Summer is here—and if you’re a Christian mom, it might bring a mix of joy, overwhelm, guilt, and big expectations. In this episode, we talk honestly about the struggles that come with summertime: lack of routine, mom guilt, spiritual dryness, and the pressure to “make it magical.”
But instead of hustling harder, what if we invited God into the messy middle of summer?
Join me for an encouraging episode and a peaceful prayer for your summer—one you can return to anytime your soul needs rest.
✨ In This Episode:
•Why summer can feel spiritually and emotionally heavy for Christian moms
•A mindset shift: from “perfect” to “present”
•Encouragement from Psalm 16:11
•A calming, heartfelt prayer to carry into the season
📖 Scripture Mentioned:
“You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
—Psalm 16:11 (ESV)
🙏 Prayer
Lord Jesus,
Thank You for the gift of this new season. Summer brings beauty, but also busyness, and I confess—I sometimes feel overwhelmed before it even starts.
I invite You into our home, our rhythms, our routines. Let this be a summer not marked by how much we do—but by how much we lean on You.
When the days feel long, give me grace. When I mess up, give me mercy. When I’m tired, give me rest—not just for my body, but for my soul.
Help me see my children the way You do—through your lense, God, To love them . Help me let go of comparison and step into contentment.
Most of all, remind me that joy isn’t found in a perfect day—but in Your perfect presence.
Walk with me, Jesus. Make this a summer of peace, play, and deep, quiet trust in You.
In Your Name I pray, Amen.
