See you April 2nd.

Happy Monday loves. Due to some thought my new co-partner Sarah and I have decided to take a 1 month break from Arrows and warriors to just seek after God's heart and get vision for what He wants us to do. We know He has so many amazing plans for A&W ministry and we want to seek after Him with all of our hearts so that we can see His big dreams come to pass. We'll be back April 2nd with a bigger vision, more encouragement and even some surprises!!! And until then you can follow me on my personal blog Blessed by arrows to get some extra encouragement.

 Much love- Heather & Sarah.

Where is Your Ministry?

I see you sitting there with your third cup of coffee, brain still foggy from sleep or lack there of, shoving the baby’s paci back in her mouth for the seventeenth time because let’s face it, it is far too early for crying. Your brain just can’t process it yet.

You log onto Facebook and the first thing you see is that your church is in need of volunteers for a special event coming up. Immediately guilt creeps in because you just can’t minister the way you used to. You think surely God must be disappointed in you because you just aren’t able to be on the worship team anymore or come in on a Saturday to help with your church’s food pantry.

Well mama, let me tell you something that it’s taken me almost three years to get through my head.

It’s okay.
 This season with your babies is so fleeting. They are only tiny for so long.

These babies, your day to day activities, THESE are your ministries right now.

Every time you wipe a chocolate covered face, kiss an owie, read a story for the 400^th time you are sowing into your babies’ lives.

Matthew 25:40New Living Translation (NLT)

40 “And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters,[a] you were doing it to me!"

Every time you smile at a cashier, tip your waitress a little more than they deserved, let someone pull in front of you in traffic-you’re a ministry.

Every time you pray for a person over Facebook you’ve never met, encourage a friend going through a rough time, take your babies to great grandma’s house to bring her some joy-you’re a ministry.

So mama’s remember, just because you stay at home doesn’t mean what you’re doing isn’t significant to the Kingdom. It’s the little everyday moments that end up making the biggest difference.

Your everyday life is your ministry, so who says being a stay at home mama doesn’t matter?
