Thankful Homemaker: A Christian Homemaking Podcast

Maybe summer threw your routines off a bit, or life has just been full, and you’ve realized you haven’t been spending as much time in God’s Word as you’d like. I’m raising my hand here with you because it’s where I’ve found myself recently.

Sometimes the Bible reading plan that worked for us in one season just isn’t working in another. Maybe we need to simplify things a bit. Pick a time, pick a place, and pick a plan—and if you’ve gotten behind, you don’t have to catch up on everything you missed.

We don’t need the perfect plan or the perfect morning. We can just open our Bibles and begin again today. ❤️

Some mornings I sit down to pray and the words come easily. Other mornings, my Bible is open and my prayer list is in front of me, but my mind is already moving into the day ahead.

I’ve learned not to rush on those mornings. Sometimes I just need to pray for a while before I’m truly praying. Today I’m sharing a little encouragement for those times when our hearts are slow to settle before the Lord.

Practical help can make our days run more smoothly, but it cannot do the work that only Christ can do in us.

This episode is a reminder that Jesus is enough—not only for our salvation, but for every part of daily life. His grace is sufficient, and we can depend on Him in whatever He has placed before us today.

In Ephesians 1:3–14, Paul reminds us of all that is already ours when we belong to Christ. We have been chosen by the Father, redeemed by the Son, and sealed by the Holy Spirit—all according to the riches of God’s grace and to the praise of His glory.

In this episode, we’ll consider what it means to be blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ and how remembering these truths can help us when our circumstances are difficult, our plans don’t go as we hoped, or we’re tempted to focus on what we don’t have. Whatever today holds, if you belong to Christ, you are richly blessed in Him.

Most of our lives aren’t lived in extraordinary moments. They’re lived in ordinary ones.

We spend our days making meals, caring for our families, opening our homes, answering emails, paying bills, and taking care of all the responsibilities that come with everyday life. Because these are the things we do day after day, it’s easy to overlook their significance.

Yet Scripture reminds us that the Lord isn’t only accomplishing something through the work He’s given us to do. He’s also accomplishing something in us. He’s using the ordinary days He’s given us to make us more like Christ.
