Have any big plans for Mother's Day? This holiday can bring loaded expectations for most of us, but what if this year, we started a new tradition? What if we asked our children to honor us by giving us a gift that will delight our hearts for eternity? This might just be the best Mother's Day ever.
Today I share with you a powerful story of hope. For the times that we feel like our prayers and gifts aren't really making a difference, this real life story will encourage each of us to do our part.

Do you feel like you can hardly keep it all together? I get it. There were many years that I felt like I was just holding on for dear life. I never found the secret formula to make it all work out, but God used the years to grow me and I gathered all the best advice and resources I could (along with lots of prayer). Today I don't feel like I am holding on for dear life anymore. But let me tell you....it is a daily battle! The laundry pile? It is still there...and it is HUGE. The dishes? They are there. The cleaning? Yep, you guessed it. Still there. And so on and so on. If I were to guess...you probably feel pretty similar.
What did you think motherhood would be like? What did you think life would be like? If your reality differs from your expectations, it can be easy to become discontent or stuck in a cycle where you pursue perfection. Maybe today its time to embrace the beauty of what you have before you! Today we are looking at a couple of myths that are common in motherhood and fighting to see the truth instead!
