“The Spirit Is Our Teacher at Home”

📖 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit… He will teach you all things…”
 —John 14:26a (NKJV)

As mothers, we often feel the pressure to have all the answers—for our children’s questions, for their behavior, and for the challenges of each season.

But Jesus didn’t ask us to parent in our own wisdom. He promised us the Holy Spirit—the Helper who teaches, reminds, and guides us into truth. He is not just our children’s Teacher… He’s ours too.

There will be moments when we don’t know what to say. Moments when discipline feels overwhelming. Moments when we ourselves need correction. And it’s in those moments the Spirit gently leads us.

He reminds us of what Jesus said. He helps us teach with grace, listen with discernment, and parent with humility. He even teaches us how to apologize when we fall short.

We are not alone in this calling. The Spirit teaches mothers too.

Family Reflection:

  • Are we asking the Holy Spirit for help when we teach, correct, or comfort our children?
  • What is one way we’ve seen Him gently guide us this week?

Prayer:
 Holy Spirit, thank You for being our Helper. Teach me to guide my children in truth, and teach me through every season of motherhood. I need You. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth. ● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them. ● This space isn’t built on lofty theology or big platforms, it’s grounded in humble obedience, Kingdom living, and encouraging women and families to rediscover a faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. ● I don’t have a budget for an editor, publisher, or team behind the scenes. Everything you see here is created prayerfully and paid for out of pocket, using the tools I can afford to help present a clear, polished message of truth and hope. ● If you're blessed by what you read and would like to contribute toward this work, you’re welcome to support via: 📲 Cash App: $RootedRaised
