Today I celebrate Motherās Day with a grateful heart⦠but also with a heart that knows pain. šø
In 2003, I lost my son.
A pain no mother ever truly gets over.
There were moments I felt broken, confused, and emotionally tired. I smiled through tears, showed up while hurting, and kept pressing even when life felt heavy.
But one thing about God⦠He will meet you in your pain.
Somehow through the grief, He gave me strength.
Through the tears, He gave me purpose.
Through the heartbreak, He reminded me I still had life to live and people to help.
People see the smiles, the hats, the fashion, the pictures, the businesses, the ministry, and the joy⦠but they donāt always see the journey behind it all.
Every picture in this collage represents a woman who refused to give up.
A woman who learned how to dance through pain and still walk in purpose.
So today, I honor not only mothersā¦
but grieving mothers, strong mothers, healing mothers, praying mothers, and mothers still trying to find themselves again after loss.
If today is hard for you, know this:
Your pain is real, but so is your purpose.
Your grief matters, but grief doesnāt win.
Happy Motherās Day from a mother who kept pressing her way through. šāØ
