Ep. 46- The Struggle with Mom Guilt

Can I make a confession? I hate the phrase "mom guilt"...mostly because I immediately feel guilty! This phrase "mom guilt" has gotten quite a bit of attention amongst my peers in the past few years. I really struggle with mom guilt and regret. I feel guilty about all the things I should be done that I am not with my kids and with my life! I feel guilty about feeling guilty! The thing is though, that if we are living like we are guilty, then we are living as though what Jesus did wasn't enough. It leaves our kids watching a mom who is essentially saying that Jesus wasn't enough for her in this area! I don't know about you but that stings beacuse it's true for me! It may be the heaviness that comes with raising kids, but for some reason, we seem to think that feeling guilty as a mom is ok and we sit in it and joke around about it like it is normal. Living in guilt is living in enemy territory. It's time to take it back and teach our kids how to live free and in the light of grace too! Memory verse for the week: "So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death." Romans 8:1-2 Printable and Coloring Page:
