There are chapters of motherhood we'd rather skip past. The hard ones. The messy ones. But we can't fully appreciate the sacred gift of redemption until we've honestly looked at our need for it.

We come to you weary from the weight of the smothering rule and the pain of living in the fallen world. Remind us today that our brokenness need not defeat us. Rather, use it to draw us to you. Thank you for the cross. Thank you that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Let the miracle of the empty tomb be the foundation of our motherhood today. Where we are depleted, fill us. Where we are afraid, steady us. Where we are grieving, hold us. And let the resurrection power of Jesus Christ transform our ordinary, broken, beautiful motherhood into something eternal. In Jesus' name, amen. Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

There are moments in motherhood when we realize our children are learning far more from what we do than from what we say.

They're listening to the tone we use when we talk about others. One of the quietest, yet most powerful ways we can shape that understanding is through prayer.Reference: 1 Timothy 2:1-4Prayer: Lord, You see already the world our children will inherit. Yet, teach me to turn to You first, to speak with truth in love, and let my home be a place where praying for our leaders is not just something we say, but something we live. Teach me to hold high the lantern of prayer, that I may pass it on to light the way for others behind me. In Jesus’ precious name, amen.
