Chapter 9: Hope for the Journey

This chapter sums up beautifully everything we have talked about throughout the entire book so far. It is meant to be a heartfelt encouragement for you, mom, as you continue to persevere in your calling to motherhood. Some big takeaways from this episode:

"GOD DOES NOT CALL THE EQUIPPED, HE EQUIPS THE CALLED."

Believe this today, friend. God has called you to this task of motherhood, and He is equipping you and with you every step of the way. Trust in Him as your companion to finish well.

"Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfector of faith. For the joy set before Him he endured the cross, scorning it's shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

Hebrews 12:1-2

May you, mom, count it all as joy. Whatever road lies beforeyou. Joy in the serving. Joy in the suffering. Because God is working in it all. And He is using whatever it is to shape you into the beautiful mama He has created you to be.

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.”

James 1:2-3

I pray this book has brought you hope and encouragement and most of all helped point your heart towards the true source of rest, Jesus. Thanks for being here!
