There are moments in motherhood where life feels like one endless task. Where nothing seems to get done even though you’ve been working at it (what was “it” again?) all day. The dishes, the diapers, the homework assignments, the grocery shopping, the sporting events, the music lessons—and those all have to happen before five. Then it’s time for the evening cycle. Dinner, laundry, baths, story time, and the age-old, half-hour “but I don’t want to go to bed” drama. It’s enough to exhaust the most energetic person on earth. And tomorrow you get to do it all again. As a mother, staying strong amidst the continual depletion of reserves is no simple task. When we create time in our schedules to get quiet before God, something powerful happens. He gives us supernatural strength. He floods our minds with peace. He restores our joy. And he whispers to the deepest part of our hearts that it all matters. That we matter. As you reflect on the devotions, Scriptures, and prayers, be reminded that God sees every effort you make, and he is deeply pleased with your sacrifice. Sit quietly with him and let his love flow into every part of you. He has called you, and he will equip you with everything you need to get through each day.

Every new mom experiences a myriad of emotions—joy, love, the frightening, yet terrific reality that you are now responsible for a tiny little dependent. And in the midst of all these emotions—and burpings, feedings, diaper changes, and quick naps—moms need to be reminded of God’s awesomeness. In this gift-like book, new mom and best-selling author Sarah Arthur writes about how delivering her son three weeks early reminds her of God’s timing, how her trip home from the hospital with her newborn son tucked away in his car seat points to God being in control even when she is fearful, and how a mom’s concern over friendly strangers touching her young child in the grocery store also reminds her that people are sent to help. In a fresh and contemplative style, Arthur sits alongside Mom and helps her understand that God is in control . . . even when her life feels drastically out of control. This devotional will be a great companion for Mom during the small amount of time she gets to sit and be still and think of the truths of God’s word, while relating it to her new favorite subject—her baby.
