39 | Mom Guilt Is Crushing Me: How to Find God’s Grace While Raising Your Autistic or Medically Complex Child

Do you replay the “what-ifs” in your mind and carry guilt as a mom?

How can stepping back and taking time for yourself be sacred, not selfish?

What does it look like to let God transform your past mistakes and regrets into grace?

If you’ve ever laid awake replaying the what-ifs, this episode is for you. Mom guilt hits different when you’re raising an autistic or medically complex child. It can feel spiritual… like you should’ve known, should’ve done more, should’ve been stronger. But God doesn’t use guilt to punish you. He uses it to guide you back into grace.

In this episode, we talk about how to release the guilt you’ve been carrying and step into the compassion, rest, and renewal God has already prepared for you.

In this episode, we explore: • The difference between guilt, shame, and Holy Spirit conviction • Why Jesus regularly stepped away and why your rest is not selfish • How God redeems your past choices with compassion, not condemnation • Practical ways to shift from guilt into grace • Scriptures that prove God sees your heart, not your mistakes

Key Scriptures: Romans 8:1 Luke 5:16 Psalm 103:13–14 Romans 8:28 Isaiah 43:18–19 Luke 8:48
