What is Meditations and Motherhood?
Meditations & Motherhood is a place for your soul to catch its breath and quietly reflect on The One who created you; offers grace when you need it most; provides uplifting writing in your most hopeless moments. Meditations & Motherhood offers community to moms who are experiencing struggles similarly and need a place where they can relate.
Why Meditations and Motherhood?
Being a mom is wonderful and exciting, but it is also an extremely difficult and often lonely job. You juggle many different hats while trying to stay sane through all the emotional and physical changes you experience. And sometimes you just want to rush to the end of the story to see how it all turns out.
I feel ya, sister.
Let’s slow down, enjoy, and make the most of this journey called Life together!
Meditations & Motherhood is a space that serves to provide personal insight into the joys and challenges of being a woman, mom, and sister in Christ using God’s word as the foundation for what we believe, how we think, and why we can have hope. My hope is that my writing will draw you closer to the heart of God.
Who is the writer behind Meditations and Motherhood?
I’m so happy to have you here, friend!
My name is Emily, a mom who shares her experiences: the good, the real, and the sometimes unpleasant. I am a wife to a sweet, handsome man named Jonathan. I am a mom to two sweet boys who are 21 months apart. Before I became a mom to my first son, I was a mom to Indiana (Indie) Bones, our 72-pound Goldendoodle. I am a daughter to two wonderful, full-of-love parents, a sister to a keep-me-laughing brother, and a grateful friend to many
Before making the decision to stay home with our son, I was an elementary and middle school reading and writing teacher for 11 years.
In the movie Chariots of Fire , the main character explains why he does what he does.
“I believe God made me for a purpose, but he also made me fast!
Eric Liddell
And when I run I feel his pleasure.”
I am no longer a runner (knees don’t allow for it), but I believe God placed me on this earth for a purpose, and he gave me the gift of writing. And when I write, I feel his pleasure.
I believe God has great and incredible things he wants to do through each of us. I want to reflect on that and make that reflection practical for you. What does God have for me and for you, mama, in this difficult yet sweet season? Let’s continue drawing closer to the heart of God to find out!
I am a writer FOR you because my hope is that the words that have been gifted to me would provide comfort, inspiration, and encouragement as we travel on this journey of Life together.
Thank you for joining me! <3 Emily
