Mother's Day

Mother’s Day.

To some, this is an incredibly powerful day of happiness. To others, this is an incredibly sorrowful day of sadness. And to still others, this is a day full of bittersweetness unlike any other.

The MommifiedLife is not for the faint of heart.

Some mommas wrestle with some of the toughest decisions on a daily basis and are held to a standard that no human can achieve. She feels the emotions of her children--carries their tears, shoulders their pain, shares in their joys, and doubles their laughter. She cheers from the sidelines while holding her breath. She fights the desire to intervene because she knows they need to learn that hard lesson. She leads them down the right path. She prays for them daily.

Sweet momma, I see you.

Some mommas carry the burden of loss that she is told by society not to share. She feels the pain of that lost pregnancy, that baby that went to heaven too soon, that child that passed away before her. She carries the sorrow and sadness on her heart as she keeps putting one foot in front of the other.

Sweet momma, I see you.

Some mommas carry the sorrow of desire, waiting for her chance to be called “momma.” She prays for the moment the test comes back positive, or that she receives the call that her baby is waiting to be picked up. She hopes, and holds her breath, with every possibility.

Sweet momma, I see you.

This Mother’s Day, I pray for all of the mommas and someday mommas. I pray that you feel God’s love and God's peace wrap around you today. That you see God’s plan in your life. That you know God’s purpose for you today, tomorrow, and always.

Sweet momma, may God bless you today, and always.
