A Background on Hebrews
HEBREWS 3:1-19
(November 1)
It was June 16, 1963. She was suited up and buckled in for a three-day mission. Her vessel for this mission would be the Vostok 6 spacecraft. Completing 41 orbits around Earth, she cemented her place in history. Her name was Valentina Tereshkova. She was a 26-year-old Soviet cosmonaut. She is forever remembered for her mission as the first woman to visit space.
Mom-Sense, Inc. was created with the following mission in mind:
Mom-Sense began some years back as a “mom site” where women could get some wisdom in how to “make sense of motherhood”. It was a social media ministry set up to encourage mamas as they walked through the journey of motherhood.
God often takes our “little” and makes it into so much more. That is what He has done with this ministry. Through the course of navigating this ministry we have discovered that it is not just mamas who need support and encouragement. All women need that source of help. Yes, we have parenting struggles, but we also struggle in our marriages, in our singleness, in our friendships and family relationships. We are discouraged by our fears and anxieties. Some of us suffer through our grief and loss silently, while others battle depression and mental illness behind closed doors. We all have different issues with one common factor...we are all women who face struggles and need the love of Jesus and the sisterhood of other women who can bring us hope and encouragement.
So that is what Mom-Sense has evolved into…a source of mentorship, opportunity, motivation, service, encouragement, nurturing, sisterhood, and empowering women to be all that Christ calls them to be.

These are both missions, vastly different, but both very important. Hebrews 3 reminds us to keep ourselves focused on our mission as followers of Christ. Part of this mission is to be continuously growing, day by day, in our relationship with Christ, who was appointed by God to lead us.
Moses was also appointed by God to lead. If you remember, he was very hesitant to accept his role as leader of the Israelites. In his obedience, he led them out of Egypt, only to have them rebel time and time again, reverting back to their sinful ways.
Jesus wasn't hesitant in his appointed mission. In fact, he is the Son that is the leader over His own house, which includes us if we hold fast to our efforts of living a life for Him. We don't have to make the same mistakes the Israelites made, falling back to sin time and time again, with their hearts hardening in unbelief.
We can work together, lifting each other daily, walking alongside each other in accountability, sharing our love for each other and for God. Together, we can ensure that Jesus' mission on earth is successful, and that we are a part of the great victory.
