Episode 24: An Inconvenient Truth
from The BAD Mom Show · host badmomshow
In today’s episode, I’m talking honestly about something we all experience (and complain about) but don't often talk about. I had a moment where the Holy Spirit put me in check and opened my eyes to this question: Are you willing to be inconvenienced? Ouch. You know those moments. You've likely had at least one of them already today: You cleaned up the house and the kids come make a toy/shoe/school paper explosion. You take time to prepare dinner and no one likes it. You fold their clothes neatly only to find them in a ball in the drawer. There are lots of ways we show up as moms and no one notices. No one thanks you and before you know it that voice in your head starts grumbling, 'nobody cares about how much I do', 'I'm just here to serve' and, 'my needs don’t matter.' Be honest! Can you relate? You're not alone. It all started with me sweeping the floor- yet again- and feeling very inconvenienced by our new puppy (if you haven't met him yet, go check out my feed @thetheresatodd to see the moment I brought him home!). It turned into a moment where God highlighted some truths I was feeling, things I needed to reflect on AND repent about. Our stories, colliding with the world's view of motherhood as a thankless season that robs you of purpose, really sets us up for feeling like the victim of our own blessings. This is a conversation about pride, performance, control, and what God can teach us in the middle of the 'inconvenient' messy parts. If you’ve been feeling invisible, unappreciated and irritated by the mundane tasks of motherhood, you're in the right place! You're not alone and there’s so much freedom in acknowledging your feelings honestly and sharing them. Motherhood isn’t about getting everything right and the more you become aware of your triggers, your body sensations, and the thoughts attached to those 'inconvenient' moments, the quicker you begin to heal the story and operate differently.
