Episode 284 // Want the key to enjoying family life? It’s not a secret. In fact, it’s right in Ephesians 5, in a short and simple passage we’ll be looking at together today. The Lord tells us to “be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise.” He gives us opportunities to love our family and deepen our relationships - this is how we enjoy them more! He makes his will known to us in the Bible, and when we are wise, we pay attention and live it out. Of course, simple does not mean easy. “The days are evil,” the same Bible passage tells us. Family relationships include miscommunication, disappointment, stress, and overwhelm. We live in a busy, distracting world. So let’s come together today for some biblical encouragement in how to “be very careful,” to be wise, and to live intentionally in ways that honor our Lord, bless our family, and bring us greater joy. This is Part 3 of our series “Intentional Living As A Christian Mom.” Let’s dive in. hugs & blessings, Jess RESOURCES FOR YOU FREE: Get my free Christian mom journaling prompts PDF!
