Help!

Published on by Kim

Too much to do? Are you overwhelmed? Busy women need many resources to handle responsibilities calmly and confidently. We do not need to walk alone and without tools.

Here are some comments from women who used personal coaching for their benefit.

IN their own words

Personal coaching gives you tools specifically suited for you and your life. Not everything works for everybody, but an experienced and knowledgeable coach will be able to help you know what will help you best.

Coaching also helps you stay encouraged as you learn and grow. We all need encouragement!

Every now and then we hit snags. A coach is a resource to call for solutions. You have a problem, but together you can have a solution.

This is about about empowering you to do all that you need to do. You can live calmly and confidently, with time to give the best of yourself to your family, and leave day after day of feeling overwhelmed behind you. This is possible, so take advantage of help along your way.

Contentment

Published on by Kim

Are you content?

Handling all your responsibilities day in and day out can be draining. Feeling drained can quickly tempt you to be discontent.

Fantastically beautiful pictures on social media and stories from friends about things they are doing, or things they have that you don’t have, can add up quickly as well.

Do you want what you don’t have today? Do you want a different life?

If so, then as Esther Engelsma says in How Can I Feel Productive as a Mom?, “it is time to strive for contentment.”

When we are happy with the gifts God has given us, we witness to the world that He is a good God. This glorifies Him. When we are not content with what He has given us, we witness to the world that we think He is not a good God, that He does not have the best interests of His people in mind, and that we don’t trust Him to make us happy.

Satan uses this issue of contentment to try to take God’s glory away.

So how do we fight back and glorify God and love Him with all that we are?

We trust God. We show quiet confidence in our Father, knowing that He loves us and has planned good for us in whatever our life holds. We remind ourselves of who He is and the promises He made that He will absolutely keep. We make ourselves stronger for the fight by feeding on His Word. We practice gratitude by thanking Him for what He has given us.

We obey God. We do the work he has called us to today. We love those He has placed in our lives. We follow the path of wisdom, knowing that God has given the best directions. We get up and move and get it done, even when we’d rather have a pity party or take a (very long) break.

We obey God all day long and then trust His wisdom when the allotted 24 hours runs out, knowing that He created the day and night, the work and rest cycle, and that only God can do everything.

It is as basic as “Trust and Obey” for this.
