• “Many do not recognize the fact as they ought, that Satan has got men fast asleep in sin and that it is his great device to keep them so. He does not care what we do if he can do that. We may sing songs about the sweet by and by, preach sermons and say prayers until doomsday, and he will never concern himself about us, if we don’t wake anybody up. But if we awake the sleeping sinner he will gnash on us with his teeth. This is our work – to wake people up.” – Catherine Booth

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.

Verse of the Day

But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins.” — Matthew 1:20-21 (NKJV)
