Who has time to make homemade taco seasoning?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used to be a skeptic about homemade anything. Why make it when you can get it at the store for so cheap?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used to be the kind of person that stocked up on $0.50 taco seasoning packets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that I’ve learned how easy it is to make my own and tasted the difference in flavor, I will never go back.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A mother’s prayer<\/a> is a simple daily prayer that moms can use to ask God for help to be their best EVERYDAY, while also trying to love and serve her family well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used to think I had my life all together, then I became a wife and saw so many of my flaws and how selfish I am. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, I became a mother and saw even more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We see our imperfections daily and our desperate need for Jesus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is so easy to be \u201ctoo busy\u201d for God, but getting time alone with Him everyday is VITAL. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like to start my morning with devotions before all the motherhood duties call, laundry, breakfast, diaper changes, the list goes on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a good morning routine<\/a> and getting up before my kids helps my mornings go so much better! Here are a few more tips on being a productive mother<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A MOTHER’S PRAYER FOR HERSELF<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are three main areas that I like to focus on when I pray. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first is myself. You can’t pour from an empty cup, or so the saying goes. The best way to fill up that cup is to ask God for help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank the Lord for giving you children, they truly are a gift from the Lord. Psalm 127:3 states that “Children are a gift from the Lord, they are a reward from him.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pray for grace in the ways that you will disappoint the Lord today. Thank him that his mercies are new every morning<\/strong>, as Lamentations 3:23 tells us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ask the Lord to help you be a supportive wife that respects her husband<\/strong>. Find ways daily to prioritize your husband so he feels loved and valued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pray specifically for patience and wisdom<\/strong> because being a parent is not easy and we need God’s help. Psalm 46:1 confirms that “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. (NLT)” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A MOTHER’S PRAYER FOR HER CHILDREN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The last thing I pray is for my kids, collectively and individually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pray that your children can grow to know God as their savior.<\/strong> “Start your children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.\u201d Proverbs 22:6<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ask the Lord that your children will obey you as their mother and your husband.<\/strong> Ephesians 6:1 commands, “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As your kids get older, you can ask for specific prayer requests from each of your kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
