When Nothing’s Really Wrong… But Everything Feels Heavy…
I just need to be real for a minute. Today has just felt heavy. I know we all try to keep it together and keep showing up, but honestly… I’m tired. Emotionally, mentally, spiritually, it’s just been one of those days where everything feels off, and I can’t quite shake it. I don’t need to fix it, and I don’t need anyone to fix me. I just wanted to say it out loud, that even the strongest mamas have days where the weight of it all hits hard. 😮💨 There are days where nothing’s technically wrong..life’s steady, the kids are fine, your husband’s supportive, and yet something inside just feels off. Your patience is thin, your emotions feel all over the place, and even the smallest things can set you off. It’s like your hormones are playing games with your peace. One minute you’re holding it together, and the next you’re crying over a dirty windshield or feeling guilty for wanting space you can’t even explain.😵💫 And maybe your husband tries to comfort you, gives you a pep talk, reminds you it’ll pass, and you truly appreciate it. For a moment, it brings peace… but deep down, you still feel like something’s missing. Not from him, but within you. Like your spirit’s just tired…. I think we need to talk about that more, those in-between days where you love your life and your people, but your heart still feels heavy. The days where you don’t need fixing, you just need understanding and the stillness only Jesus can give you. 🙏🏼 If you’re feeling that today, you’re not alone. You’re NOT ungrateful or broken, you’re human. You’re a mama carrying more than anyone sees, and it’s okay to not feel okay in moments. Even here, in the fog and frustration, God is near. He’s not asking us to “snap out of it.” He’s sitting with us in it and reminding us, “You’re still Mine. You’re still enough.” 🌺 Lord, steady our emotions when they swing, and calm our hearts when we can’t explain the heaviness. Thank You for seeing us, even when we don’t understand ourselves. Amen. Rooted in love,
