Living in this Modern World

Sweet Mommas, you are raising your babies in a world that seems to have gone crazy.

I see the hidden tears that often escape your eyes - tears you try so hard to keep at bay while you strive to embody strength and resilience for your little ones.

I hear your efforts to keep your babies safe, even as you realize you can't control the world around you. -The news cycles are filled with stories that leave many feeling helpless.

What kind of place is it that we live in where your loved one can be silenced, reduced to a limp, breathless shell of who he once was - a force of nature now diminished?

What should we do in a modern world that feels chaotic? I don't know about you, but this is what I am going to do.

Hold my babies a little tighter. Children are a beautiful gift. (Psalm 127:3-5)

Love my husband with all my might. (1 Corinthians 13)

Pray for them a little harder each day. (1 Thessalonians 5:17)

Then, give them to Jesus. (1 Peter 5:7)

Speak the truth to a broken world, and trust my Lord. (Acts 14:3, Ephesians 6:19)

Advocate for what is right, allowing the lives taken to inspire strength and hope as I carry the torch forward. (Matthew 28:18-19)

Join me, Friends! Let us love others well!
