Motherhood is hard. One second, we think we're doing a good enough job and the next we feel like the worst mom on the planet.

Which is why we need the refreshing truth of the gospel to be repeated over and over, giving us hope in the everyday moments.

So, mama, whether you're sipping cold coffee or doing a sink full of dishes, we hope you'll find true, encouragement and laughter here.

This is the Risen Motherhood Podcast. Thanks for joining us.

Well, hey guys and welcome to another episode of Risen Motherhood. I of course have my sister-in-law Emily Jensen here with me.

Hey guys!

And let's see, today we've got a few housekeeping things.

Um, yeah. Well, we have another free printable, which is really exciting. So hopefully you guys got our last one.

Um, but this one is again by Give It Pretty. And it's a quote that applies to motherhood that Lauren, I have both liked for a long time by Elizabeth Elliott.

So I'm going to read it to you because it's kind of a mouthful.

Fuck a lot.

Okay.

This job has been given to me to do. Therefore, it is a gift. Therefore, it is a privilege. Therefore, it is an offering I may make to God.

Therefore, it is to be done gladly if it is to be done for him.

Here, not somewhere else, I may learn God's way in this job, not in some other God looks for faithfulness.

So anyways, it is really pretty. And we hope that you guys go download it.

Yes, definitely. Go download it and be encouraged just to remember what your job is for. And we just love those words by those affiliates. So we hope that you are blessed by them as well.

Speaking of, we are excited to be talking about joy today.

Yes.

And on the morning that we're talking about joy, our coffee maker after seven years of using every day was not working this morning.

So I got my test right off the bat this morning.

Oh, no, I would seriously just, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have coffee. Do you have a French press or anything that you could make it in?
