Moms Need to Deschool to.

Deschooling: "You need to ‘detox’ the children from what they learned in the school system. Actually, as parents,  we also need to detox  from our years spent in the school system! Deschooling refers to the period (6 weeks to 3 months) after you have taken your child out of school. Some homeschooling parents also use this term for when they are “taking a break” (although this would be more accurately described as unschooling) or are transitioning from one curriculum choice to another. Deschooling is similar to detoxing which we know from health sources as a time for changing diet, cutting out junk food, removing unwanted toxins from the human body. Deschooling  is a time where you allow your children freedom and space with  no academic work  to detox themselves of the school system." Taken from  Footprints on our land curriculum website .

How To Love Our Children Well

Image
"that they (older women) admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children , to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good......" Titus 2:4-5 Yahweh God teaches women in the scriptures that we need to love our children, He asks the older women within a congregation to teach young women to love their children. Since we need be taught this, it means that we have an ability to neglect our children. When I think of neglected children, the picture of struggling children, roaming the streets comes to my mind, they look as if they need a good wash, some decent clothes, and a warm meal to eat. I quickly think to myself "my children are not neglected", they are fed, clothed and sleep in a warm bed.... BUT there is so much more to a child than just that. When my 5th child was a few months old, Yahweh God gave me a dream, in the dream there was a group of children, very well dressed, different ages. They were conversating with one another, some had cellphones ...

Are Contraceptives and Sterilization Okay?

Image
  This post is connected to the post I put out earlier today: The Blessing of Children.  Some women experience some degree of infertility due to hormonal birth control use, using it for many years, and when they want to conceive it takes very long, or worse, it has lifelong effects. Some mothers actually put their daughters on birth control from the age of 13 years old, by the time they get married, they struggle to conceive. Some women (young and old) have said to me that they regret getting sterilized. Because I have many children, it is fascinating to some, and I often end up in a conversation about conception to a woman, so I've heard many different stories, from women who have walked this road. Be careful about contraceptives and sterilization, don't make a decision right after you have just given birth, obviously at that stage you will be thinking "never again". If you would like to learn more about the dangers of hormonal birth control, you can watch an intervi...

Understanding The Blessing of Children

Image
  This post is dedicated to children (especially my own 💕). May you know that you are deeply loved and chosen by Yahweh God. No mistakes in the Kingdom, but you are called from the womb to live out His will in this earth. " For You are my hope, O Yahweh God; You are my trust from my youth. By You I have been upheld from birth: You are He who took me out of my mother's womb. My praise shall be continually of You.  I have become as a wonder to many, But You are my strong refuge. Let my mouth be filled with Your praise and with your glory all day." Psalm 71:5-8 One of the saddest things within the body of Messiah is the zero understanding of why we are called to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28). Do we know why we have children? Have you ever sat with a group of mothers, or even one or two mothers who DID NOT complain about how hard mothering is or complain about her children (me included) ......you probably have not experienced that. When asked, "do you want mor...
