A Prayer for Those in Waiting

I have confidence that You have been working and will continue working to fulfill Your plan in my life for my good and for Your glory. Father, in this season of waiting, I need You near to me.

Forgive me for allowing my thoughts to spiral into worry instead of taking those thoughts captive and turning them into prayers. Forgive me for giving into fear and anxiety instead of trusting in Your promise that You are good, and You care for me. Forgive me, Lord, if I exalt myself by allowing my circumstances to dictate my faith and trust in You. Forgive me for wasting my moments on what-ifs instead of using my moments to worship. Be evident to me, God. Bring to my mind the evidence of Your [...]

Ep. 78 –  A Conversation About Firsts

A Conversation about Firsts In this week's episode, Michelle and Somer get an early start on celebrating Mother's Day as they talk through navigating the firsts we encounter as moms, such as: the semi hot-take that over-preparation steals more joy from the moment than it actually prepares you how the unknown gives us the opportunity for deeper dependence on the Lord the connection between firsts and God's faithfulness Bonus: Introducing a new segment - I Disagree With... - If you're not a mom and debating listening or not, here's our heart that we shared in our book: "If you're a woman and a believer, changes are that whether you have biological children or not, you will someday take on (if you haven't already) a maternal role in someone else's life. Maybe a teenager from your church you're discipling, a niece or nephew, or a young woman at work who has a strained relationship with her own family. So when we talk about motherhood here, it is not to exclude women without children, but to acknowledge, first of all, one of the greatest areas of contention in a working woman's life -- being a mom who works -- and [...]
