When we feel hidden by the mundane demands of motherhood, we find hope in remembering The God Who Sees us.

Intentionally seeking out evidence of God’s grace—in ourselves, our children, and even our circumstances—is a powerful and practical way to battle discouragement in motherhood.

When motherhood doesn’t satisfy the restless longings of our heart, we’re reminded that our true purpose isn’t in a role, but in a Person—Christ himself.

Delighting in God’s good gifts even in suffering doesn’t negate our pain—it helps sustain and guide us through it.

Our creative expressions can serve as beautiful beams of light, reflecting the goodness and grace of our Creator in a darkened world.

Garden themes throughout Scripture give us insight into God’s great work of cultivation in our hearts.

Reading as families helps us behold the incarnate Word and see all stories in light of his Story.

As we enter into joyful celebrations with our children, we can reflect God’s overflowing heart of grace and delight towards his children.

Exploring and trying new things in God’s world can be a way of reflecting our hope in the greatest adventure—salvation through Christ.

Cultivating our children’s imaginations can help prepare them to think big thoughts about our glorious God and the wonderful world he has made.

As we seek true and lasting joy, Christ shows us the way and serves as our example.

When we take a break from cultural expectations, we can approach Advent with an attitude of playfulness and rest, delighting in the Lord and his good gifts.
