EP 9 // Anxiety in Motherhood: Why Jesus Says Anxiety Doesn’t Make You a Bad Mom

2024-04-10

To the Christian mom with anxiety: You’ve been told to pray harder. You’ve been told there’s nothing to be afraid of as long as you believe in Him and live a life full of faith. God tells us in Philippians 4:6-7: “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand." There is absolutely truth and comfort there, But what happens when that doesn't automatically cure us? Does that mean we are sinning?

To the Christian mom with anxiety:

You’ve been told to pray harder. You’ve been told there’s nothing to be afraid of as long as you believe in Him and live a life full of faith.

God tells us in Philippians 4:6-7: “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand."

There is absolutely truth and comfort there, But what happens when that doesn't automatically cure us? Does that mean we are sinning?

We live in broken bodies that inevitably fail us, and we live in a broken world that adds to all of the worry. There are also many women who live with a chemical imbalance in their brain, causing or adding to the anxiety.

In this episode, we dive into the ways we can break free from those thoughts that hold us captive, and replace our anxious thoughts with truths from above.

I pray this brings you rest, and remember…you matter too, mama!
