We are SO glad you are here! Brave Moms is a movement of moms joining together to leave weariness behind. We believe that God’s heart is to equip and sustain us in motherhood. His heart is so tender towards us. He not only tells us to be strong, courageous, unafraid and not to be dismayed but He equips us for all of these things by being with us each step of the way (Joshua 1:9).
If you are feeling tired, overwhelmed and weary I want you to know that you are not alone. I (Kristin) felt that same way. I would spend time with God in the morning and leave that time feeling great only to start my day and by 10 am I was back to feeling weary. No matter how hard I tried I couldn’t get off the crazy rollercoaster going up and down from feeling great and back to weary. I begged God to show me how to mother from a place of victory rather than defeat.
The good news is that He showed me how to leave weariness behind and put a burden on my heart to show you how too. He loves you so very much and longs for you to know His heart for you and walk in it.
Here at Brave Moms, we are going to walk with you and help you leave the weariness cycle behind. We are so for you, are praying for you and will fight with you.
The first step we want to encourage you to take is to believe that you are a good mom. When God created everything, He took a step back, surveyed all He had made and declared it good. That includes motherhood. Becoming a good mom is as simple as believing God and confessing His truth over your life. Say this with me “I am a good mom.” When you believe it and confess it (instead of the lies) then you will become it.
Your homework, for now, is to buy into the notion that you are a good mom. Say it to yourself when the lies try to creep in that you are not doing a good job, that you are overwhelmed, or can’t get it right. Take those thoughts captive and tell them the truth.
Stay with us for the next steps. There are lots of ways to connect with us for consistent encouragement. Look for the Brave Moms Podcast (coming soon), sign up for the email list to be notified of updates and Magazine releases, and follow us on social media.
