Meditation has become my time! With 3 kids and 1 on the way, mommy’s time has become more and more important to me to be able to take care of my family properly. Between the laundry, dishes, homeschooling and the list goes when you have kids and husband we need to take care of ourselves and make sure spiritual health is correct as much as our mental health.

Spiritual health is so important to me, and to keep that in check meditation on God is something that I need to keep first during my day. I have my Bible App that I open everyday, while I’m not perfect and sometimes it slips my mind until after getting everyone ready for the day I try to open it before everyone wakes up so I can truly be uninterrupted. Keeping that relationship will be the most important part of your daily life.

Sitting in quiet and listening to God speak is more important than all of the chatter we do on a daily basis. That is why we have one mouth and two ears! To listen! To listen and quiet our minds as to not react out of fear and panic. The time we are in is because not enough people are quieting their minds and listening and are reacting out of pure anxiety and panic. I suffer from this myself, which is the reason that this part of my day is so important.

Your meditation time is going to be different that the mine because we are different people in need of different things. Mine is strictly for quieting my mind and spending time listing to the Bible on audio and then a 10 minute session on my favorite app Insight Timer. You may have a different way of doing things and that is ok. Just understand as humans we are in a world of spiritual warfare that will eventually effect your household and your mood, so take care of that part of yourself.
