A Prayer for When Things Feel Hard by Shalene Roberts

Motherhood is a beautiful calling—but it is also deeply challenging. In this episode we step into an honest moment from the trenches of parenting littles: the exhaustion, the guilt after a hard night, and the weight of feeling like we’ve fallen short. Through Jesus’ words in John 16:33, we are reminded that hardship is not a sign of failure—it’s part of living in a broken world.We cannot love, lead, forgive, or extend grace to our children through sheer willpower. Instead, we are invited to trust the One who has already overcome the world.

Reference: John 16:33

Prayer: Dear God, some days can feel overwhelmingly difficult. Whether it’s relationship conflict, financial stress, health concerns, or a plethora of other worries that can consume us, this life can feel really heavy at times. When we’re in the midst of a hardship, help us to remember to take heart because you have overcome the world.
