There is always such rich, deep, sweetness in your words ... amen to the prayers between & in the lines ... Your children are truly blessed to have you ❤️🔥
I just had a baby 2.5 months ago and wow this hit home🥹 I have a masters degree, own my own business, and daily my prayers to the Lord are asking him to make a way for me to be able to just stay home with my baby girl and write. I was the hyperindependent type as well. And then I got pregnant and suddenly the only thing that mattered was raising babies in the Kingdom for His glory, homeschooling, baking bread if I can 😂. Thank you for sharing this Peta! Such a sweet read.
Thank you thank you for your beautiful words Peta.
I was crying while reading this. I have been feeling this way so so strongly, even more so since returning back to my faith. Last Easter I was pulled back to my Catholic faith after 17 years being away. This past year has been so transformative in so many ways, but the biggest has been learning about the sanctity of marriage and motherhood (lots of tears have been shed - I have been selfish for a long time). A lot of what I have learnt has come from the Saints, and as I was reading this, it made me think of Thérèse of Lisieux. Her “little way” - seeing God in all the ordinary and simple details of life.
Thank you again for writing this. God bless you and your family xx
All of the tears …. 🤍 so BEAUTIFULLY put Peta! God INstituted the vocation of MotHERhood as a missional Way of LivINg. MotHERs are LivINg examples of Christ's Love IN action, shapINg not just their Children but also their own Spirits, IN the likeness of His character. I have a piece IN my drafts on thIS theme and thread, and I AM goINg to sit down to Presence it today. Thank you for kINdlINg my Fire!
Feeling this so deeply and learning to navigate motherhood in the daily. Loving this season and yet wondering what about all my other dreams and aspirations I have for myself...in the paradox and so grateful to be a mother.
This is beautiful ♥️ becoming a mother has been the greatest blessing of my life, far more soul filling and satisfying than the years I spent travelling and “finding myself”. I only really found myself once I’d lost myself in motherhood.
Thank you so much for this share Peta, it touched my heart deeply. Happy Mothers day for Sunday xx 💗
This is really beautiful 🧡🧡
Reading this brought me so much peace. Happy Mothers Day to all🤍
Love this so much!
