Who am I???

 With the name of blog I have I thought it was a good evaluation for my morning devotions..

Who am I ?

Super mom 1. Does or Abiding Woman 1. IS ( Psalm 46:10) 

Do I want to control it all or do I stop and realize that God is Sovereign and is in His hands?

As I think of the selling of the house, Andrew leaving in December and my unknown future I realize that I worry lots and get anxious of the unknown. I am a planner and like to know what is ahead and yet when the unexpected happens I am reminded that I am not in control. 

Prayer: Father forgive me for I am a doer and I don't want to be....I want to Abide in YOU and let go of the what ifs and the unknown future. You are in control and I give it to you this morning, selling of the house , Andrew returning to NJ and the many things I don't know. May the next couple of months be about resting on you and not on my understanding....AMEN

2. Super Mom Tries to Impress others or Abiding Woman 2. Pleases the Lord?

I long to please the Lord in all things and not others who will fail me. I want to be about living for God and not this world. Prayer: May my eyes stay fixed on you and not this world.

3. Super Mom controlled by agenda or Abiding woman 3. controlled by the Holy Spirit?

Agenda at times gets in the way of me doing Gods will because I am more concern of making sure things get done. This is an area I have been working on not because I planned it but because God in love has brought to me situations not planned and yet for me to get involved in. Prayer: Help me know when my agenda is yours and when to stop and allow you to be in control of my time and day.

4.Super Mom accomplishments or abiding women 4 Gods workmanship? So many times we get so caught up on what we do and not what the Lord wants us to do with us...for a long time I measured myself by my accomplishments...career, zip code , make of car , clothes and things but the Lord has stripped all of these from my life and taught me that it is in HIM and only HIM. I stay home with my children and live frugally and yet know that the blessings come from above and not me. I wait on him to show me the path.  Father: the road has been a painful one and at times one I have not wanted to walk and yet I see your hands all over it and thank you that today I long to live for you and not me!

5. Super mom perfect house or Abiding Women 5. Peace in God? I do like an orderly home and in the past that was my goal and without it I was a mess. But again with God bringing into my life 4 kids and many more in the way I have learned that perfect isn't all that important. Peace in God is definitely what I seek because storms and trials come in and out of my life and trust in God is the key to peace. 

6.Super mom discouraged by failure or Abiding Women 6.Gods strength is made perfect in weakness? I again have learned that I will always fail and that when I am weak God is strong...over time I have seen it and know this is TRUE!

7. Super mom PERFECT or Abiding Women 7.Grace over all? There was a time in my life that I longed to be perfect to fit in and be loved by the so called Christians...I wanted to prove that I was good and able but God exposed me and allowed me to see the prideful hearts.....I have stand alone for many years but  I have learned that GRACE is the Key to LOVE and that PERFECTION is of God! I have learned to extend grace and that it starts at home. 

8. Super mom teaches kids to be GOOD or Abiding Women 8. Teaches her children to be Godly? Again for many years I wanted Good kids and ones that many would love and yet with time I have learned that this does go away and that only God can make them into his image. I have learn to teach them to LOVE and Walk in God and not for others. That it is about GOD and not how they look in the eyes of man.

9. Supermom lack of spiritual fruit or Abiding women abide in Him...soak in the word , meditate and carry it with me so that my fruit can blossom and impact all those around me.

10. Super Mom does things with kids or Abiding women talks about the Lord and his things?

I am not good at doing things with my kids but I do tend to talk about God all the time and I pray that I would never stop and always teach them of HIS truths.

11. Super Mom perspective on things she sees or Abiding Women on things above? The Lord has allowed us to meet people that are going to see him in a young age and by allowing us to be under the teaching of man who focus on the things above our GOD.

12.Super mom busy or abiding women excellency? I love to focus on one thing at a time and do it well so my prayer is that it is do to my walk with God and not my pride.

This morning was a good time in the word as I was reminded of what the Lord wants of me and not what I should be doing!!! 

Father: Thank you for your love and grace. There are many areas that I need to work on and today I pray over them all. May my life be one that directs all to the cross and away from me! I long to be a light to those around me!

Bless my day and all I do,

Amen
