So many times as Moms we throw away their dreams just because we are moms this episode is encouragement to every Mom to Dream Again. Cast your net again.  A few tips for dreaming again and building up that vision include: 

 

• Build Your Confidence. One reason we stop dreaming as moms is that we don’t really believe we can accomplish those dreams. Somehow when we become mamas, we lose confidence in who we are without kids.
• Start a “Dream Journal” Journaling is all the rage these days, and with 1,532 types of journals out there it can feel overwhelming. But if you find yourself lost in motherhood, having a notebook designated for ideas and dreams can be so helpful.
• Read books and listen to Ted Talks. Exposing ourselves to different viewpoints and opinions expands our own mental capacity. What you dwell on, you become.
• Surround yourself with women who are encouraging and uplifting       Connect with me on Instagram. We are almost at 10K www.instagram.com/momentsofjoypodcast

Whats is the definition of being consistent? Its described as being dependable and of the same quality. On today's episode we are diving into be consistent and what is looks like in this season. Many are right on the brink of their blessings. Galatians 6:9 declares"Let us not grow weary in well doing for in due season we will reap if you faint not."

So often as Moms we find ourselves wrapped in worry, guilt and fear. Thoughts like, did i make the right decision, will my kids be alright, Am I doing enough and so many more invade our minds. Take a second to breathe and make it a deep breath. We cant worry and trust God at the same time. So be strong! Trust in the lord with all of your heart.
