A Prayer to for the Weary Mama by Karolyn Roberts

Motherhood has a way of wearing us down—emotionally, physically, and spiritually. In today’s episode by Karolyne Roberts, we explore how choosing joy, even in exhausting and unexpected moments, can bring peace to our weary souls. When stress tempts us to react in frustration, God gently invites us to slow down, laugh a little, and rest in His goodness.

Reference: Matthew 11:28

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you today carrying the weight of motherhood, the beautiful, exhausting, overwhelming calling you've placed on our hearts. And we confess that sometimes we're so weary that we forget to choose joy, so overwhelmed that we react from stress instead of responding from your peace. Lord, help us to remember that even in our chaos, you are still good and your love for us never wavers.Give us the grace to laugh at the unexpected moments and to respond with patience when our plans fall apart and to model your unconditional love to our children. When we're tempted to be too hard on ourselves or our families, remind us to slow down and cast our burdens on you. Lord, we ask you to fill our homes with laughter, grace, and the beautiful truth that we are loved not because of our performance, but simply because we are yours. Thank you, Lord, for the gift of rest that comes from knowing we are held by you, even in our imperfection. In Jesus' name, amen.
