You don’t have to be enough.
You don’t have to know the right thing to do.
You don’t have to be an expert.
You don’t have to have all the answers.
You aren’t the one holding everything together.
It doesn’t have to be perfect.
It’s OK to be disappointed.
It’s OK to wonder, “how?”
I’m sure the Israelites wondered “How in the world are you going to do this, Lord?” when they faced the Red Sea on one side and the armies of the Egyptians on the other. But God did it…in a way they would never have dreamed possible. I can’t help but think that God is going to show up for you, too, mom. I don’t know what to expect, but I know we can expect Him to make a way, to be enough.
You don’t have to be enough, my friend. Why? Because Jesus already is. He’s in control. Give it all to Him.

Oh, I know this one so well. It’s almost as if I wrote this . Hello to all. I’m all in. Thank God for you.
I love this. You’re right, we want to be in control and we want a formula for raising kids that love Jesus and there just isn’t one. But surrendering it all to God and seeking Him to work in them and through me is why my boys are walking with God. Thank you for encouraging moms to pray! So well done.
