Prayers From The Heart

Too often, I forget. I come before You with a list of needs, burdens, and anxieties I ask You to fix what hurts and remove the discomfort of waiting. My prayers become about me and I fix my eyes on my circumstances instead of Jesus. My faith feels weak when my eyes settle on all the uncertainty around me.

As this new day begins, let the words of this beloved song become the prayer of my heart:“In the morning when I rise, in the morning when I rise, give me Jesus. You can have all this world, give me Jesus.”

I recently had the opportunity to write for MOMQ about what it means to pursue Christ-like motherhood, not perfect motherhood. In this article, I share encouragement for moms who feel weary, discouraged, or unsure if they’re enough, along with biblical truths about sacrificial love, sanctification, and creating a sanctuary within the home. If you’ve ever felt like motherhood was too much, this message is for you.
