She spoke about how we can find our fire in rest, and reminded us that God validates us as moms.
What we are doing is important! The rest that God wants for us is to be before Him and to see what God is doing in our hearts and lives.
* God loves you!
* You are doing an amazing job!
* God wants us to abide in Him, even in this! That is true rest!
* God wants you to read and do His Word.
Some books that Bomi mentioned/recommended were:
"She's Still There: Rescuing the Girl in You" by Chrystal Evans Hurst
"Teaching from Rest: A Homeschooler's Guide to Unshakable Peace" by Sarah Mackenzie
"Find Rest: A Woman's Devotional For Lasting Peace in a Busy Life" by Shaunti Feldhahn"The Daughter's Walk" by Jane Kirkpatrick (fiction novel she mentioned in her talk)
We are so thankful for our small groups and the opportunity they give us to get to know each other on a more personal level!
