In my cleaning rhythm, Fridays are my catch-up days. It's a time to look around the house and see what tasks may have slipped through the cracks during the week. But here's the beauty of it all: I no longer panic or feel overwhelmed by what didn't get done. Instead, I embrace it as my day of grace.
Motherhood is a journey filled with unpredictable moments, snuggles, giggles, and sometimes tears. It's a path that we walk with love, patience, and unwavering commitment. There will be days when your little ones need you more than the laundry or the dishes do, and that's not just okay – it's beautiful.
So, dear momma, I want to encourage you today. Don't get weary in doing good, because you're doing an incredible job. Those tiny hands that reach out for you, the innocent eyes that look up to you with trust, they are your greatest reward.
Remember the words from Galatians 6:9: "I pray you don’t get weary in doing good, for at the proper time you will reap a harvest if you do not give up!" Your labor of love, your sacrifices, and your devotion to your family will bear fruit in due time.
This Friday, take a moment to breathe. Look around your home and know that what's left to be done can wait. Your babies need their momma, and there's no more important job than being there for them.
So, let Friday be your day of grace. Let it be a reminder that you are doing an incredible job, and every little thing you do matters. The laundry can wait, but the moments with your children are precious and fleeting. Embrace the grace, momma – you've earned it.
