I was at a moms group recently and we were talking about ways that we can have a better overall perspective at where we are at in our mothering journey. These could put into place for every area of our life though.
The three points were -
Having a Teachable attitude. Being open to what others - whom we trust and seek counsel from - have to say to us. Really hearing what our little ones need or what they are saying to us. And of course being open to hearing from and listening to what God is teaching us, or trying to show us.
Having a Thankful heart. Living in a state of thankfulness for all that we have. Not allowing 'if only' and 'as soon as.... I will/I can' to get in our way and be our mindset.
Having an Eternal perspective on life. Saying no to things that are good so that we can say yes to things that are better. Letting go of our fear and living for Christ no matter what.
As we talked about these different areas in our lives I knew which ones are a challenge for me - being more teachable and having an eternal perspective on life. I think being more intentional with my choices plays a big role in these two areas. Now to implement that!
I'd love to hear your thoughts. We all struggle in areas of our life, everyone is different, but when we can see those areas and make changes with Christ's help thats when the real transformation of our mind and attitude take place!
