Somehow, some way you became a mom. After nine months of pregnancy, or prayerful hours of waiting for your forever child, you became fitted with a new title, Mom, and a new responsibility, Motherhood. You may not have a degree or beautiful diploma to make you feel qualified for the position, but you have been hand picked by God to carry out the calling of being your child’s mommy.
Becoming a mother, however, doesn’t mean you cease being a saved-by-grace child of God.
Somehow, we mommas tend to forget that the definition of me is not written by the Crayola scribbled antics of our little diapered dynamo. We become women so intense on a mission of raising great kids, keeping a perfect home, and earning the title of best helpmate to our hubby, that we forget the other dimensions of our lives simply defined by being the Daughter of the King. While being passionate about serving our families is a good, practical pursuit, striving to do so while neglecting ourselves and our relationship with God is a recipe for disaster.
