Do you wish you could hear God’s voice amidst the chaos?
Are you struggling to find stillness & quiet time in the busyness of momlife?
Do you want to read the bible but find it hard to stay consistent with your child’s unpredictable schedule?
Are thoughts and should’s keeping you from being present daily (& sometimes, moment by moment)?
I’ve been you, and sometimes, I still am you.
But mama, I am here to show you that it is possible to trust God & find time to feel peace in His presence, even as a busy mom.
Through this podcast, God’s presence will refresh, surround & transform us as we listen for His voice and follow Him, making use of those tiny cracks in our day.
My mission is to journey alongside you as we grow in our faith (leaving nothing out) by being present with God’s word, practicing prayer, pursuing fellowship & sharing powerful testimonies!
If you want to learn how to invite God’s peace into your heart, motherhood, and mind, I know this podcast will speak to you.
Welcome to a sisterhood of women who are fiercely in love with The Lord & who are committed to openly growing in their faith (with no judgment as we remember how to converse with other adult human beings)!!
Aloha Mama! My name is Paige Amber Bacani!!
I am blessed to be a lover of Jesus, wife, mama & mentor!!
However, I wasn’t always this way…For years I lived life as my own God. I came to know The Lord intimately at a very young age, but as the years passed and were filled with my parents divorce, blended families, lots of moving, abusive relationships, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, and a plethora of my own bad decisions; I became numb to God’s presence, deaf to His voice, and blind to His leading.
I also became tormented by spirits of perfectionism, control & criticism…if you can relate, you know how exhausting these vicious cycles are. I was being crushed by the weight of the world that I had created for myself. But I was still not ready to give up my false sense of freedom…
I wasn’t ready because I didn’t trust The Lord or His unconditional love for me. I thought I had to earn it & I knew that I hadn’t done that!! I didn’t know the worth that He had placed inside of me. I thought I had to prove myself worthy & I knew that I wasn’t! I didn’t trust that He had plans to prosper me and not to harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future. I thought I had to plan, provide for & protect myself!
Ultimately, I realized that my mistrust & misunderstanding of God’s character stemmed from the fact that I had no real relationship with Him. I rarely spent time with Him outside of church, except for the occasional emergency prayer!
By the grace of God, I finally ran out of strength. My capacity to cope with the war raging inside of me was spent. I couldn’t imagine one more day of living in the unknown & acting like I had it all figured out! So one morning, sitting in my car (that was out of gas), after yet another night of drinking to the point of blackout, I surrendered and told The Lord, “if you really want me, you can have me, I am done doing this life thing on my own” and I have never been the same.
The best way I can describe what The Lord has done in & through my life is that, I was one way & now I am completely different.
I want that for you..
& I understand where you are…
Becoming a mom only amplifies our trials. Yet, when we don’t know how to lean on the Lord, we lean even deeper into perfectionism, control & criticism. We run from discipline and say that ‘no time’ or ‘inconsistency’ keeps us from reading His Word & building deeper trust.
It’s time to prioritize our relationship with the One who created us, with the One who faithfully puts air in our lungs, with the only One whose presence will bring us the true & lasting peace that our busy mama hearts ache for!!
I know it’s hard, but it is so worth it.
This is me, five years after fully re-surrendering my life to our God!! I stand in humbled awe at what The Lord has done with my simple surrender & I smile with eager excitement for what is to come for you & for me!
My heart is eager with expectant anticipation at how The Lord will move in and through our individual lives & stories, because I trust that He will.
”Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her!” (Luke 1:45)
Slip on your shoes, strap on your little one(s) & lets go for a walk, we have a date with The Lord!!
All my love,
Your Sister,
Paige!!
