I’ve been hit with a lot of lies lately. Lies in my head telling me that somewhere, something went wrong and I am in the wrong roles, the wrong places in life, that I am the wrong mother for these littles.
But today, I’m telling the lies they have no power here. Today I am choosing to believe that Jesus loves me and that He is the truth teller.
Today I choose to believe that everything I need can be found in Him. Today I remind myself that without Him I am nothing, but with Him I can do the hard things I’m called to do.
I believe this because Jesus tells me so.
He knew what kind of mom I would be on my very worst days—it’s never been a surprise to Him. He chose me anyway. He gave me my kids anyway.
Every mistake I’ve ever made and will ever make has been paid for already, they were paid for before I even came to be on this earth and long before I was called “Mama.” He knew where I would falter and where I would fail, and He created me and died for me anyway.
He knew.
But he knew more than just the ugly things.
He knew that with Him I can parent the kids He has entrusted me with. With Him, I can know that I am absolutely the best choice for their mom because He is the One Who gave them to me. With Him, I can teach and train and serve and love and live a life that pleases Him. With Him, I can be good and faithful and true.
I believe this.
The Most High chose ME as the mother of these beautiful children and no one is more equipped or capable of this task than I am.
Today I will walk in this truth and breath it in.
Jesus, the son of God who commands angel armies and Who can move mountains and control the seas, chose me.
This is what He tells me, and I believe Him.
Today I will stop with the lies, the excuses and the fear. Today I will be the mom I was chosen to be.
Today, I will choose to believe Jesus.
