A Prayer to Understand Joy, Glory & Suffering by Nicolet Bell


If we were honest for a second, we could all agree that motherhood comes with seasons of suffering. The sleepless nights. The worry that doesn't turn off. The relationships that are harder than you expected. The dreams you quietly set aside. The feeling that you're giving everything and still coming up short.It doesn't always feel like the kind of suffering people write about in theology books. But it's real. And it's heavy.

This week's episode reminds us that Jesus didn't just acknowledge our suffering. He prayed for us in the middle of it. In John 17, on the night before the cross, He asked the Father for us to one day share in His glory.Your suffering is not invisible. It's not meaningless. And according to Romans 8:17, it's actually connecting you to something far greater than you can see right now.This episode is for the mom who is tired, who is in a hard season, who needs to be reminded that the joy coming is worth the suffering you're carrying today.

Reference: John 17:22-24

Prayer: Father, we may never understand the connectedness of joy, glory and suffering. We so often want to share in your glory without sharing in your suffering. You sent your son, Jesus, to suffer on my behalf. He who knew no sin became sin so that we might become the righteousness of God. Thank you for this indescribable gift. When the way ahead seems uncertain, we know and believe that our suffering is never in vain and that you never leave us alone. Give us your strength to endure. In Jesus name, Amen.
