Give yourself grace, too.
It can be easy to pour so much into- caring for others, our job, our future, our to do list, our mistakes- that we forget to care for ourselves now. We keep going, carry the weight of our responsibilities, and sometimes feel guilty for taking a moment to breathe.
But your mental health matters, too.
Give yourself Grace- permission to slow down. Take a little time for yourself. Find something that helps you breathe a little deeper, quiet the noise, and feel refreshed. Give yourself the same patience and compassion you so freely offer others.
Needing rest or support doesnāt mean youāre failing. You donāt have to have it all together to be worthy of care.
āMy grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.ā ā 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)
Godās grace meets us in the hard places, too. And sometimes, part of caring for ourselves is allowing others to come alongside us, asking for help, and making space for our own needs.
This World Mental Health Day, let this be your reminder: You matter. Your mental health matters. And you deserve care, compassion, and grace, too.
At Lighthouse Acres Ministries, we believe every mom, every person, deserves to be cared for ā not just for all she does for others, or what sheās done in the past, but for who she is.
