But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.
Ephesians 2: 4-5
From time to time we moms just need to know grace. Show yourself grace today - you can't be perfect (otherwise it wouldn't be by grace that you have been saved), and you won't be perfect. Show your husband grace today - love deepens when we see one another's faults and choose to love and serve in the light of them. Show your children grace today - forgive them without strings and help them put mistakes behind them (and you) once accounted for.
God shows us such abundant grace. We glorify God when we do the same for others, including ourselves!

His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 1 Peter 1:3
Welcome to Encouraging Words for Moms, a site created by a heart convicted to glorify God. As a mother of two toddler boys, I am constantly reminded, in the sweet conviction of the Holy Spirit, that I am powerless to "bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord" (Ephesians 6:4) apart from Him.
I Peter 1:-3-4 tells us that "His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness" (emphasis mine). Together let's encourage one another in Christ on this wonderful journey called motherhood by drinking deep from His Word!
