Mother's Day 2024 | Meaning in the Mess | Craig Smith
Motherhood is messy. And it’s not just dirty diapers or cleaning out the sports bags and nasty lunch boxes.
It’s the middle of the night prayers for your kids (even when they are adults). It’s going back and apologizing when you’ve lost your temper. It’s learning how God made your kids uniquely and how to parent each of them differently. It’s learning how to surrender them to God, from the first day of preschool to dropping them off at college. It’s celebrating their successes and letting them experience the consequences of their poor choices. It’s navigating new technology, cultural influences, and life challenges by relying on God’s grace.
Motherhood is the hundred tiny ways that you model the gospel, day in and day out.
And while motherhood is messy, this Mother’s Day we pray God shows you the meaning in the midst of the mess.
