Have you ever questioned whether God speaks to us in this day and age? He does! God communicates with us even when we don't recognize the need to hear from Him.

Recently, I was reading the book of Exodus. Moses was quite a guy, a hero, in many ways. But when God first asked him to rescue the Israelites from the Egyptians, Moses had a lot of doubts. He questioned why God would choose him and even asked God to choose someone else. In addition, he wondered what to say if people questioned why they should listen to him.

How often do you question whether God is speaking to you? Do you question your purpose or your ability to fulfill it? I have. A million times!

Trusting in the unseen is difficult, especially when life and business are challenging or overwhelming or when one feels weary.

The story of Moses is an example of trust. And an example of salvation. Both apply to our lives today.

Salvation is a daily blessing from the Holy Spirit, a result of Jesus' death, resurrection, and ascension into heaven.

In Exodus 14, the Israelites reach the Red Sea, and Pharoh and his army are on their tails. Upon seeing Pharoh's army, the Israelites cried out to Moses that they should have stayed in Egypt and died there. They lost trust in God. Moses told them to be still and watch for God to save them. God reminded Moses that He was there to use his staff and hold it over the water to part the sea so the Israelites could cross it and be saved. When Moses listened, the sea was parted for the Israelites. They were saved.

I am paraphrasing and shortening the story. But the point is that God provided help for Moses so that he could accomplish what God called him to. And he still provides for us today and communicates with us so that we know what to do . . . if we listen.

When looking for mental health solutions it is essential to look at the whole body and find the right team of people to help discover what components are missing from your life. The brain is an organ, and when it is not taken care of, you will see signs and symptoms that often present themselves as some section of mental illness.

Mental health happens within the context of a healthy family unit. Mental illness is not something that is experienced on the sidelines. Healing mental health is not about sending someone away for an hour and hoping that someone else can fix them. Mental health as a holistic approach includes a family unit pressing in tight and being part of why someone wakes up and heals, surrounding the individual with love and support. When the rest of the world begins moving away and setting boundaries, the family unit provides love and support, whether all in the same house or not. Kids need a team for mental health healing.

Moms are the cornerstone of each home. They sense what is happening with their children and husbands and constantly seek solutions for their families' needs. When we prioritize the role of Moms keeping a pulse on all that is going on in the home and empower moms with what early warning signs of mental illness look like, it can help decline the number of mental illnesses.

Moms are already noticing when their children's sleep patterns change or if their appetite patterns shift; they are aware of friendships dissolving and see when their children lose interest in different activities.

Teaching moms how to recognize these potential early warning signs of a more significant mental health illness allows families to not always chalk up these changes as typical teen and tween behavior. Yes, all kids struggle in the tween/teen years to some degree, but knowing what could be typical and what seems like a greater cause for concern is something a mom, with the proper knowledge of what to look for, can help discern.

Helping our children find the right solutions for their mental health healing requires providing the right environment. There are so many different options and recommendations from various doctors and therapists. Look at the whole picture of your child's environment and tune into what they specifically need.

Life is a responsibility and a lot of it. It's okay when we feel weak because it's too much, or we may be burnt out and don't even know what to pray for. Times like these are when you need the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit will pray for you.

In Romans 8:26, Paul says, "In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans that words can not express. This assures us that we are not alone in solving our problems. When you feel so anxious, worried, fearful, doubtful, or exhausted that you don't know what to pray, ask the Holy Spirit to intercede for you. God will answer.

God is helping you pray, illuminating your fear of asking Him for help. When you pray or ask the Holy Spirit to intercede, ask according to God's will. We all want certain things, relief, or outcomes, but remember that as hard as it is to trust and believe His will, His plan for us is much better than ours.

Paul reminds us in Romans 8:28 that God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. All things. Not only some things, all things. The world is full of evil, and bad things will happen, but Christ overcame the world and can turn any circumstance into good. Remember that God is working for His purpose - to accomplish His purpose for us.

When you accept and love Christ as your Savior and have a renewed mindset through the work of the Holy Spirit, you will trust in God more. Seek security in Him, not in earthly treasures.

When negative emotions or thoughts swirl out of control, stop, breathe, and remember that you are sanctified through the Holy Spirit. That means He is willing and able to pray for you, and every day, He molds you to be more like Christ. As we become more like Christ, we recognize our true identity.
