    How do we rest in the truth that God made us for this role, when we feel so inadequate? Are you the mama struggling with anger? The mama who has her own trauma to heal from while placing so much pressure on herself to be something more for her kids? Or maybe the mama who finds relationships complicated, life unraveling or constantly feeling like a failure? We know all too well how difficult it can be to find confidence in who God created us to be when we are so aware of our shortcomings, but God's grace says more and we are exploring all these hard questions in 2023, so that the voice loudest in our lives is that of our maker.

    On today's podcast we recognize that Christmas doesn't always feel happy and the emotions we experience can be complicated, yet there is still joy and hope to be found in this season. "Jesus doesn't give you what you need, Jesus IS what you need. Your heart was created by Him, for Him. You can fight and claw to gain the world, but without Jesus, you will never be completely satisfied.If there is a growing discontent deep inside your heart - a hunger that hasn't been completely satisfied by the people, pleasures, parties, material things, or accomplishments - today is the day to open your heart to the idea that it is Jesus that you were made for. But you have to walk away from the "less", and ask Him to become your "more". Jesus is enough for you, and He is here." Louie Giglio, Waiting Here For You.
