Mom's Strength

As a mom, you have to know how to multitask. From doing the groceries, organizing the household, and making sure kids are updated with their vaccine shots, you have to have a schedule. That's aside from the fact that you have to wake up at 6am every weekday to go to work, pump milk before leaving the house and still pump some more during breaks at the office. 

And don't you also have to prepare for big family events, like birthdays, Halloween and Christmas? Don't forget the vacations that you just have to take at least once a year, which of course you should book months ahead to get the best deal. You want to make sure you're saving some money for the "rainy days".

                                     

At the end of the day, we all get exhausted. Don't we? And as if it wasn't enough, our hubbies request that we cook their favorite meal for dinner. And yes, we still happily do it. That's after making sure all homeworks are done, bath and vitamins taken. We moms try our best to make all things possible but are not always successful of course. We fall, stumble and get back up as if everything has always been fine. How do we do it? I've always believed that a mother's endurance comes from LOVE. She has the love of her family and friends, and most especially because she is loved by her heavenly Father...the source of all strength. And yes, by the grace of God, she does it all so beautifully (most of the time).

2 Corinthians 12:9

New International Version (NIV)

⁹ But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
