There are chapters of motherhood we'd rather skip past. The hard ones. The messy ones. But we can't fully appreciate the sacred gift of redemption until we've honestly looked at our need for it.

A Prayer for Christ to Transform my Ordinary, Broken, Beautiful Motherhood by Shalene Roberts

Reference: Romans 5:8

Prayer: Lord, we come to you broken. We come to you weary from the weight of the smothering rule and the pain of living in the fallen world. Remind us today that our brokenness need not defeat us. Rather, use it to draw us to you. Thank you for the cross. Thank you that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Let the miracle of the empty tomb be the foundation of our motherhood today. Where we are depleted, fill us. Where we are afraid, steady us. Where we are grieving, hold us. And let the resurrection power of Jesus Christ transform our ordinary, broken, beautiful motherhood into something eternal. In Jesus' name, amen.
