Dear Mom,
If you are parenting on your own, allow me to encourage you today through the single mother Hagar, in the Bible. She was used, mistreated and thrown away; probably exactly how you feel. Hagar only had God, and no doubt, sobbed her sorrows out to Him; likely, daily. Sweet mom, are in a similar wilderness experience and need this encouragement today? God sees your plight and offers you the same love and protection He gave to Hagar. God is right where you are and will never let you down. Trust in Him today.
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me. (Psalm 138:7, NIV)
