Summary

COME, FOLLOW ME MOMS Episode 20 May 11–17 Deuteronomy 6–8; 15; 18; 29–30; 34 “Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord” Hey mamas, welcome back to Come, Follow Me Moms. 💗 This week we are at the END of Moses’s life. Moses stands on a mountain looking out at the promised land , a land he spent 40 years helping the children of Israel get to… but a land he himself would not enter. And instead of bitterness or frustration, Moses gives one final message to the people: Remember. Don’t forget God. Choose life. Love God with your whole heart. Be one of the few. And honestly mamas… this message feels SO relevant for us today. Because have you ever felt spiritually disconnected? Not because you stopped believing… but because life got loud? Laundry. Practices. Groceries. Phones. Schedules. Pregnancy. Exhaustion. Motherhood. And slowly, without even realizing it… your heart drifts a little. This week in Deuteronomy, Moses gives his farewell message to a generation that mostly DIDN’T personally see all the miracles. They didn’t cross the Red Sea. They didn’t escape Egypt. They didn’t see manna fall from heaven or water come from a rock. And that feels a lot like our generation today. We didn’t cross the Red Sea either… but we CAN experience Jesus Christ. We can remember Him. We can recognize His hand in our lives. Moses’s final message was all about the HEART. “Love the Lord thy God with all thine heart.” Deuteronomy 6:5 This is not surface-level faith. This is heart-level faith. Not performance Christianity. Not checkbox Christianity. Connection. Cassie shares her experience of once being a “checkbox mom” spiritually checking off scripture study, temple attendance, tithing, and Family Home Evening without truly building a relationship with God. Over time, she realized God wasn’t asking for perfection. He was asking for her heart. She also shares a tender moment with her 13-year-old son who reminded her they hadn’t been to the temple in awhile. Kids notice what fills our homes. They notice what matters to us. So the question becomes: What is actually in my heart right now? Fear? Comparison? Stress? Overwhelm? Control? Or: Trust? Peace? Faith? Jesus? Moses’s Message: Remember One of the strongest themes this week is remembrance. “He parted the sea. Manna fell from heaven. Water came from a rock. And they STILL forgot.” How often do we forget our own Red Sea moments? The answered prayers. The miracles we already survived. The moments God carried us. The healing He already gave us. The random text from a friend at the exact right moment. The song that came on when we needed it most. Sometimes we panic like God has never been faithful before. Moses pleaded with the people to remember because he knew he would not be going with them into the promised land. And today, prophets continue to plead with us to hold onto our faith, our testimonies, and the moments we have felt God in our lives. A Sacred Mother’s Day Experience Cassie shares a sacred experience from this past week after a mother in her ward unexpectedly passed away in a car accident. On Mother’s Day, she felt prompted to gather women from the ward and sing to the grieving family, despite fears of bothering them. Through prayer and prompting, they followed through. After singing, the family shared that one of the songs sung was the mother’s favorite song in heaven. It became a gentle reminder to always follow spiritual promptings and to remember the sacred moments God gives us. When miracles happen in your life… remember them. Write them down. Hold them close. “You Have Been in This Mountain Long Enough.” Deuteronomy 1–2 This scripture is SUCH a powerful invitation for moms. Some of us have been stuck in: shame comparison fear old identities pain discouragement And maybe God is gently saying: “You have been here long enough. It is time to move forward.” Teaching Children About Jesus in Everyday Moments Deuteronomy 6 teaches that we teach our children: when we sit, when we walk, when we lie down, and when we rise up. This is NOT about creating a perfect 30-minute scripture study every day. This IS: talking about Jesus in the car praying during chaos reading one verse at bedtime pointing out God in everyday life And mamas… that counts. “Beware Lest Thou Forget the Lord” The Israelites were about to enter a season of blessings, comfort, and abundance… and strangely enough, THAT was when they were most at risk of forgetting God. Sometimes we think we need God most when life is hard. But often we drift furthest when life simply becomes busy and comfortable. You don’t forget God overnight. You forget Him slowly: by rushing through prayer relying only on yourself filling your life with noise putting Him last And eventually you feel disconnected… not because God left, but because you stopped remembering. Helping Others With a Willing Heart Deuteronomy 15 teaches us to “open thine hand ...
