Description
Oh, sweet mama, your tireless work has not gone unnoticed. You care for your family, work hard, help with your children’s schoolwork, take care of the household, and give so much of yourself. May you not grow weary from doing good. But, be encouraged my friend to keep going.
Take a step back and look at the bigger picture. Who are you doing all this hard work for? What is your motivation? So often we get caught up in the business of life and motherhood that we forget why it is we are working so hard. Mothers can tend to lose themselves, and forget who they are. Our identity gets tied to something else like their children, career or something else.
“but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised” Proverbs 31:30b
Remember my friend to keep your eyes fixed heavenward in all you do. May you find JOY in the work of your hands, in your family, and the Lord.

Reflect
Who are you and in whom do you place your identity? Why are you working so hard? What do you do that gives you inner joy? Pray and ask for God’s leadership in all areas of your life.
