Lilies and Manna

Consider the Sick Season

Perhaps one of the hardest things of motherhood is being sick.. in addition to caring for our sick children at the same time.
I hope today's episode can be a staple in your spiritual medicine cabinet, as a way to help you find the healing and strengthening power of the Savior even during your most challenging sick days.

Find them here or shop in person at the Holy Cow Market at the Lindon Utah Community Center from March 3rd-7th, where you can feel for yourself their extremely comfortable, lightweight and warm comfort pieces that would be especially appreciated during any sick season.

Manna for Kids - consider the bed

The first of my new podcast series.. Manna for Kids.
It is my hope that these episodes will not only make bedtime easier, but that it will help both parents and children live this verse..
Yea, when thou (and thy children) liest down at night, lie down unto the Lord, that He may watch over you (and your children) in your sleep..
 
Bedtime Manna Meditation starts at minute 4:20

Consider the Costume

As we help our children put on their costumes this year, I hope that it will be a time to remember Jesus Christ and how we can put on His armor in our everyday life as mothers. 

consider the salt- what are we willing to give up to become the salt of the earth?

Will we as mothers choose to become the salt of the earth..
or pillars of salt looking back on a life before our temple covenants?
