So, If Balance Doesn’t Exist What Do We Have?

August 8, 2019 · In: Podcast

We know that balance doesn’t exist – it’s nearly impossible to keep the scales perfectly even when our lives are moving as fast as they are.

We, as moms, are juggling so much and making so many decisions that we may have overflow from one category in our lives to another.

There are 4 phases or spaces that we as moms can be if we’re not in 100% balance and when balance doesn’t exist for us:

Harmony – things can be in harmony where we work things together and one area of our lives might take precedence, but the others can fall a little and be picked back up later.

Philippians 4:11

Grace/Forgiveness – we have to constantly give ourselves grace and forgiveness as we’re not in perfect balance.

John 5:30

Overwhelm and Craziness – it’s normal to have anxiety and be burdened, but Christ says to bring it and come to him in these times.

1 Peter 5:7 and Matthew 11:28-29

Long View/Seasons – make sure to always be looking at the long view – the season you are in is just a short moment of your entire motherhood journey.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Let me know what phase you are currently in! Send me a message or DM me and share!
