Work At Home Moms - Double The Work And Double The Reward!
Moms have a ton of work to do each day, and work at home moms (WAHMs) usually have double the workload. There's just too much to do...and not enough time to do it. Right? :o) Before we dive into a new business, we need to make sure our priorities are aligned with God's Word. that means... #1 is God and our daily walk with Him. #2 is our husband - our top human priority. #3 is our children - our little blessings who need God's guidance and discipline. #4 is our work - at home or away from home. #5 is prayer and strengthening our spiritual defenses. #6 is our Ministry - using our gifts and reaching the World with God's love. (See Ephesians 5:1-6:18) Take a look at the first three priorities. These alone can keep us pretty busy! So, how can you possibly fit "work at home mom" into your other priorities? It can be done! Here are some ideas... ~ Wake up early to work before your family rolls out of bed (Proverbs 31:15). ~ Get your babies and toddlers onto a nap schedule, and work while they sleep in the afternoon. ~ Drop off your older kids at school, complete your chores, and work until you leave to pick them up. ~ Set aside one day or afternoon per week to work, while your kids spend time with grandparents or friends. ~ Make an agreement with your hubby to work 1-2 hours each night, or certain nights, and/or during the weekends. If you have the motivation, you can make it happen! Take a look at your schedule, chisel out some time to work, find the right business
(see our Company Directory!)
, and give it a try. It may be double the work, but its also double the reward. Why? Because you can supplement your family's income and keep your priorities to God, husband, and kids FIRST. Just be sure to constantly re-evaluate your priorities and make sure they are all good. :o) For more information, encouragement, and motivation -
