Christian Moms of Many Blessings
Our goal is to encourage and strengthen Christian stay at home moms, particularly those with many blessings (children) in their day to day walk. Our desire is that we will all submit, obey, and grow closer to our Lord Jesus Christ so He may say, Well done good and faithful servant. And as scripture says, we need to be like iron sharpening iron. Whether you have one or 21 children, we warmly welcome you! Behold, children are a gift of the Lord; the fruit of the womb is a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior, so are the children of one's youth. How blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them; they shall not be ashamed, when they speak with their enemies in the gate. Psalm 127:3-5
