Joys of a Trad Mom

Visit my page! We discuss a traditional Christian lifestyle here and the joys that come with it! Soon to sell homestead products in the future 🙏🏻

This is a great prayer for wives and mothers. This short prayer has helped me stay focus on my religious vocation as a wife and a mother. I would love to pass it on to other wives and mothers to pray often.

Joys of Traditional Motherhood

How can we find true joy in the traditional role of being a wife and a mother?

To start with, we must always put God first. What could this look like? As we start to rise in the morning, before we get out of bed we must pray; say a short little “good day” to Our Lord and let Him know He is the first thing you think of! Speak to God your Heavenly Father. He loves you and wants you to come to Him. Our soul is the first thing we should take care of. Once you get up, allow yourself some time to make a coffee or a tea and spend 30 minutes of your morning in prayer and spiritual reading. Give your self this time to start your day off feeding your soul with the Word of God.

Second, we must take care of ourselves, our bodies. Our health is vital so we can serve God well. When our bodies are healthy, we feel better, we pray better, we work better and we serve others with more love. This includes eating and drinking for the nourishment of our bodies, and getting adequate exercise and don’t forget to stretch! Simply being able to stand straight up and touching you palms flat to the ground without bending you knees means your less likely to have cardiovascular disease.

Finally, we must use the rest of the day to serve others. As a wife, the first person you should think of is your husband. What needs does he have? Have you prayed for him? Have you helped him make his day easier so he can better be the head of the home?Then, we look to our children and the home to be sure they are well and the home is a place of peace. What can we do to meet the needs of our husbands, children and the home? How can we better be the Heart of the Home? Lastly, from here, we serve our neighbors.

As we reflect on these three simple approaches in finding true joy in the life and role of a traditional homemaker, I will discuss in my next article each step in more detail.
Joysofatradmom.com will discuss these subjects and much more that comes with the life God has instructed for us as wives, as mothers, as homemakers, as having the title of being the “Heart of the Home”.
May the Almighty God bless you and bring you peace and true Joy! Dominus Vobiscum
