Find biblical joy during hard seasons of motherhood with the Joy In The Journey 40-day Devotional

Episode 267 // I love my kids. I love my husband. I love my family. But let’s be real… I also love some “me time” when I’m able to get it.

Lots of moms feel guilty about wanting, needing, or enjoying some alone time. Yet, Jesus himself sometimes got away from other people in order to be alone! To pray, reflect, sleep, and rest.

When moms can get some “me time” and use it rightly, it will fill you up! It will encourage and rejuvenate you for continuing to pour out and love your people well.

Today, let’s look at the value of “me time” along with some reality checks and realistic ideas for how we should use that time. How do we make it valuable? I’ll share some overall principles along with some everyday tips that help me and the women I work with in counseling.

Join me, friend! Let’s dive in.

hugs & blessings,

Jess
