3 Takeaways

1. Anxiety in motherhood is not a flaw but a signal—an invitation to draw near to God. When we reframe anxiety as a call to communion with Christ rather than something to avoid or fix ourselves, we shift from fear to faith.
2. Journaling is a powerful spiritual tool that helps mothers process truth, hear from God, and retain His promises. Whether using prompts like SOAP or simply pouring out your heart, journaling slows the mind and centers the spirit on what is eternal.
3. Quiet time is not limited to solitude or silence. Whether with a 4-year-old by your side or in the midst of chores, building rhythms of Scripture, prayer, and worship—even in simple ways—can bring peace into the chaos of motherhood.
