Motherhood is one of life's most joyful yet most difficult gifts. We
are eager to get it "right," yet parenting usually highlights
our weaknesses and leaves us worried about our mistakes.These
hope-filled, positive devotions recognize the realities and pressures,
joys and disappointments of motherhood and will give you a precious
reminder of grace from God's word to hold onto each day. They will
help you to trust that God's grace is enough for you and your kids.
As the authors say in the introduction, "Our children do not need a
perfect mother. What they do need is a mother who recognizes her need
for a perfect Savior and understands that this is the greatest need of
her children as well". As you focus on the work of Jesus rather
than your own efforts, you will feel less pressure and more freedom and
joy in all the ups and downs of motherhood.Written by a mother-daughter
combination (one with four kids aged 10-16, one with three grown kids
and ten grandchildren) who are both grateful recipients of God's
grace and faithfulness in the many seasons, situations, and realities of motherhood.
