Single Mom Superabundantly Blessed By Gospel

I give God praise and thank Him so much for leading me to your ministry! Because of your teachings, I can trust and believe God for His favor and goodness even when I’m imperfect. This has changed my life.

I am a single mother and I’ve always wanted to homeschool my kids. However, I’ve never known a single mother who homeschools her children. In fact, I’ve never seen or known a single mother who is financially stable and able to pursue her dreams for her family. The ones I know are always stressed, worried and lacking in finances.

I told the Lord that I don’t want to be a single mom working a few jobs just to make ends meet and having no time for the kids. I believed that He can still make our lives glorious and a testimony of His abundant provision. So I began to confess that because of Jesus, we have beauty for ashes, oil of joy for mourning and that the Lord is our provider. And the Lord has been faithful to provide for us!

By His grace, I rose as a top professional in my field of learning and development. I received numerous awards and was even chosen as a speaker at an industry conference. My family was blessed with plenty and we were even able to move to a better place to live. I even asked the Lord to make my job hours flexible so that I could pick up my kids after school, and He did!

After working at the management job for over two years, I desired to homeschool my children as I was seeing so many changes in my kids from attending the public school. I believed that I was being led by the Holy Spirit on that desire as He showed me so many benefits to homeschool my kids!

Not knowing how a single mother, with no family in the entire state where I live, could ever manage homeschooling and working full-time, I cast all my cares to God. I remember Pastor Prince saying that the best place to be is one where you are totally dependent upon God for everything!

I just rested, meditated on His Word and let Him lead me. As a result of His favor, I was able to withdraw my kids from the public school and enroll them in a state-funded homeschool program, with full curriculum, books and teacher availability—all for free! Amazing!

And if that was not enough, God blessed me with the finances to pay for a nanny to come in to supervise and teach my kids while I was away working. The arrangement seems great, but I kept hearing from the Lord that I needed to rest in Him and keep on receiving.

So I continued to be thankful and grateful for the opportunity to have my kids homeschooled, but also asked the Lord to let me stay home full-time to homeschool them. I believe that as their mother, I am anointed to teach and parent them, and wanted to be home to do so. And wouldn’t you know it? The Lord answered my prayer!

I was led to resign from my position where I was managing a team of learning and development professionals. Not even knowing my next step, I just trusted the Lord. I didn’t want to depend on my paycheck from work or let anything else dictate how I raised my family. I knew that if the Lord had put the desire in my heart, then He would supply everything I needed. And indeed, He blessed me with a new role, making considerably more than even my management position and I actually work from home every day! I only travel into the office four days a month and it’s so restful and easy compared to my previous management job.

Only Jesus can give me a job where I work from home and make more money, have more peace and can homeschool my children. This is all by His grace! He keeps on blessing and blessing and I just continue to receive and receive some more in every area of my life! And because of His blessings, I’ve also been able to bless my family and others. With the bonus from my old job, I was able to purchase my dad a new car for his birthday.

The gospel is SO good—no wonder the enemy wants to blind our eyes. But thank God, I see more and more of Jesus each day and He has changed my life. I know His ear is attentive to all my prayers because He has made me righteous forever. I’m blessed superabundantly, all by His grace and by His grace alone!
