Listen to the Everyday Prayers with Million Praying Moms Podcast every weekday to start your day in God’s Word and prayer for the people you love most.
I talked with some friends recently who said something that I thought perfectly captured the years between the ages of 12 and about 14. They said, one minute you’re so proud of who they’re becoming and the next you think they might be complete idiots. This is so true, but after talking with my friends, I realized that it’s also quite normal. The exponential growth our boys and girls are experiencing during this season makes them scattered, emotional, amazing, dramatic, smart, and a little bit fussy.
It also makes them more able to learn and embrace the world around them than ever before, and that’s a good thing. Except, I haven’t been enjoying it that much. I have been parenting from a place of fear and have let the stress of that lifestyle keep me from experiencing the joy of watching some of my very favorite people grow up.
Do you trust God to love your kids well? To have compassion on them when they need it? Listen to today’s episode from Brooke McGlothlin.

Your support helps Million Praying Moms keep this podcast going—all funds provide for the work of the team and systems necessary to bring you a new episode each weekday. In fact, the podcast has grown to the point that we desperately need to hire part-time help. In the month of May, we’re asking God to provide 100 new supporters. That’s a big ask, but we believe God can do it.
