If you are a mom, I know you can related. We all have those moments of feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, even to a point of being burnt-out. It's not easy being a mom. It's not easy also having other titles such as wife, friend, sister, and etc. Trying to find a balance and then of course finding time for yourself!
We are not suppose to be superheroes, but we get up everyday and get it done. Some days we don't even want to get out of bed, the house is a mess, we have laundry to fold, dishes to wash, our job is never done. But give yourself some grace. You are an amazing mom, an amazing woman, You got this! You are doing things many of us can't do, handling things many of us can't handle.
God want you to be honest with Him and yourself. Feeling frustrated? Tell Him! He wants us to give our burdens to Him. He wants to help us to lighten the load. He is there to help and guide you. If you feel you are at a point of being burnt-out, ask for some help. It doesn't make you less of a mom if you do. There are also many people who are willing to help so you can get a break.
Tune in and know that besides everything you are feeling and going through, if you didn't hear it today,.. I am proud of you. Today is just one of those days where you are frustrated, overwhelmed, and probably being negative, but there's always tomorrow. Embrace the good & bad days.
There's a saying that goes "The best things in life are on the other side of fear." Fear stops us from pursuing many ideas, dreams, God's calling, and decisions. What are you afraid of at the moment? What is preventing you from taking that leap of faith?
In the Bible, we see many people who were afraid, allowed fear to put a hold on their calling, but what did God do? What does God say? He is always by our side, we shouldn't be afraid for He is with us wherever we go. We have to be bold, courageous and have faith. So no matter how big is the dream or idea, we serve a mighty God, we shouldn't be afraid. #faithoverfear
And if we are afraid to make that jump to the other side, Do It Scared!! Fear is only temporary. Once we overcome that fear, it doesn't seem so big anymore. We feel empowered, brave, and we feel motivated. So I encourage you to try out my top 3 tips to overcome fear, start walking by faith and make Godly decisions. Start allowing God to guide you and walk with you every step of the way. It's time to stop letting fear get in the way. It's time to jump!
