Renewed Motherhood

In all the ways kids slow us down, we are reminded that our worth is not tied up in what we do or produce but in the finished work of Christ.

Beside Quiet Waters: Our needs are not something to shove down in an attempt to be better or stronger; rather, our needs are something to be embraced as the pathway to God.

Beside Quiet Waters: Devotional 1 - In the exhaustion and demands of motherhood, Psalm 23 invites you to draw near to God, your Good Shepherd. When you are weak and weary, you can fall back upon him to sustain you and your family.

As parents, we get the unique opportunity to observe up close the unfolding of our kids' lives and to spur them on in the areas we see God at work. The character of Barnabus in Acts teaches us three godly aspects to incorporate into our encouragement.

In our suffering - our loneliness, postpartum depression, health issues - it can be easy to question God. Acts reminds us that God is sovereign over all and uses even our trials to further his mission. Even when we don’t see a purpose, we can trust there is one, and push on.

We need confidence to engage the world around us and to point people to Christ. But it’s not just evangelism that we need help with. The ordinary things in the day-to-today of motherhood often require immense bravery as well. Act’s account of Stephen points us to our source of bravery and reminds us to look to Christ.

Even in the season of raising kids where there are so many demands on our finances and our time, God calls us to trust him and hold loosely to what he has given us. Resting in the security of God’s fatherly care, we can be freed from anxiously holding on to what we have and enter into a life of generosity.

We are called to be vessels of God’s healing power as we join him in his work to mend the brokenness around us. This can be as simple as lovingly bandaging the scraped knee of a toddler or offering emotional support to a friend who has just suffered a miscarriage. Acts reminds us that any instance of God’s healing at work is nothing short of a miracle. 

Wondering how to share the Gospel with your kids or those you do daily life with? To be a witness for Christ, we don’t have to have a shocking testimony story or be professional apologists. We simply authentically share what God has done in our life.
