This weekend we had a conference at church to help us with our discipleship and small group ministries. We were blessed to have a very gifted and humble man, Tim Miller of Sevier Hights Baptist Church who leads a collegiate group of 1000+ come to speak and encourage us.

He was speaking specifically to us regarding our small groups, but the implications also apply to us as moms, don't you think? Here are some of his points.....
Reflecting the purpose and personality of Jesus (to my children and to other moms):
1. Wakes me up in the morning (even at 6 or 2am!)
2. Give me meaning to the mundane (diaper changes and making PB&Js)
3. Helps me to say "no" (to non-kingdom things that exhaust my resources so that I can have energy to say "yes" to my kids)
more to come on my notes from this conference later...... right now, I have to make my sweet energetic kids some dinner!
