Christian Mamas

Anyone looking to learn more about the feasts of the Bible? Like Passover, Pentecost or Yom Kippur?

My mum and I are very close but as of lately it’s been so hard being pregnant around her. My husband and I relocated to another country for his job and my hope was that I would build my career there and get international experience but that didn’t work out and I ended up moving back home with pressure from my parents, that I need to get my career together for the last few months of his contract with my now 2 years old. So I was now out of work for 2 years (due to maternity leave and relocating an additional year). I moved back home but and got a job but that didn’t work out because I was now pregnant again and I couldn’t keep taking time off for my antenatal appointment so they let me go( I never told them I was 6 months pregnant).

Fast forward to now I have a supportive husband who actually gives me money monthly to motivate me but my mum has now told me that I need to get it together and not depend on him. I am 34 months pregnant and she says I should find a job now and then soon as the baby is born return to work within 3 days and she will help me look after the second child as she’s not working now. She wants me to get a data job that she sees my sister doing and she started calling all her friends to find out how I can start.

I have been dealing with self esteem issues (this was never an issue until we were an expat family and I had to deal with my mum projecting this in me) so watching my husband’s career rise and my parents making me feel like a failure and making it seem like my husband will leave me for someone who has their career together in the future ( as my mum told me men respect women who have it together). I told my mum yesterday that i would like for her to stop speaking about my career and projecting this on me as I am in a Vulnerable place and this has caused me. Anxiety and worry but she didn’t take it well and told me to get out that it’s my life I can do as I please. But she later texted me apologising but things have been pretty awkward and we are staying in my parents house for 3 days a week till we find a house as my husband has just relocated back) i also make sure I pay them but I don’t know I guess I’m posting for some godly and not so much worldly advice. Sorry if this is too long

So my husband and I were raised with no religion. We've decided we'd like to explore christianity and are looking at various churches local to us to see which one suits us best, going to bible study groups and looking to put our kids in the youth program attatched to whichever church we choose. Our families, however will take a dim view on this and will assume we're being indoctrinated, bible bashers, weird etc we're both very close to our families but religion is something they just arent interested in so will struggle to understand our want/need to have religion in our lives. How do we navigate this? Its not as simple as just cut off anyone that doesnt agree with what we want to do.

Hey mamas 💗

I’ve been craving more real, life giving connection lately, especially with other Christian women.

If you’ve been wanting a friend to talk about Jesus, marriage, motherhood, business, or just life in general… I’m your girl 🤠

I’d love to have someone to chat with, send scriptures throughout the day, encourage each other, and just do life alongside in a more intentional way.

And honestly, if more than a few of you feel the same, we could even start a group chat 🫶🏼

I just really want to be surrounded by Christ centered, uplifting women who speak life over each other. If that’s you, message me!! 🩵

Im in like the pits rn with this spiritual warfare im having really bad intrusive thoughts and they are trying to make me think bad of God and make me think they are my own thoughts even though its not and I dont believe anything it tells me but I feel such guilt and its weighing me down :((
