It is easy to get bogged down by the great number of things that we as mothers juggle all of the time.
We can manage to keep it all going some of the time, but for all of us, there comes a time where it all crashes.
We can't keep the schedule working, or we aren't getting healthy food on the table regularly. Our laundry threatens to consume us...
When Jesus said that we should take no thought of tomorrow , He said it for us. He meant it for today. The needs of this day are enough to handle. How are you handling stress today?
Give your concerns to Jesus."
- Jackie Wellwood, One Hundred and One Devotions for Homeschool Moms
As a young mom homeschooling several young ones I found two honest books that encouraged me through the daily grind and sacred work of being a mother. I don't think I have shared these in the past so here they are:
Some of the chapters in this one include:
Bone-Tired
A Time for Order
Distracted by Too Much
Let's Quit
I Need Support
Passing the Wisdom Test
Mothers Aren't Supposed to Be Sick
A Bit Overwhelmed?
Home Sweet Home
Yes, Mommy is Crying
A Peaceful Mom
and her follow up to this is her second book:
Bone-Tired
A Time for Order
Distracted by Too Much
Let's Quit
I Need Support
Passing the Wisdom Test
Mothers Aren't Supposed to Be Sick
A Bit Overwhelmed?
Home Sweet Home
Yes, Mommy is Crying
A Peaceful Mom
and her follow up to this is her second book:
Jackie is a mom to seven children and has also authored another book that I have enjoyed:
Her books are honest and simple--straight from a mother's heart. I hope you will be encouraged by her as I was.
Some of these books are being sold for just a penny (used) on Amazon, so be sure to check it out!
