God is ultimately doing good for me. He's ultimately doing good for our family. But I'm seeing it through the lens of

this is hard, this is uncomfortable, I don't like this, I don't want to go in this direction.

So I'm fighting it. I'm pouting about it. I'm having a bad attitude. God is saying,

if you'll just shift your attitude, this will be so much more pleasant for you, so much more

pleasant for your family. And it was just kind of an aha moment for me. That's Kristen Roos,

describing a very common challenge that many moms face, especially in those early years of parenting.

Now, maybe you're experiencing something like that right now, or you know a mom who's

struggling. If so, stick with us for today's focus on the family with Jim Daly. We have a lot of

encouragement from women who've been there and done that. And I'm John Fuller and we're glad you've

joined us. John, we had a great conversation last time with our panel of moms, Kristen Roosh,

Ashley Duran, and our colleague,

Dr. Jenny Coffey, who's a member of our counseling team. We covered a lot of ground, the chaos

of motherhood, child meltdowns, the illusion of control, and how perfect families, perfect kids,

and perfect moms are all impossible. It was really good stuff.
