Parenting
When you are trying your best and it never feels like enough.
A thought for today
You will not get every moment right, and your children do not need you to be perfect — they need you to keep showing up. God is at work in what you cannot see, and he loves them even more than you do.
A prayer for today
God, guide me as a parent. Give me patience and cover what I get wrong.
I am enough for this, with God beside me.
Say it out loud, then say it again
