hey
Being a mom is hard.

· Living in a constant state of contradiction.
· It messes with your sense of self.
· It makes you feel inadequate.

Mental Health = Emotional well-being | Psychological well-being | Social well-being
1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 - May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.


Two Myths of Mental Health:


Myth #1 – Christians shouldn’t struggle with mental health.
Myth #2 – God doesn’t care about your mental health.
Psalm 88:3-5,13-14, 18 - 3 I am overwhelmed with troubles and my life draws near to death. 4 I am counted among those who go down to the pit; I am like one without strength. 5 I am set apart with the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more, who are cut off from your care…13 But I cry to you for help, . 14 Why, Lord, do you reject me and hide your face from me? … 18You have taken from me friend and neighbor—darkness is my closest friend.


What do we know about Heman (the author of Psalm 88)
· Great wisdom (1 Kings 4:31)
· Musical ability (1 Chron 6:33, 16:41-42)
· Committed parenting (1 Chron 25:5-6)
· Service to king (1 Chron 25:6)


God is not afraid of your honesty!


Getting help isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of wisdom.
Matthew 22:37 - Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’


Isaiah 26:3 - You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!


Samak (sawmak)—to prop, to rest your full weight on an object.


2 Peter 1:3 -His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him.
God is my source and my strength.
I have everything I need to do everything he called me to do.


1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 - May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

GIVE US ONE YEAR OF YOUR LIFE.

1 PETER 1:17 // MSG

You call out to God for help and He helps - He’s a good Father that way. But don’t forget, He’s also a responsible Father and won’t let you get by with sloppy living. Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God.
