#53 When God Is Silent: Staying Anchored in Motherhood

She Rises is a Christian podcast for women who want their homes and hearts shaped by biblical truth rather than cultural pressure. In this episode, Johanne Hewlett explores how to stay anchored in faith when God feels silent and prayers in motherhood seem unanswered.There are seasons in motherhood when you pray sincerely and yet nothing seems to change.You ask God for wisdom with a child. You pray for patience in your own heart. You ask for clarity in situations that feel complicated and emotionally weighty. Yet life continues quietly — without dramatic answers or obvious breakthrough.In this episode, Johanne reflects on Psalm 13 and the honest lament of David: “How long, O Lord?” Together we explore how faith grows not only through answers, but through trust formed in silence.You’ll hear about:Why God’s silence does not mean His absenceHow Scripture allows space for honest lamentThe temptation to over-manage when waiting feels uncomfortableWhy much of God’s work happens invisibly before it becomes visibleHow mothers can remain anchored in trust during long seasons of prayerIf you are praying for something in your child’s life and wondering whether God is listening, this episode will help steady your heart.If your faith feels stretched thin in this season, Rise & Restore was created to help Christian women realign their thinking and rebuild spiritual steadiness in everyday life.You can learn more here:👉 johewlettauthor.com/ministry/she-risesUse the code PODCAST for 25% off.If this episode blessed you and you'd like to help keep the podcast ad-free:https://ko-fi.com/johannehewlettI hope this episode encourages you in your motherhood and faith.Until next time —walk faithfully, rest deeply, and keep rising steadily.— Johanne#SheRisesPodcast #ChristianMotherhood #FaithInMotherhood #ChristianMum #ChristianMom#BiblicalMotherhood #ChristianWomen #FaithAndMotherhood #ChristianParenting#ChristianEncouragement
