    24. Come Follow Me June 8- 14; 1Samuel 8-10; 13; 15-16; Come Follow Me Scripture Study; Bible Study; LDS Moms; The Lord Looketh on the Heart

    Come, Follow Me Moms Podcast June 8–14 | 1 Samuel 8–10; 13; 15–16 "The Lord Looketh on the Heart" Hey mamas! This week we dive into one of the most powerful transitions in the Old Testament as Israel moves from judges to kings. We meet Saul, watch him rise, watch him fall, and then meet a young shepherd named David. At the center of these chapters is a question that still matters today: Who is sitting on the throne of your heart? Israel wanted a king, even though they already had God leading them. Saul was looking for lost donkeys when God was preparing a kingdom. David was overlooked by everyone except the Lord. This week we talk about: ❤️ Who is your king? ❤️ What does God see? ❤️ Can God open our eyes? In This Episode ✨ Why Israel demanded a king and what that teaches us about modern distractions and misplaced priorities ✨ Saul's search for lost donkeys and how God often works through ordinary errands, ordinary days, and ordinary people ✨ What it means that God gave Saul "another heart" ✨ Why partial obedience is still disobedience ✨ How fear, comparison, culture, and public opinion can become our kings if we're not careful ✨ The powerful invitation to pray: What am I doing that I should stop doing? What am I not doing that I should start doing? ✨ David's calling and one of the most beloved verses in scripture: "Man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart." (1 Samuel 16:7) ✨ Why God sees more than labels and appearances ✨ How to see ourselves, our children, and others the way Jesus sees them ✨ The importance of reaching out when someone comes to mind and following spiritual promptings to encourage others Key Takeaways Anything that takes God's place can become our king. God often uses ordinary moments to accomplish extraordinary purposes. We are always obeying something—the question is who or what. God is more interested in changing our hearts than changing our circumstances. The Lord sees potential where others see limitations. You may feel overlooked by people, but you are never overlooked by God. Questions to Take to the Lord This Week Who is my king? What is receiving my attention, devotion, time, and heart? Open my eyes. Help me see myself, my children, and others the way You do. What am I doing that I should stop doing? What am I not doing that I should start doing? Family Home Evening Idea This week our family is making simple prayer jars! Write prayer prompts on slips of paper and place them in a jar to keep by your bed. Pull one out each day and pray for: Friends Family Missionaries Someone who is struggling Guidance Peace Gratitude The Spirit Courage Forgiveness A simple reminder that we can take everything to our Heavenly Father. Conference Talks Mentioned "Eyes to See" — Sister Michelle D. Craig "We Are His Children" — Elder Christophe G. Giraud-Carrier "Think Celestial" — President Russell M. Nelson Favorite Quotes from This Episode "God doesn't call the impressive. He often calls the willing." "While Saul was searching for donkeys, God was preparing a kingdom." "The world is obsessed with appearance. God is focused on the heart." "You may feel overlooked by people, but you are never overlooked by God." "Ordinary people become extraordinary when they allow God to work through them." Final Thought Mama, maybe you feel like David this week. Overlooked. Underestimated. Still out in the field tending sheep. Keep showing up. Keep praying. Keep serving. Keep trusting. Because the same God who saw a king inside a shepherd boy sees something beautiful inside of you. The world saw a shepherd. God saw a king. The world saw Saul's height. God saw David's heart. The world sees labels. God sees His children. So this week, stop asking: "What do people see when they look at me?" And start asking: "What does God see?" Because His view is the one that matters most. ❤️ Come, Follow Me Moms Podcast with Cassie Moore Helping busy LDS moms grow closer to Christ through simple, faith-filled scripture study.

    23. Come, Follow Me; June 1- 7, Ruth - 1Samuel 1-7; Come Follow Me Scripture Study; Bible Study; LDS Moms; Ruth; Naomi; Hannah; God works in the Waiting

    Come, Follow Me Moms Podcast Ruth; 1 Samuel 1–7 From Empty to Full: God Works in the Waiting Hey mamas! Welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms! This week we are studying the beautiful stories found in the book of Ruth and 1 Samuel 1–7. We meet three incredible women—Naomi, Ruth, and Hannah—and a little boy named Samuel. Each of them teaches us something powerful about faith, trust, courage, and waiting on the Lord. One theme kept standing out to me all week: God works in the waiting. Naomi waited through grief. Ruth waited through uncertainty. Hannah waited through years of unanswered prayers. Samuel waited to recognize God's voice. The wise virgins waited for the bridegroom. And yet God was working in every one of their stories. Isn't that what motherhood often feels like? Waiting. Praying. Hoping. Trusting. This week we talk about what it means to trust God when life doesn't look the way we expected and how He can take what feels empty and make it full again. In This Episode • Naomi's journey from fullness to emptiness—and how God wasn't finished with her story. • Ruth's incredible loyalty, faith, and willingness to follow God into the unknown. • Boaz as a symbol of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. • Why Ruth's story is one of redemption, covenant, and hope. • Hannah's years of waiting and what we can learn from her faithful prayers. • What it means to truly "pour out your soul before the Lord." • Samuel learning to hear God's voice and how we can recognize God's voice in our own lives. • Amy A. Wright's General Conference message Abide the Day in Christ and the Parable of the Ten Virgins. • How spiritual oil is gathered one small act of faith at a time. • The comforting message of the hymn Be Still, My Soul. Favorite Scriptures Discussed Ruth 1:16–17 "Whither thou goest, I will go..." Ruth 1:20–21 "I went out full, and the Lord hath brought me home again empty." Ruth 4:15 "Thy daughter in law, which loveth thee, which is better to thee than seven sons..." 1 Samuel 1 Hannah pours out her soul before the Lord. 1 Samuel 3:10 "Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth." Matthew 25 The Parable of the Ten Virgins. A Message for Moms Maybe you're waiting for answers. Waiting for healing. Waiting for peace. Waiting for direction. Waiting for a relationship to improve. Waiting for a miracle. This week's scriptures remind us that God is often doing His greatest work while we wait. The same God who provided for Ruth. The same God who restored Naomi. The same God who heard Hannah's prayers. The same God who spoke to Samuel. Sees you. Your story isn't over. Keep gathering oil. Keep trusting. Keep praying. Keep abiding in Christ. One day you'll look back and see what Ruth, Naomi, Hannah, and Samuel eventually discovered: He was there the whole time. ❤️ Connect with Come, Follow Me Moms If this episode blessed you, would you take a minute to follow the podcast, leave a review, and share it with another mama who could use a little encouragement this week? Remember, you don't have to be perfect to draw closer to Christ. Just keep showing up. See you next week, mamas!

    22. Come, Follow Me Moms; May 25-31st, Judges 2-4, 6-8, 13-16; The Pride Cycle, The God who stays, Samson, Deborah, Gideon, Come Follow Me Scripture Study

    COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS Episode 22 | May 25–31 Judges 2–4; 6–8; 13–16 “The Pride Cycle & The God Who Stays” Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. If you are new here, welcome. We are so happy you are here. This is a scripture study podcast where we go through the weekly Come, Follow Me lesson and apply it to real motherhood. Because yes… every story in the scriptures still applies today. And honestly, every week I say it’s my favorite because every week it ends up being exactly what I needed to hear. I pray this episode blesses your life and that the Spirit is with you as you listen throughout your day. This week we are diving into the book of Judges… and mamas, this book is messy. But honestly? So is motherhood sometimes. Have you ever had a spiritual high moment? You’re in the temple. You’re journaling. You feel God so clearly. You know exactly what He wants you to do… And then two days later… you doubt everything? THAT is Judges. This book is one giant cycle of: forgetting, struggling, crying out to God, being rescued… and then forgetting again. And honestly, sometimes motherhood feels exactly like that. The book of Judges and Ruth cover the time between the death of Joshua and the birth of Samuel. We see rebellion, oppression, deliverance, miracles, idolatry, lawlessness, and imperfect people trying to follow God. It’s a lot… but there is so much hope inside these chapters. In Judges 2 we learn about the pride cycle, or repentance cycle: Rebel → Bondage → Cry for Deliverance → Repentance → Deliverance → Rest → Rebel again. Over and over again. And before we judge Israel too quickly… aren’t we sometimes the same? Judges 2:19 says they would not stop their stubborn ways. I think sometimes we read stories like this and wonder, “How could they keep forgetting God?” But then we do the same thing. We have spiritual experiences. We feel inspired. We know what God is asking us to do… and then fear, doubt, overthinking, and the world start creeping in. I know I’ve done this. I’ll be journaling with Jesus, feeling the Spirit so strongly, and think, “Okay Lord, let’s do this.” And then suddenly my brain starts questioning everything. Was that really inspiration? Was that just me? Am I capable of doing that? And before I know it, I start backpedaling instead of following through. Mamas… stop doubting yourself. Sometimes our brains try to keep us safe. But faith was never meant to stay safe. Don’t play the safe game. Play the God game. He will help you. He will direct your path. He will make a way where there seems to be no way. I actually caught myself the other day about to ask ChatGPT something that I should have taken to God. And while technology is wonderful and helpful, I paused and thought, “Why am I asking Chat what I should be asking God?” God is our Father. He is the true source. Let Jesus prevail in your life. Let the Spirit prevail in your life. In Chapter 3 we meet some scripture heroes like Othniel and Ehud. Ehud was left-handed and unexpected. The thing that made him different became something God used. And I love that reminder for us as moms. God uses unlikely people all throughout scripture. Quiet moms. Loud moms. Homeschool moms. Working moms. Anxious moms. Overwhelmed moms. Moms who feel unseen or unsure. The thing that makes you feel different may actually be the thing God uses most powerfully. Then we meet one of my favorite women in scripture: Deborah. Deborah was a prophetess and judge of Israel. She was wise, courageous, faithful, and full of light. She sat beneath a palm tree, and people came to her for wisdom and guidance. Israel was being oppressed by a wicked king and his commander Sisera, and God called Deborah to help deliver His people. She called Barak to gather an army, but Barak was afraid and said he would only go if Deborah went with him. Deborah agreed and reminded him that the Lord had already gone before them. One of the most powerful verses says: “Is not the Lord gone out before thee?” — Judges 4:14 Mamas… has the Lord not gone before you before? Has He not helped you before? Has He not carried your family before? Has He not answered prayers before? Then why do we panic as if He won’t do it again? Deborah’s story also includes Jael, a woman of gentle courage who fulfilled Deborah’s prophecy and defeated Sisera. God used ordinary women in powerful ways. One thing I absolutely loved in this week’s study was the invitation to “Talk of Christ.” I love Elder Neil L. Andersen’s talk, We Talk of Christ. I highlighted almost the entire thing. I used to feel awkward talking openly about Jesus. Then I met a sweet grandma who just loved Jesus so deeply. She wasn’t part of our faith tradition, but she constantly praised Him. “Praise Jesus.” “Glory to God.” “Amen.” She wasn’t afraid to talk about Him, and it changed me. At first it felt uncomfortable, but over time talking about Jesus became natural. Mamas… TALK OF CHRIST. Be different. Be bold. Be a Jesus lover. The world is loud about everything else. Why are we sometimes so quiet about Jesus? Then we get to Gideon in Judges 6–8. And honestly… I think so many moms will relate to Gideon. When we first meet Gideon, he is hiding because he is afraid. But the angel calls him: “Thou mighty man of valour.” Gideon immediately starts doubting himself. He says he is poor, weak, and the least important in his family. He keeps asking for reassurance because he doesn’t feel qualified. But God keeps saying: “Surely I will be with thee.” THAT is the message. Not “You can do it alone.” But “God will help you.” God tells Gideon to gather an army, but then reduces the army down to only 300 men so Israel will know the victory came from God and not from their own strength. Gideon’s men go into battle carrying trumpets, lamps, and pitchers. They blow the trumpets, break the pitchers, and shout: “The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon!” And God delivers them. Mamas, weakness does not disqualify you. You do not need to feel ready for God to use you. Sometimes we are waiting for clarity when God is simply asking us to stand in our place. Live your life as if you already won… not because you are strong enough, but because God already knows the outcome. And finally… Samson. Oh Samson. Samson was born under a special covenant and blessed with incredible strength. His long hair symbolized that covenant with God. Samson did mighty things through God’s power, but he continually allowed himself to become distracted by pride, temptation, compromise, and worldly desires. Eventually Delilah betrayed him, his hair was cut, and he lost his strength. But the beautiful part of Samson’s story is that even after failure, God still heard him when he turned back. Samson’s story is really about potential. He was called to do great things, but kept getting distracted from God’s purpose. And honestly… isn’t that such a modern struggle too? So instead of ending this week saying: “Wow… Israel was stubborn.” Maybe we ask: Lord, is it I? Am I forgetting You? Am I doubting You? Am I compromising? Am I trusting fear more than faith? Mamas… the book of Judges is messy. The people are messy. The leaders are messy. And honestly? So are we sometimes. But the good news of the gospel is this: God does not stop pursuing His people. Again and again, He rescues. He restores. He calls. He strengthens. He stays. So this week: Stop playing the safe game. Play the God game. Talk of Christ. Trust His prompting. Stand in your place. And remember: “Has not the Lord gone before thee?”

    21. Come, Follow Me Joshua 1-8, 23, 24; May 18 - 24; Be Strong and of Good Courage; Come Follow Me scripture Study; Bible Study; LDS moms

    COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS Joshua 1–8; 23–24 “Be Strong and of a Good Courage” Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. This week we are in the book of Joshua… and WOW. This week is powerful. We have Moses passing away, Joshua stepping into leadership, the Jordan River parting, Rahab and the scarlet cord, the walls of Jericho falling, memorial stones, miracles, courage, obedience, redemption, and one of the most famous scriptures in all of scripture: “Choose you this day whom ye will serve.” — Joshua 24:15 And honestly… this week feels SO much like motherhood. Because Joshua is all about moving forward when you feel unsure. Trusting God before you see the miracle. Walking by faith. And believing God will make a way even when there doesn’t seem to BE a way. And mamas… I know so many of you are standing in front of your own Jordan River right now. You might be exhausted. Overwhelmed. Scared. Waiting. Trying to trust God in the messy middle. And this week’s lesson is such a reminder: God goes before His people. Joshua steps into leadership after the death of Moses. Can you imagine how overwhelming that must have felt? Moses was THE prophet who led Israel out of Egypt, parted the Red Sea, and spoke with God face to face. And now Joshua is supposed to lead. Big shoes. Heavy responsibility. I love that the Lord immediately tells Joshua over and over: “Be strong and of a good courage.” — Joshua 1:6, 7, 9 God knew exactly what Joshua needed to hear. And honestly… don’t we all? Be strong. Be courageous. Keep going. What makes this even more powerful is that Joshua was one of the LAST living adults who remembered the Red Sea. Almost everyone else from that generation had died in the wilderness except Joshua and Caleb because they trusted God when the other spies doubted. Joshua remembered the plagues, the manna, Mount Sinai, and the miracles of God. And now he’s leading an entirely new generation. Mamas… some of you are doing that too. You are trying to lead your family toward Christ in a world that feels very different than the one you grew up in. And maybe sometimes you feel inadequate or unsure. But the Lord does not call perfect people. He strengthens willing people. One of the biggest themes in Joshua is this: God goes before His people. Before they crossed the Jordan… God already had a plan. Before Jericho fell… God already knew how the walls would come down. Before Rahab hung the scarlet cord… God already knew her story. And before YOU got where you are right now… God already knew. Joshua 1:9 says: “For the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” I LOVE that. Because motherhood can feel lonely sometimes. Heavy sometimes. Scary sometimes. But we are not doing this alone. Honestly, when people ask me about being pregnant with twins, they ask: “Are you scared?” “Are you nervous?” And honestly? I just keep thinking: The same God who parted the Red Sea… The same God who stopped the Jordan River… The same God who brought down Jericho… is the same God helping me right now. And He’s helping YOU too. One of the most incredible miracles in this week’s lesson is the parting of the Jordan River. The Israelites arrive during flood season. This wasn’t some tiny stream. This was a rushing river overflowing its banks. And God tells the priests carrying the ark to STEP INTO the water first. And this part matters SO much: The river did not part before they stepped in. It parted AFTER. That will preach, mamas. Sometimes God asks us to move forward BEFORE we see the miracle. We want certainty first. Answers first. Proof first. Comfort first. But faith often looks like getting your feet wet first. Joshua 3:5 says: “Sanctify yourselves: for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.” I LOVE that scripture. Expect wonders. Expect God to move. Expect miracles. One of my favorite thoughts from studying this week was: “Silence precedes the miracle.” Sometimes God is working even when everything feels still. After they crossed the Jordan, God told them to gather 12 stones as a memorial so that one day when their children asked, “What mean ye by these stones?” they could tell the story of what God had done. Mamas… we NEED memorial stones. Not necessarily physical stones… but reminders. Write down miracles. Tell your kids your testimony. Share your stories. Remember the hard seasons God carried you through. As I studied, I started thinking about my own memorial stones: losing loved ones, hard years, healing, friendships, becoming a life coach, and now these twins. And looking back… God has never failed me. Joshua 23 says: “Not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the Lord your God spake.” Not one thing. Now let’s talk about Rahab because WOW. Rahab lived in Jericho and the scriptures call her a harlot. She was not who people expected God to use. But she believed. She hid the spies, protected them, and chose God in the middle of a wicked city. Then comes the scarlet cord. The spies tell Rahab to hang a scarlet thread in her window and when Jericho falls, her household will be saved. The symbolism of Jesus Christ here is BEAUTIFUL. That scarlet cord points to Christ. To salvation. To rescue. To grace. And one of my favorite parts is that Joshua specifically tells them: GO GET RAHAB. He does not reject her. He rescues her. And mamas… that is Jesus. Jesus goes after people. Especially the broken ones. The ashamed ones. The overlooked ones. And what’s incredible is Rahab becomes part of Jesus Christ’s lineage. A woman with a messy past becomes one of Jesus’s grandmothers. God didn’t erase her story. He redeemed it. Maybe someone listening today needs to hear this: Your past does not disqualify you from God’s purposes. Then we come to Jericho. God tells them to walk around the city once a day for six days quietly, and on the seventh day to walk around it seven times and shout. And honestly… that sounds SO strange. But they obey anyway. And for six days… nothing happens. Can we talk about how much motherhood feels like that sometimes? You pray. Read scriptures. Pack lunches. Repent. Try again. Keep loving. Keep serving. Keep showing up. And sometimes it feels like nothing is changing. But then comes Day 7. The miracle comes AFTER consistent obedience. Day after day. Choice after choice. Faith after faith. I love this thought: Healthy choices day after day create change. Faithful choices day after day create spiritual strength. Do not stop walking around your Jericho. Joshua ends his life with one final message to the people: “Choose you this day whom ye will serve… but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” — Joshua 24:15 Joshua knew following God is a daily choice. Not a one-time choice. A daily one. And mamas… every single day you are witnessing Christ to your children. When you pray. When you repent. When you try again. When you choose faith. When you choose kindness. When you choose Jesus in ordinary moments. You are building a house centered on Christ. This week I hope you remember: God goes before you. The river can part. The walls can fall. Miracles still happen. And Jesus still rescues people. Be strong. Be courageous. Keep walking. Keep trusting. Keep choosing Him. And maybe today… all you need to do is take one faithful step into the water. Because the God of Joshua is still the God of today. And He has not forgotten you.   This Weeks Links Hear Him Talk  https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2020/04/45nelson.p24?lang=eng#p24   Choose you this Day Talk  https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2018/10/choose-you-this-day?lang=eng   Jesus is Calling Devotional Book  https://amzn.to/4tGTj6M

    20. COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS, May 11-17, Deuteronomy 6-8; 15; 18; 29-30; 34, Remember, Moses last thoughts.mp3

    COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS Episode 20 May 11–17 Deuteronomy 6–8; 15; 18; 29–30; 34 “Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord” Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. 💗 This week we are at the END of Moses’s life. Moses stands on a mountain looking out at the promised land , a land he spent 40 years helping the children of Israel get to… but a land he himself would not enter. And instead of bitterness or frustration, Moses gives one final message to the people: Remember. Don’t forget God. Choose life. Love God with your whole heart. Be one of the few. And honestly mamas… this message feels SO relevant for us today. Because have you ever felt spiritually disconnected? Not because you stopped believing… but because life got loud? Laundry. Practices. Groceries. Phones. Schedules. Pregnancy. Exhaustion. Motherhood. And slowly, without even realizing it… your heart drifts a little. This week in Deuteronomy, Moses gives his farewell message to a generation that mostly DIDN’T personally see all the miracles. They didn’t cross the Red Sea. They didn’t escape Egypt. They didn’t see manna fall from heaven or water come from a rock. And that feels a lot like our generation today. We didn’t cross the Red Sea either… but we CAN experience Jesus Christ. We can remember Him. We can recognize His hand in our lives. Moses’s final message was all about the HEART. “Love the Lord thy God with all thine heart.” Deuteronomy 6:5 This is not surface-level faith. This is heart-level faith. Not performance Christianity. Not checkbox Christianity. Connection. Cassie shares her experience of once being a “checkbox mom” spiritually checking off scripture study, temple attendance, tithing, and Family Home Evening without truly building a relationship with God. Over time, she realized God wasn’t asking for perfection. He was asking for her heart. She also shares a tender moment with her 13-year-old son who reminded her they hadn’t been to the temple in awhile. Kids notice what fills our homes. They notice what matters to us. So the question becomes: What is actually in my heart right now? Fear? Comparison? Stress? Overwhelm? Control? Or: Trust? Peace? Faith? Jesus? Moses’s Message: Remember One of the strongest themes this week is remembrance. “He parted the sea. Manna fell from heaven. Water came from a rock. And they STILL forgot.” How often do we forget our own Red Sea moments? The answered prayers. The miracles we already survived. The moments God carried us. The healing He already gave us. The random text from a friend at the exact right moment. The song that came on when we needed it most. Sometimes we panic like God has never been faithful before. Moses pleaded with the people to remember because he knew he would not be going with them into the promised land. And today, prophets continue to plead with us to hold onto our faith, our testimonies, and the moments we have felt God in our lives. A Sacred Mother’s Day Experience Cassie shares a sacred experience from this past week after a mother in her ward unexpectedly passed away in a car accident. On Mother’s Day, she felt prompted to gather women from the ward and sing to the grieving family, despite fears of bothering them. Through prayer and prompting, they followed through. After singing, the family shared that one of the songs sung was the mother’s favorite song in heaven. It became a gentle reminder to always follow spiritual promptings and to remember the sacred moments God gives us. When miracles happen in your life… remember them. Write them down. Hold them close. “You Have Been in This Mountain Long Enough.” Deuteronomy 1–2 This scripture is SUCH a powerful invitation for moms. Some of us have been stuck in: shame comparison fear old identities pain discouragement And maybe God is gently saying: “You have been here long enough. It is time to move forward.” Teaching Children About Jesus in Everyday Moments Deuteronomy 6 teaches that we teach our children: when we sit, when we walk, when we lie down, and when we rise up. This is NOT about creating a perfect 30-minute scripture study every day. This IS: talking about Jesus in the car praying during chaos reading one verse at bedtime pointing out God in everyday life And mamas… that counts. “Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord” The Israelites were about to enter a season of blessings, comfort, and abundance… and strangely enough, THAT was when they were most at risk of forgetting God. Sometimes we think we need God most when life is hard. But often we drift furthest when life simply becomes busy and comfortable. You don’t forget God overnight. You forget Him slowly: by rushing through prayer relying only on yourself filling your life with noise putting Him last And eventually you feel disconnected… not because God left, but because you stopped remembering. Helping Others With a Willing Heart Deuteronomy 15 teaches us to “open thine hand wide.” Not just help when it’s convenient. Not just serve halfway. But love generously. As moms, this can look like: serving your children when tired checking in on a struggling friend bringing dinner sending the text offering the prayer God has been so generous with us. Be One of the Few One of the strongest impressions from this week: “The ones who stay will be few.” Holy means set apart. Mamas, you do not have to follow the crowd to be a good mom. You do not have to parent like the world. You do not have to build your family like the world. You can be one of the few who stays close to Jesus. Moses Testifies of Christ In Deuteronomy 18, Moses prophesies of Jesus Christ. Everything Moses did pointed people to the Savior. And everything in our motherhood can point our children to Christ too — not because we are perfect, but because we keep turning back to Him. “Choose Life.” Deuteronomy 30:19 Every day we are choosing: faith or fear presence or distraction peace or panic God or the world Not perfectly. But intentionally. Conference Talk Connections M. Russell Ballard — “Lovest Thou Me More Than These?” President Ballard asks us to consider: “What do we truly love most?” Phones? Social media? Busyness? Approval? Achievement? “When we love the Lord with all our heart, He becomes the center of our lives.” President Ballard also quoted President Nelson’s powerful invitation: “Are you willing to let God prevail in your life?” Dale G. Renlund — “Consider the Goodness and Greatness of God” Remembering God changes fear into trust. When we intentionally remember God’s goodness, we stop living in panic and start living in trust. The Heart Check The Come, Follow Me manual asks this powerful question: “What diagnosis would you give your heart?” What has your heart been full of lately? Fear? Comparison? Distraction? Bitterness? Exhaustion? Or: peace trust gratitude Jesus This Week’s Invitation This week, ask yourself: Where have I been forgetting God? And what is ONE small way I can remember Him daily? Maybe it’s: a 2-minute prayer one verse a day worship music in the car talking about Jesus with your kids Simple. Doable. Real life. Remember: who God is what He has done what He has brought you through who YOU are and whose you are Mama… you do not need perfect routines, perfect prayers, or perfect kids to come closer to God. You just need a heart that keeps turning back to Him. Thank you so much for listening to this week’s Come, Follow Me Moms episode. If someone came to mind while listening today, say a quick prayer for them. Even a simple: “Heavenly Father, please be mindful of them.” Every prayer matters. See you next week on Come, Follow Me Moms.

    🎙 COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS May 4–10 | Numbers 11–14; 20–24; 27 Why Do We Want to Go Back to Egypt? Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. Your weekly Come, Follow Me scripture study where we pull out the meat and potatoes and apply it to real mom life. This week… we are in Numbers. And I’m just going to say it… This one felt personal. Because the Israelites… They saw miracles. They were led by God. They had literal food falling from heaven. And still… They complained. They doubted. They wanted to go back. And I wrote in my scriptures: Why do the people want to return to Egypt? And then I paused… And thought… Why do I sometimes want to? Why do I want to go back to things that are familiar… even if they weren’t good? Why do I go back to old patterns, old thoughts, old ways… just because they’re comfortable? This week is not about a journey across land. It’s about a journey of becoming. And honestly… That is motherhood.   President Nelsons Talk: https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2018/04/revelation-for-the-church-revelation-for-our-lives?lang=eng   Manna Is Falling… and We’re Complaining Numbers 11 The people are getting food raining down from heaven… And they are complaining. How often do we do this? We pray for something… God gives it to us… And then we complain about it. We pray for the job… we get it… and then we don’t like it. We pray for our kids… and then feel overwhelmed by them. Manna didn’t stop being a miracle… They just stopped seeing it that way. As Dieter F. Uchtdorf taught, gratitude is a way of life. “I Can’t Do This… It’s Too Heavy” Numbers 11:14 Moses says: “I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me.” That is motherhood. This is too much. I can’t handle this. I feel alone. But God didn’t remove the responsibility. He gave Moses help. He sent the 70 elders. You were never meant to do motherhood alone. God sends support and He sends His Spirit. Personal Revelation Is Everything This part is everything for moms. From Russell M. Nelson: “I plead with you to increase your spiritual capacity to receive revelation… choose to do the spiritual work required to enjoy the gift of the Holy Ghost and hear the voice of the Spirit more frequently and more clearly.” Motherhood clarity does not come from social media, comparison, or pressure. It comes from revelation. Pray. Listen. Write down what comes. Act on it. You don’t need a louder world. You need clearer revelation. “Let’s Go Back to Egypt” Numbers 13–14 The Israelites are right next to the promised land… And they say, let’s go back. Egypt represents what is familiar. Even if it wasn’t better… it felt easier. Sometimes we want: Our old life Our old routine Our old body Our old identity But God didn’t call you backward. He called you forward. Egypt was familiar… But it wasn’t promised. 10 Spies vs 2 Spies Twelve spies go into the promised land. They all see the same thing. A beautiful land. God’s promises. And also… challenges. Ten spies say: We can’t do this. We’re not enough. Two spies, Joshua and Caleb, say: Yes it’s hard… but God is with us. We can do this. Same situation. Different perspective. This is motherhood. You can focus on the hard… Or you can see the growth, the purpose, and God’s hand in it. The difference wasn’t the land. It was how they saw it. Fear says: we’re not enough. Faith says: God is enough. The Brass Serpent — It Feels Too Simple Numbers 21 The people are bitten by serpents. They are suffering. They are dying. And God gives them a solution: Look… and be healed. That’s it. Look at the brass serpent and live. But some people didn’t look. Not because it didn’t work… But because it felt too simple. This is about Jesus Christ. Healing is available. Peace is available. Help is available. But sometimes we don’t look. We’re overwhelmed. We’re anxious. We’re struggling. And the invitation is simple: Turn to Christ. Pray. Remember Him. And we think… That’s not enough. But what if the answer you’re looking for… Is simple… And you’ve been overlooking it? They didn’t die because there wasn’t a cure. They died because they wouldn’t look. Meekness Is Strength Numbers 12:3 Moses was described as very meek. Meekness is not weakness. It is strength, restraint, and submission to God. Meek moms are not passive. They are Spirit-led. Grounded. Surrendered to God. Meekness is choosing God’s way… even when your emotions are loud.   Elder Bednar Talk  https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2018/04/meek-and-lowly-of-heart?lang=eng   This Week’s Invitation Mamas… Where are you right now? Are you complaining about manna? Feeling overwhelmed like Moses? Wanting to go back to Egypt? Or avoiding the simple answer because it feels too easy? This week: Pray and ask Listen Write it down Act on it And when life feels heavy… Look to Christ.   Elder Oaks Talk  https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2010/10/two-lines-of-communication?lang=eng   Final Thought You are not failing in the wilderness. God is forming you in it.

    18. COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS April 27- May 3, Exodus 35-40, Leviticus 1, 4, 16, 19, The tabernacle, The Temple, Bible Study, Come, Follow Me Study

    . COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS April 27 – May 3 Exodus 35–40 | Leviticus 1, 4, 16, 19 The Tabernacle, The Temple, Come, Follow Me Study “Holiness Is Built… One Small Step at a Time” Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. This week we are in Exodus and Leviticus, and I’ll be honest… I started out thinking, “wow, this is kind of boring,” and it quickly turned into, “wait… this is actually so powerful.” This is one of those weeks where you might open your scriptures and think, “What is happening… and how does this apply to my life?” There are sacrifices, detailed laws, measurements, and instructions. And if you’re a busy mom, it’s easy to check out. But if you lean in just a little, this week becomes one of the most powerful lessons on how we come closer to God and how we actually become holy. Not in a perfection way, but in a real life, middle-of-motherhood kind of way. God brings His people out of Egypt, but getting them out wasn’t the end goal. He wanted to get Egypt out of them. He wanted to change their hearts. He wanted relationship. He wanted holiness. Leviticus 19:2 says, “Ye shall be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy.” President Henry B. Eyring taught, “The plan of happiness is for everyone. Wickedness never was happiness” (General Conference, October 2019). When God gives commandments, it’s not to restrict us. It’s to lead us to happiness. To teach this, God gives His people the tabernacle. Everything about it is symbolic. Everything points to Jesus. Everything shows us how to come back to God. The tabernacle teaches progression. You don’t just walk into God’s presence. You move step by step. And this is key for us as moms. Holiness is built. It is not instant. The first step is sacrifice. The people bring offerings, not just because they’re told to, but with willing hearts. Exodus 36:5 says the people brought “much more than enough.” These are the same people who just made the golden calf, and now their hearts are changed. That is repentance. Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf taught, “God cares a lot more about who we are and who we are becoming than about who we once were” (“You Matter to Him,” General Conference, October 2011). So what are you offering God right now? Not perfectly, but willingly. Your time, your patience, your effort, your desire to try again. That counts. The next step is washing. This represents being made clean. Psalm 51:2 says, “Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.” Ezekiel 36:25 says, “Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean.” This is Jesus. We cannot become holy without being made clean first. One of the most powerful insights this week is the difference between saving grace and exalting grace. Saving grace rescues us. Exalting grace changes us. Exodus shows us being saved. Leviticus shows us becoming something new. Emily Belle Freeman taught, “Grace is not just the power that saves you… it is the power that changes you” (BYU Women’s Conference, 2015). Then we move forward into clothing and anointing. This represents identity. Isaiah 61:10 says, “He hath clothed me with the garments of salvation.” We are becoming someone new. One of my favorite lines from this week is this: living differently doesn’t mean we lower our standards or values. It means we rise. Eventually, the progression leads to the presence of God, the Holy of Holies. We don’t live there perfectly, but we are invited to move closer every day. Leviticus can feel intense with all the sacrifices and laws, but these rituals were meant to teach principles like repentance, holiness, and the Savior’s Atonement. Everything points to Jesus. And this is so real for us. Sin can creep in. It’s a slippery slope. It’s also easy to forget the Lord if we don’t take time. President Russell M. Nelson taught, “The joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives” (“Joy and Spiritual Survival,” General Conference, October 2016). If we are not intentionally remembering Him, we will naturally drift. So we choose consistent remembrance of God. The Spirit brings a feeling of happiness and assurance that we are becoming more holy. That’s how we know. Not perfection, but peace. John 14:27 says, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you.” Leviticus teaches us the manner of access to God and the holiness that comes as a result of that access. Holiness is the result of being close to God, not the requirement before. Elder David A. Bednar taught, “We are not expected to be perfect… but we are expected to become better” (General Conference, April 2012). God holds us to a higher standard, not to shame us, but to refine us. The process is simple and powerful. Repent often. Be humble. Have meekness and patience. Doctrine and Covenants 122:7 reminds us, “All these things shall be for thy experience, and shall be for thy good.” Your hard days, your stretching days, your messy motherhood moments are part of your becoming. Like Job, we are invited to stand strong. “Gird up now thy loins like a man” (Job 38:3). Not perfectly, but faithfully. So here is your invitation this week. What do you feel impressed to do? Not everything. Just one thing. One prayer. One scripture. One moment of patience. One act of turning to Him. That is how holiness is built. One step at a time. Mamas, you are not behind. You are not failing. You are in the process. God is not asking for perfection. He is asking for your willing heart.
