We moms wear a lot of hats! We’re household managers, cooks, housekeeping delegators, family financiers, home educators, and maybe even work inside or outside the home. Handling all these responsibilities can become rather cumbersome and can leave our motivation and well-being sorely lacking.
We become weary—weary beyond what words can express. At times our parenting lifestyle feels lonely, our prayers hit the ceiling, and we, the usual full-time encouragers desperately long for support and encouragement for ourselves.
Well, the good news is we are never alone, and we have an available 24/7 cheerleader and encourager at our fingertips—His name is Jesus! And He’s in the business of giving His presence, grace, and fail-proof promises the weary mom! Below are some of the bible verses for moms that He has brought to my mind when I’m feeling most weary and discouraged. I hope they’ll bring hope and encouragement to you too!
