God takes care of you

Often we run ourselves ragged making sure that everyone around us that we care for is taken care of. Sometimes it can leave you wondering who will be there to take care of you when you need it.

God is with you even on your hardest days.

He is there when you fall short and call your toddler a turd.

He is there when you throw the sippy cup at the wall.

He is there when you hide from your kid in your pantry as you stuff Oreos into your mouth.

He is there when you cry outside their bedroom doors at night as you watch them sleep and wonder how on earth you get to be so lucky as to be their mother.

Isaiah 66:13

As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; you shall be comforted in Jerusalem. Isaiah 66:13 ESV

God is going to help you, momma. He is your help and He is your strength. He didn’t just give you these kids to leave you on your own to figure it all out.

He gave His one and only son so that your babies could live and grow and thrive. He will help you do right by them.

Children are a gift & you are equipped to do this!

I have a quote on the wall in my home that reminds me on tough days to watch my perspective. It says, “These are the days we prayed for.”

Now that doesn’t mean I have to pretend hard days aren’t challenging. It just means these are the hard days I choose, and I would rather have these challenges.

You are equipped to handle this. There are things that only you can teach your babies, and those things will serve your children all the days of their lives.
