Mother’s Day can hold so many complicated emotions when you’re a Hope Mom. A day intended for joyful celebration can often stir up feelings of emptiness and longing. This Mother’s Day, we asked women in our community how they would encourage a fellow sister whose heart feels broken and whose arms feel so empty. We’re so excited to bring you encouragement and hope from your fellow sisters and Hope Mama friends.
As you listen, we hope you will feel the embrace of your friends as they speak truth and encouragement to you. And beyond that, our deepest prayer is that you would feel the nearness of God. That you would know that He is near to the brokenhearted, that He hears you when you cry out to Him, and that, even if you feel so physically alone, you are never alone because Christ Jesus is with you. He goes before you and He loves you.
Happy Mother’s Day, sweet sisters. You are not alone.
