Your Prayers DO Impact Generations {And 5 Things to Pray}

Do your prayers matter—not just for today or this year—but for generations? Can the prayers you pray today and the faith steps you take this week impact your descendants 100 years from now? Yes, they can!

We all want to know our prayers matter, but sometimes our greatest prayers may not be answered until our life on earth is done. In fact, you may think you're praying about one thing, but God might use those prayers greater in the lives of your descendants than your own. How do I know?

I have a few stories to share.

If you’re like most moms, there never seem to be enough hours in the day. At the end of the day, do you find yourself exhausted with laundry yet to be done and dishes piled in the sink? Are you tired of feeling like life is one big juggling act? Here are 7 ways to get more done every day.

Let's be honest. The disciplines of exercise and scripture memorization are hard, right? We all know we need to be more diligent in these areas but to consistently keep them in our daily routines are such a challenge! Good news! I've got a 5-week challenge to help you sharpen in both of these areas--introducing, the 4th annual "Living+ Active" challenge!

You know that point where you just KNOW you are about to snap? 

Last week was our first week back homeschooling, and the week my husband was gone every night, and the week I was a tad hormonal (if you get my drift) and so on. By Wednesday, when my husband returned home (at 8:15pm), I grabbed the keys and jetted out of the house. I had no idea where I was actually going; I just knew I needed to leave!

I really hate feeling like that. I love my kids, and I am, truly, living my dream life. 

My third child of five teeters on the edge of turning the BIG 1-3.  Thirteen.

Actually, her birthday is still months away.  But to hear her talk about the plans, the party, and the anticipated hoopla, one would think it is next week.  

With two sisters ahead of her, this Mama is no longer phased by the endless chatter of plans surrounding this very important-to-her date.
