When suffering keeps us from investing in our families the way we’d hoped, we take comfort that God can use it to point our children to him as their ultimate caregiver.

As we wait out the uncomfortable last weeks of pregnancy, we can turn our eyes towards the truer, better deliverance to come in Christ Jesus.

When we’re overwhelmed at the prospect of welcoming another child, we can anchor our plans and rest our worries on God—who is sovereignly working out good for our families.

Through the unknowns of a high-risk pregnancy, we can trust in the God who works to bring order from disorder—and who never leaves our side along the way.

When postpartum anxiety reminds us of our inability to boast in ourselves, we can lean into the Savior whose “power is made perfect in weakness” (2 Cor. 12:9).

When birth stories don’t go according to plan, we can look ahead in hope to Christ, our true Deliverer—who will one day free us from all effects of the curse.

As we experience different stages of motherhood, we can faithfully cast a vision of God’s faithfulness for those in seasons behind us.

There are many demands on our time in the postpartum stage but also precious opportunities for rest, growth, thankfulness, and ministry to others.

In the midst of a busy, distracted world, incorporating a few simple practices in our lives can keep us grounded in God’s ever-present care for us.

There are many ways we can cultivate our relationship with the Lord, even when we’re short on time and sleep.

Our hormones are tools in God’s hands for our good and his glory.

Whether we work inside or outside of the home, we trade the worth that we find in our work for the worth of the finished work of Jesus.
