I think we're long-lost sisters! LOL! I also pray while I'm doing random stuff around the house - dishes, laundry, changing diapers. I know the last one sounds silly, but I look at my baby and am so thankful for him that I have to praise God for the gift of making me a mom and entrusting his little soul to me (even if that soul won't stop spinning around long enough for me to get a clean diaper on him).
I love all your suggestions! One way I try to keep my day prayerful is that I make a to do list for the day in the morning and then an intention for that act. For example: I have to clean out a closet, I do it for a sick friend. I have to do laundry, I do it in thanksgiving for my family. I'm new at it, but it does lift my mind to God more often, which is the goal;)
Heather I’m enjoying your ministry here on your channel so much! I love all your content! I find you so relatable. You’re so inspiring and sweet. I’m learning so much from you. I have two children 6 and 8 years old with my husband of 24 years, and we are Catholic. I didn’t realize how asleep we were…. I’m so inspired by your content and others alike while simultaneously just diving deeper into our faith. My faith has grown so much and it’s a passion and I feel very blessed to be Catholic. I’m seeing the fruits of having a Closer relationship with God and seeing it in my family as well. We’ve been praying every night as a family. My kids and I every morning as well. I started the 54 day Rosary Novena with you and it’s so beautiful. I’ve been teaching my children since they were very little but as of late it’s been richer and deep. I’m so thankful for your channel. Our world is so far away from God and the last few years have been an eye opener, to say the least. Here you are 4 years ago and here I am, today. All in gods timing and with prayer patience and grace we’ve been connected by his love. Thank you for spreading goodness and your strong faith! Much love to you and your beautiful family. I look forward to watching more of your videos! I’ve seen so many of the recent ones while jumping around to last years and so on. Today I thought I’d go way back to your first video. ☺️ Amazing! The journeys we go through…. Such a blessing! Love your passion for our faith and your sweet, supportive and encouraging nature. ❤️ Praise be to God Always!
I traveled with the REACH team. 2000-2002. How fun. I love meeting other women with with this experience. I have 6 kids and am just getting back into waking up early to do liturgy of the hours or rosary. Something that has helped me with this new baby is to pray the rosary when I sit down to nurse the baby. I usually look on my phone. Lol. But I truly believe God gave us this time to rest. Moms don't get a lot of rest time but every few hours a mom has to sit and nourish her baby and looking at Pinterest isn't very restful. Lol. But I can nourish my soul while I nourish my baby. I pray about a decade or 2 at each nursing session. Great video.
My hubby n me say the rosary followed by reading the gospel for the day n of course St.Michaels prayer...then at 3 i do the Devine Mercy caplet then at around 8pm v have the family prayer that is rosary liteny followed by prayer for our deesesed family members n also for the orphan n holy souls in purgatory...then bed time i say 3 hail mary b4 retiring to bed....i also say the Memorei for the needy during cooking
Thank God for this video. I just needed some ideas and encouragement to reintroduce prayer back in my life after becoming a mom. My baby is 4 months old and I want to share my Faith by example but also would love ideas of what things to teach/share with baby now and as he grows
Heather can you maybe do a video on how you discipline your kids? Especially your toddlers going through the "terrible twos" when they don't talk yet so you can't reason much with them yet. Mine is over 3 now and the terrible twos seem to be still continuing lol Would be very neat to see how you handle your littles! Also, love when you do the longer videos and chatty sit downs. 🌼🙂
I really like the site Sacred Space by the Jesuits in Ireland. You basically pray through the mass readings of the day and meditate on them with a particular theme each week. It's lovely. I even bought the print version for the past two years. It was really life giving to have the physical book as a reminder to sit and spend time with God.
Heather you’re videos are honestly my favorite. I’m not a wife or a mommy yet, but watching your videos helps me to grow in my understanding of what it means to be a catholic mother aspiring for holiness and trying to lead a holy life for her husband and children. Thank you so much for doing your best to answer God’s call and lead as mom by example. It’s a very important vocation, to be a wife and mother. God bless you!
When I was teaching my grandaughter the rosary...I did the first part...then the last part...all the beads therefore became prayer for family and friends...she is fourteen now and when life is full of anxiety...we go back and pray that way...so she can see how greatful she is as well as myself...god bless
I love your channel. It’s so nice to see someone promoting the faith as a young mother. I read a book my mother in law gave me called The Apostolate of Holy Motherhood and it was soooo good. (It’s not a very long book. 🙂) It focuses on the importance of motherhood and how precious child are to The Lord. I highly recommend it. Children are very precious to Him.
Pray the Holy Rosary. Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Just found you a few days ago❤️ so glad I did-keep making theses videos. This catholic mom appreciates it. God bless. Oh also if it would be possible to list the items you mention in your videos in the description down bar please🙋
What I do for my prayer life is I'll have some time to myself whenever my three roommates are gone doing their own things or whenever I manage to get some quiet time to myself and I will talk to God and I will literally just plain talk to Him and I always tell Him about my struggles and I also talk to my family members who have passed away because I know that they are with me everyday and I also know that they can hear me, too !
Heather! I cannot believe what you are doing on here...it is so beautiful!!! You are so beautiful and God must be so pleased that you are shining His light through your love, joy, and encouraging words on here. I would love to email you, but do not have your email address. I found your channel on Tuesday and it has helped me each day since. I miss and love you! Rose from MN
ROSE!!!! How are you! I miss you so much! Thank you for your Christmas card and the sweet message about praying for my dad, you totally made my day! Yah I felt God call me to start RUclips and so here I am, Crazy! Please pray for me:) you can email me at acatholicmomslife@gmail.com can't to hear from you!
Hi I've just discovered you and love you , so I thought I'd go back to the beginning. .so you mentioned north Carolina, we are in NC so wondering where you are. .thanks and keep up God's work
Speaking about prayer.Our catholic priests always need fervent prayers.Satan's main target are catholic priests.The Virgin Mary is known to be the neck of the body of Christ in the church.It connects the head of the church.That's why satan and his minions want to behead to give a mockey of Christ and his church.Satan is full of pride and still cannot accept God would choose a jewish peasant girl lowly handmaid to crush his head.This is utter humiliation for him and the fallen angels. I found this reading explaining Mary's catholic mother's devotion; The role of a Catholic woman might be summed up in a word: MARY. Motherhood (physical and spiritual) Adoration (first duty to God) Resourceful (wise, creative) Yes to God (serving the divine will).

Ne gusta todo lo que pases por la iglesia
I was wondering the season of the year you were born?
I got talk to the acronym pray
P-praise
R-repent
A-ask
Y-(I forgot this one)
Yield
0:07 that is why Paul said 'it is better not to get married'.
Good heavens woman, 5:30?? What time do you go to bed? Sounds like God always intended you for motherhood, as you're up anyway.
