The Beauty of Motherhood

The early years of motherhood are filled with moments of great joy and wonder alongside day to day challenges. This collection of meditations will affirm the universal experiences that inspire laughter, awe and self doubt, encouraging moms to take a deep breath and see the beauty in the ordinary right in front of them. Each devotional reflection speaks to the full spectrum of parenthood, including growing pains, pregnancy, birth, weaning, body image, exhaustion, delight, comparison, vocation, friendship, and more. Busy moms will appreciate these short, engaging reflections they can pick up and read in a moment of quiet. Each section opens with a blessing and concludes with a reflection question or practice and a prayer. The authors encourage readers to recall memories of God's grace in their own motherhood journeys and be inspired to claim and share their own motherhood stories--
