Postpartum Devotionals

If you find yourself frustrated, or even resentful, towards your spouse as you're feeling the weight of taking care of the baby, and it feels like they're not doing enough, I invite you to listen in. God's plan for you is not just for your family to thrive, but you and your spouse in your marriage as well. This episode is a reminder that He has the best of times ahead of you both!

I want to invite you to join me in learning how speak to others, our children, and ourselves the way that God would speak to us! Jesus says that there is death and life in the power of tongue, and as mothers we are perfectly positioned to declare the good plans that God has for our children!

If you feel stuck in the repetitive cycle of feeding, changing, and napping, know that God sees you even there! Hidden seasons are where we develop depth, patience, and become more like Jesus; there is a sacred equipping that only comes from hiddenness. Join me as we surrender some of our old ways and trust His good plan for us. 

If you feel selfish for going to a workout class, or pursuing your career, or doing anything that's not directly for your baby, I want to invite you into this episode!  God is calling each of us to a "both and" life, where He will make a way and grace you to all of the things He's put on your heart.

If you feel uneasy in the uneasy world around you, you can bring that to God - that's not too much for Him! Revisit in this episode how Peace doesn't deny the brokenness and anxiety of our world, but points us to a sense of tranquility and safety even in the midst. I pray you will unlock His Peace through the biblical practice of gratitude and prayer.

If you're worried about the extra financial burden of raising a family, listen in as we revisit the story of baby Moses in the Nile. God provides for Moses and His mom, and as God's daughters, that same Providence takes care of us too! 

If it seems like everyone else is living their best lives while you are missing out, know right now that you have not missed God's plan for you life. This is a season where He wants you close to Him, and your proximity to Him is confirmation that you're on the right track! I pray this episode affirms that you are exactly where God wants you.

If you have a hard time resting because you feel the pressure to conquer that to-do list, come learn about how rest is a gift from God! Pausing is essential to how He designed us; you can lean on God to take care of every detail of your life.

If you find yourself wondering whether your baby is breathing or not, or worried about any of the things that can go wrong, you're in good company! You're not faithless for worrying, and in fact Jesus loves to help us with our unbelief. Often times, we convince ourselves that knowing more will lead to having peace, but I pray this episode reminds us that we don't have be the ones to come up all the answers. 

If you feel so stretched thin that you're unable to get anything done or show up for anyone fully, I invite you to listen in. Jesus' invitation is for us to learn the rhythms of grace; the goal isn't that we're enough, or have everything perfectly balanced, but that we are reliant on the Him and His ability beyond our own.

Even you haven't had the time, or capacity, to pray and read the bible, know that God can still speak to you! The Holy Spirit is our teacher that reminds us of everything Jesus has ever said. So listen in and stay open to receive the words that He has spoken over you.

There are a million decisions you have to make as parent... fear and anxiety will try to council you, but know that you have access to the wisdom of the Holy Spirit. I pray as you listen in you will know that God cares about the all the little things that you care about.

If you're still wrapping your mind around your identity as a mom, I invite you to listen in and take the pressure off! Know that God has called and created you to be the mother of your child. So go forth boldly as you walk in your calling!

If you are feeling isolated and lonely, I invite you to listen in. God has a divine community set aside for you, but even more than that, know that He really is always with you. I pray you come to personally feel His tangible presence through this episode. 

If you are missing how life felt before your baby arrived, know you're not alone! I pray that this episode allows you to see the value of this season.
