You may feel like a failure today, but failing is learning. Learning is powerful! So, failure is powerful. Your inadequacy as a mother is all you need to allow God to bring you into new territory and to grow you as a person!
"The translation of doulos by 'servant' rather than 'slave' [led] to the total effacement of its ancient significance (1965: 319). This ennobling title means the believer belongs to the Lord, who constantly "gives Himself away" in infinite love, through faith. Indeed, the doulos (slave) of Christ is His very Bride (cf.

Many moons ago, as a freshman in college, I walked along a lonely path from the science hall back to my dorm. Ahead of me on the path was a friendly looking student crunching his way through the leaves. All about making friends, I quickened my step till we were walking side by side. "Hi!" …
Today, as I listened to the melancholy song "Say Something I'm Giving Up On You" as I folded laundry....(not thinking of anyone in particular...just it was playing on apple music...) I got those weird melancholy feelings that music gives you, even when you have no reason to be melancholy. It gave me a very real …
When I was in high school, I used to lay on my bed and talk to my mom about everything I wanted to do with my life. I didn't want to be "just" anything, especially a mom. Moms really seem to be at the bottom of the totem-pole, at least they did in my teenage …
