When we feel hidden by the mundane demands of motherhood, we find hope in remembering The God Who Sees us.

Even in the inconveniences of life, we can trust that God’s hand of protection and goodness is always working—both in seen and unseen ways.

We can hang up our capes and stop striving after supermom status because the Lord calls and equips us to simply be faithful—in the good days, the failures, and everything in between.

When motherhood doesn’t satisfy the restless longings of our heart, we’re reminded that our true purpose isn’t in a role, but in a Person—Christ himself.

God sees and values the hidden work we do as moms, even when others don’t or the fruit seems a long time coming.

Even in the mundane tasks of cleaning and maintaining our homes, we can image God in his work of bringing order and beauty to the world.

In the unseen, ordinary work of motherhood, we can remember that God values and rewards our faithful service.

We often desire to be seen and noticed, but when we’re hidden from others we may find the blessing of seeing the Lord more clearly.

What is our motivation when we pursue good works in motherhood? May we always be willing to practice righteousness for our Father who sees in secret.

We often grow weary of little progress and little thanks as we care for little people. The Risen Motherhood book shows us how God uses all moments of motherhood, big and small, in his grand plan of redemption as he transforms our hearts, little by little.

Christ didn’t suffer on the cross so we could just survive motherhood. Rather, he defeated death so we could live as righteous ones. As we choose to serve our families with joy and out of love for God, we are transformed by grace into Christ-likeness—yes, through car pick up lines, nighttime wake ups, and toothpaste spills.

Motherhood is hard, which is why we need a perspective shift for our work in the trenches.
