Hannah Keeley tells mothers that showing God you're serious through daily habits like waking early and managing money translates into God being serious about changing your life. She walks through concrete steps: wake an hour earlier, fold laundry immediately, track spending, hold weekly money meetings.

Hey mama, it's Hannah here.
Now today we need to talk about why it's so important that you show God you're serious. And also, darling, I got to give you some straight talk on sleeping in.
Here's the big question. How are these average everyday moms getting radical results in their lives? How are they able to transform their health, money, families, homes, and have fun doing it?
The trick?
We're not average.
I'm Hannah Keeley and I'm going to.
Spill our secrets and answer your questions right now in that mom show.
Now this is the deal this morning. First, it's Sunday morning, I'm getting ready for church, but I've got to use the guest bathroom because my husband needs to take a shower and, and he's all modest and stuff. So I am actually, right now, while I talk to you, I'm. You can probably hear the sink going. I'm taking off my old eye makeup from yesterday, putting on some clean makeup. You'll probably hear the dry shampoo going in a minute. You know how it is. You know it is for moms. We live and breathe by that dry shampoo, y'. All. I'm just saying. I don't know what your record is, but I think mine's about four or five days without a hair washing. Love a dry shampoo. Okay, so we need to talk about what happened this morning because, y', all, I slept in. Like I'm just straight up share with you. I slept in and it was not a pretty sight. Like I woke up and, and I know I have to do the things I got to do. Like I gotta have my cup of coffee, I gotta take my dog on a two mile walk. I've. I've got to have my devotion. Like these things are non negotiable. These routines are non negotiable. And I want to get you to where your routines are non negotiable too. You do not even let your feelings or the clock or whatever have a vote in the matter. It's like, well, I got to do it. So I woke up late, jumped out of bed, wasn't a pretty sight. And I had to, you know, get dressed, take the dog on a walk. And, and because I like to, to have my time in the morning, I like to ease into the day, you know, but today I had to kind of scrunch everything in there. But I want you to understand my version of sleeping in is I Woke up at 6:45 and that was sleeping into me because I usually wake up around 5:30. And you know there was a time when I had to wake up at 4:30. So I'm just saying that that was, that was my version of waking up. And I was thinking about that this morning. How really you just, you make your habits, then your habits make you. But when you are starting to create any type of life improvement, y', all, I can't find my primer. I'm gonna go in the bathroom where my husband is taking a shower and I am going to grab my primer and go back to the bathroom. So you're with me. Okay, Come with me. Don't look at my husband. He's naked. Okay. Yep, yep. But naked. All right. There's my primer. Found it. Life is good. Now I can move back into the bathroom. Okay, cool. All right, so this is what I'm sharing with you. Wow. I got an eyeful, y', all, who wait a start my day. Going to get my worship on this morning at church. All right, y' all forgive me. You know how I am. All right, so you got to show God you're serious. And until you show God you're serious, like he ain't going to be serious with you. Like, if you want a serious life change, you've got to take the steps. If you want to get serious with your life, then your life's going to get serious with you. If you only get serious with God, God's going to get serious with you. But when you tiptoe around things and kind of keep on negotiating with your future, with the promise that God put on you, you're going to keep on staying stuck. And this is what happens. You have to take that serious step because we'll want to see results in our lives. But we're not taking ourselves seriously or our future self seriously. We're not taking that whole promise that God has placed on our life seriously enough. We're kind of playing around with it, tiptoeing through it, and you got to get serious. So you can't tell me that you want to change your life and take control of your home and take control of your body, of your health, of your family, and sleep your butt in every single day. You can't tell me you're serious when you're climbing out of bed at 8 and 9 o' clock in the morning. You can't. You're not serious yet. You're not serious enough for the heavens and earth to start moving on your behalf. But when you get serious. I remember one of my first steps was I started folding the laundry and I got Serious about that, man. That was my first step. Like as soon as that laundry came out of the dryer, it was folded and put away. It was not just waiting for me, you know, hours or days later, it was folded, it was put away. I had to get serious with that one step in my life. And when it came to my health, I had to get serious. I had to get up in the morning, non negotiable and start walking. Show up. When you show up for that promise, that promise is going to show up for you. But you got to get serious about it. So you can't tell me that you're serious about making more money or getting out of debt if you don't even have a stinking budget, if you don't even know where your money's going, if you're not even tracking your money, then you can't tell me you're serious about this.

So I'm really serious today about you getting serious with your life. I know a lot of times I'm joking and playing around, but y', all, not today. Today there is something in front of you that you have got to take seriously. And if you're sleeping in every day and I consider eight, nine o', clock, that is sleeping in. One of my. Another one of my first steps was I had to start getting up in the morning. I was letting the kids wake me up. Like as soon as there was an emergency. I actually got you guys going to hear some dry shampoo. Okay? As soon as you know there is an emergency and the kids needed mama. That's when I woke up. But you know what? I had to start waking myself up. I had to get serious about my days because my days were just bleeding one into the next. Nothing productive, nothing going on. I wasn't seeing results. So I had to get serious about my day. What can I do to take my day seriously? Get up in the morning. And that was when I had little kids. And you know how little kids will get up, like it six, maybe even earlier than that. I knew I Had to get stuff done in the morning. So my day would start at 4:30. I would wake up at 4:30 so I would have enough time to do my devotion. And I was so tired, y'. All. Sometimes I would have to do my devotion standing up because I knew I'd fall asleep. Like, had to get serious. But if you're not being serious about your life, you're not going to see any results. Sleeping in it shows you're not taking it seriously. Not tracking your spending, you're not taking your money seriously. Not caring about what you stick in your mouth, you're not taking your body seriously. So what is a serious step you can take right now in your life? Is it waking up and hour earlier? Is it, you know what? Let's. Let's start tracking our spending. Let's start meeting. Have a meeting about our money every single week so we can see where it's going, how we can come back, cut back where we can invest, that kind of thing. Is it getting serious about your kids? You don't want to be distanced from your kids. What can you do to take that relationship seriously and invest in it? Is it having a date once a week with your kids? Is it texting them a video message every day, tell them how much you love them? What can you do? Because it takes a serious person to get results and to get into invest. I'm not talking about, like, walking through life with this, like, somber attitude. And no, I'm saying put some skin in the game. Stop begging God for a miracle when. When he's like, I already put the miracle in you. Now wake up and let it happen. You've got to start taking this thing called your life to a new level. See how you can invest. Because I'm getting so frustrated, y', all. And I know you get frustrated by always wanting to have a change in your life, but you're not willing to get out of your comfort zone to get it. Every success, every breakthrough, every miracle that you have been begging for is right outside your comfort zone. It may mean crawling your butt out of bed at five in the morning, because if you're sleeping and you're not serious, you're not. You're just. You're not serious about a life change. Go ahead and just, like, spend your time on social media, hang out, watch tv, whatever. But there comes a time when you got to put some skin in the game. You got to be willing to do something, invest in yourself. You can't be serious about making a life change if you're not even willing to invest in Mom Master University. Are you inside the university? Are you getting the training and the coaching that you need to rise up to a new level? Show God you're serious. And he's going to get serious with your breakthrough, with your miracle. It's already there, but you got to step into it. So I know it may not be what you want to hear this morning, but I'm just saying it was on my heart. And I know there's some women who are really struggling, and I know. I've been there. I know what you want to see in your life. I know how frustrating it can be when you're not seeing it. So this is how you do it. Show me you're serious. Don't. Don't you get frustrated with the people who are always talking a big game, but they never do anything? You know I'm talking about. You're like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know people who. They talk about all the things they're going to do, and they talk about the places they're going to see and the books are going to write and they're sleeping until 10. No, you ain't. You ain't serious. You're dreaming. Just. Just keep dreaming because that's all you're doing. Why not? Let's do something crazy, y'.
All.
Why not? Let's dream with our eyes open. Yeah, it's okay to close your eyes and rest, but wake up, get your butt out of bed, open your eyes, and let's start making those dreams a reality. Because nothing's going to happen. Your butts in bed, those dreams are going to stay in the dream realm, and you will never see it happen. And those people that you were put here to bless will never see it happen if you don't take some serious action today. I love you. I love you so much. And that's why I share. This is why I do what I do. Because my goal is like, my. My addiction is to see some radical, amazing breakthroughs happen in your life. And I know you've got it in you. I love you so much. Wake up, get out of bed, and let's get after it, okay? Be blessed like crazy. Bye.
