel good about His word but to believe it.  No one told us that being a mom would not be an easy peasy lemon squeezy. I think that if they would have told us we would still be moms because we would not believe them and because we can not stop watching them growing, singing, and smiling. ( yep, those moments happen  every day!)   No one told us that we were going to be under a lot of stress and emotional turmoils so we were not prepared. And still, some moms are still trying to figure out how to do this job called: Being a mom. Who cares if you are still trying to manage your morning job with your responsibilities as a mom? Who cares when you cry trying to prove to the world that SAHM do work? Who cares when you don't know just what to do. . .Jesus, Jesus cares.  Thankfully, we can boldly say: Jesus, you understand me. I know you care about this or that.I don't ha...

Difficult children make unhappy parents and encourage negative parenting. Adults who lack self-confidence as parents end up being despised by their children. These parents desperately try to appease their children's misbehavior through play and fun. In a home without rules, children do what they want. Children can also sniff a parent fearful of them and the result of this is deep contempt. Children love power games and for them, disrespect and contempt get along together which is the opposite of affection and discipline. Parents' goal should be to express genuine love to their children; dedication combined with reasonable discipline; define limits and set their leadership. Remember what the word of God says:  "Correct your son and he will give you rest, and he will give joy to your soul." Proverbs 29:17 Also, remember that disciplining your children is not physically abusing them by brutally punishing them. References: Coon, D., & Mitterer, J.O. (2016). Introducti...

The biggest gift that you can give to your children will not be your home or your bank account. The greatest gift that you can give to your children is your time. Parents today are so busy with work and school that there is no more time to share with their children. The world tells us when we should be mothers and how many children we should have but it tells us that taking care of children is wasting our time and that only rich people are happy. So, we see parents working 16 hours a day to achieve that coveted happiness; meanwhile, there is a son alone at home with a desire to talk. Your child does not need you to stop working and spend 24 hours a day, but he does need a little quality of time where he can tell you about his friends, his favorite shows, and those important things in life.  Having family time keeps your children away from bad decisions. According to studies, the ladies who remain virgins until marriage have had excellent communication with their mothers and a very ...

According to the Early Child Care Research Network, you can enroll your child in a quality daycare without fearing of dangerous consequences. What is important to avoid is to enroll the child in a low-quality facility and to avoid for the baby having to spend long hours under the care of third parties (even when it is a quality daycare). This fact added to the neglect of the parents about the child when they get home can have serious consequences in the mother-father-child relationship. Poor quality child care can create problems that previously did not exist in the child. If you are looking for a daycare for your child it is important to take into account the following: * There has to be a small group of children under the care of one caregiver. * The caregivers of this place must be trained. * Minimum staff turnover within the daycare. In accordance with the above, you can enroll your child in daycare while maintaining the same attachment with your child. At the same ti...

Many are the brides that experience a drop in self-esteem before marriage. Luckily, a bride won't need a designer wedding dress to build her self-esteem neither she will need to spend hundreds of dollars to hire the best stylist in town. A bride's s elf-esteem begins with the security of having a loving husband. You are already beautiful to the eyes of the man that you love. The man that is close to marrying you. The great advice that I can offer you is that instead of highlighting all of the things that you don't like about your body,  highlight the physical features that you like the most and invest some money in showing them up. For example, if you have beautiful lips, invest some money to buy a special lipstick or lipgloss. Indeed, you will have boosted your self-esteem by the end of the day.  Another great advice to boost your self-esteem is by having a quality of time for you. Treat yourself for a day in the spa, a massage or just have some coffee with your...
