God, a lot of what I do as a mom feels like it’s not enough. It’s hard to give myself grace. In everything I juggle for my kids, the silent prayers I pray for them daily, and the small ways I love and care for my family, I want to honor You. Help me remember today that even in my feelings of exhaustion, frustration, and inadequacy, You are with me in every moment, “always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:20, NLT). In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
