MOMents

So I started a book called MOMents. It is to help moms find Christ in the everyday moments of life. The first chapter is about aligning our thoughts with Christ because as Isaiah says "For my thoughts are not your thoughts". The author talks about how along those lines we need to look at ourselves how Christ would see us. Christ doesn't look at us mom's as a person who has bags under her eyes from waking up at 2:30 am and not going back to sleep. He doesn't see that my closet is mostly t-shirts and jeans. He doesn't see that my house is a mess not 5 minutes after vacuuming it. What he does see and what I feel his thoughts are when he looks at me is a mom who despite her own wants and needs puts those aside to comfort his children when they have a bad dream. He sees someone who is trying teach her kids about who Heavenly Father is and what they can become through him. He sees a woman who shows unconditional love to those around her.
My stripping away what I think of myself and what others think of me and just focusing on aligning my thoughts with those of Christ I am hoping that the spirit can be more in our home!
