Motherhood Articles

Women tend to do things with their whole heart. We tend not to merely dip our toes in the water. It’s common to be ‘all or nothing’. We either do a thing and pursue it with a strength of conviction that will carry us through dark stormy days. Or we don’t. Unfortunately for our health we tend not to spend a lot of time on how we can support our bodies; these temples of the Holy Spirit that the Lord has entrusted to our care. As a result we are depriving the Church of our ability to live out our mission, something the Church desperately needs.

What we too often forget is:
Women are important.
Mothers are important.
Homemakers are important.

If we truly believe this, then we must believe that the rituals that sustain them are also important.

God in His infinite wisdom, and to our wonder, created seasons. Are our daily lives so different?

Popular questions regarding children include, “how many children do you want?” Or “Do you plan on waiting to have kids?” Or “Do you want kids?

This manner of thinking subconsciously programs us into the faulty belief that we are entitled to children. We are entitled to the parenthood journey we desire. We get to pick and choose what we want and when we want, as if we were grocery shopping.
