Lisa Smith: Being Called out of Empty Nest to a Hard & Holy Life
Christian stay at home mama, commited to the daily holy and hard of walking through trauma with her children. Mom to 3 biological grown boys, 2 months into the empy nest "dream", Lisa and her husband, Rod, knew deeply that God was inviting them to more. They adopted 3 kids from Ukraine and then another little girl from Bulgaria, creating a family of 9. Lisa bravely invites us into her family and shares what it is like these days during the Ukraine crisis. Parenting 3 kids from Ukraine during a war is a new level of hard, "hard on steroids", as she says.
She shares the keys to setting her home in peace, fostering a healthy marriage, preserving self and community, all while balancing the daily demands of being Mom! It is a tough job and I love the way she sets us all at ease and helps us realize that our feelings and needs are normal.
God went before this family, without a doubt, and made a way for what is so beautiful now. Even in the immense difficulty, Lisa is able to give thanks and see how sacred it is. She gives us so much life and energy today!
Stories take time and I'm always so intrigued by how deep and good it gets second half! I highly encourage you to invest in this hour. Listen to the end because Lisa gives it raw and real at the end and that is where the life is.
