Boymoms Overcoming Obstacles - Mom Empowerment & Faith

Hey BoyMoms, Thank you so much for tuning in today on my BoyMom’s Overcoming obstacles podcast. First I would like to share some background on why I started this podcast, but first let me introduce myself my name is Iranda. My name is spelled like Miranda without the M. I was born and raised here in South Texas. I was blessed with three boys, they are now young men. My husband and I have been married for over 30 years. So we went through the good, the bad and the ugly raising our boys as I would like to describe it. I feel led to encourage other boymoms from a mother’s perspective and just to give words of encouragement. You see I get it and believe me, I’ve been through some stuff, but I’m not here to dwell on the negative things on what I went through, but just to encourage you. if you are in a season of feeling confused, lost or feel overwhelmed at this moment, I want to share with you, ”this too shall pass”. That’s one of my favorite quotes to remind me that the stresses and anxieties of life doesn’t always have to win. There will be days when you feel that things are getting better, then unexpectedly you get a setback. but my faith in God is what I have learned to lean on and He has really shown me and got me through some difficult times. So I just want to help other moms to stay encouraged and rely on God’s strength. That is one of the reasons why I started this podcast and another reason is to just remind you to always take care of yourself moms. By nature, we moms tend to always want to fix things for our children, but the word says, otherwise, right? So this is just a reminder that we can only do so much, but when God is there, oh boy, he can definitely change things in a second, maybe overnight or in a week or takes months, depending on when the Lord’s timing. Please stay encouraged and stay in good fellowship. In Psalms 31:24 the word tells us, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord, so please, yes, put that hope in God because he will get you through it. Another thing is give yourself grace. That is one of the best advice that I can actually give someone, that was also given to me many times, just don’t be too hard on yourself. I’m excited to also share how the Lord has helped me with my boymom journey. I am thankful for my family, we have been surrounded with supportive family members, friends and even coworkers that have given me encouragement words. I know some of my friends and my family members can share a lot of stories that they have seen me go through some trials that I didn’t think that I was going to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Again I just want to just share with God all things are possible. God is so good. He has shown me a lot of different things that I thought I was not going to see come to pass. Here’s a reminder of hope and encouragement to boymoms. So I just thank you again for just listening to my podcast and I hope that you can take something out of this. I’m not licensed or certified counselor or psychiatrist, but I can tell you I have 30 years of experience raising boys. I am really surrounded by men. My three sons, 3 bonus grandsons and our first biological grandson coming soon. I am so excited just to help other boy moms, just to encourage them and to remind them that this too shall pass. So welcome to being a part of the B.O.O community:boy mom’s overcoming journey with me. God bless you and I hope you have a good day no matter what❤️ Contact: aglimpseofbliss@gmail.com
