Your motherhood probably looks completely different than mine. But I bet we have one thing in common if you're a mother too. I bet you have days where you feel really down in the dumps about how good of a mother you are, or you FEEL you are, that day. It happens to me, and I bet it happens to you. So today I'm sharing my go-to talk when the cloud of comparison starts to creep into my calling as a mother. Whenever I feel like I'm not measuring up to whatever standard I think others may have for me as a mother, whenever I catch myself thinking I'm not doing a good job because someone's doing it better, these are the things I do to help get my mindset back on track and my vision clear and really see motherhood the way I believe God would have me see.
