Day 9: Motherhood as a Profession
“She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.” Proverbs 31:27-29 NIV

Co-founder at Help Club for Moms
My name is Deb Weakly and I helped create the Help Club for Moms with one goal in mind: to create a community in which moms help moms to know the love of Christ. My own childhood was difficult and filled with sadness. I didn’t grow up in a Christian home, so when I became a Christian (and soon after, a mom), I had no idea what I was doing; I didn’t know what it meant to raise Christ-centered kids, but I so desperately wanted to learn.
I remember going into my daughter's room night after night and kneeling beside her bed and crying my heart out to God because I didn’t know how to be a Christian mom; I felt like I had no idea what I was doing. You know what? God is so faithful! He answered me and simply said, “Spend time with me, Deb.” And so I did. I began arising 15-30 minutes earlier each day so I could read my Bible and pray, and plan out my day with my family.
If there was one thing I would love to share with you is that God is personal and loves you as you are. You don’t have to be perfect to be loved by our amazing God! Come as you are! His loving presence can be practically known and experienced. He is not a God who is far away, He is near and easily found. He longs for you to come to Him!
Randy and I have been married for 33 years and we have two grown children, Christie, and Jack, and one answer to prayer son-in-law named Alex. And now I get to be a Gigi to my sweet little grandbabies, Aspen and Skylar, and Piper. Yay!

I just have to say that listening to the podcast on Mothering as a profession was so life giving to me. I had never thought about it in that way as studying for my profession as a mom. All the resources you gave were so welcomed and I’ve just began to read the book, More Hours in a Day by Emilie Barnes and I already love it. I’m needing some organization tips and haven’t even gotten to that part of the book but her story is inspiring. Deb, what you give at Help Club for moms is making a difference in my life. I’m finding myself closer to Jesus and trying to rely on him more in each moment. Thank you!!
Hi sweet Samantha!! I am soooo glad you are here!! God is so good!! Thank you for your kind words!!
Much love to you!!
