• “He would not have me a spoilt child, therefore He has employed the rod; but all His corrections and rebukes have been in love.” – Mary Winslow

Determined and Creative by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 02/29/12

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: A mom’s work is never done. With middle-of-the-night feedings, endless laundry, and various sicknesses, how can a mom with little children spend time in prayer and the Word of God? I asked some older moms how they did it when their children were little.

“You have to be determined and creative.”

“I would ask God to protect those times. Children really need to know that it is a priority for you.”

“I remember a lot of times during those years rocking a sick child in my arms and bouncing another on my feet and turning on the Bible on cassette.”

“It may not be easy; but if you really, really want to meet with God, you will find a way to do it.”

Nancy: No matter how busy you are today, it’s crucial that you find time to meditate on God’s Word. That’s your lifeline! Pray with the psalmist who said, “I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.
