Where do you turn when you need help?
First and foremost it’s important to turn to God’s Word for guidance and direction.
Proverbs 1:7 – The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. (New International Version – NIV)
So many great resources are available today to guide us along the path in our role as a mother.
Now that my daughters are grown and have children of their own I am amazed at how many of the resources I still use. This shows me that no matter what stage you are in as a mom – good advice lasts a lifetime.

WEBSITES or BLOGS
Here is a website that is loaded with audio resources with solid biblical teaching. Many of the presenters are from years past but the information on them is valuable, biblical and life changing.
Take a morning or afternoon when you can “squeeze” in some alone time and head to your favorite coffee spot with your electronic device, headphones and notebook and soak up the wisdom found in this library that contains a wealth of information on many subjects relating to walking as a Christian in the world today. Most presentations are 60 minutes in length.
