Have you ever struggled to rest in the Lord? Jesus said to take His yoke, because it was “easy and light,” and yet, most of us don’t know what that looks like.  Today, Heidi begins part one of a two-part series on “abiding.” If you’re in need of peace as we enter into this busy time of year, listen in and be encouraged!

More from The Busy Mom:

Hope in Our Heartache – God’s main concern isn’t our happiness. Happiness is temporary, fleeting, dependent on the circumstances or the moment. No, He’s concerned with our holiness. Because when we are holy, we ascribe glory to Him which is the entire reason we were created.  You see, God sees the big picture in our lives, and He can use anything to make us more like Him. Failure, hunger, depression, heartache, wayward children…

Prompted by Love, Inspired by Hope – The endurance needed for the days of mothering is inspired by hope.  The hope of good things to come if we don’t give up.  The hope that as we train our children, they will walk in the truth. It’s truly a hope that is prompted by love.
