When Mother’s Day Is Hard

Mother’s Day is a beautiful concept: Let’s honor the women we admire! Let’s love up on our mothers and grandmothers and aunts and mother-figures and mama friends—yay, moms! Mother’s Day sounds so simple, but for many of us, it’s not. It’s… complicated. It’s a day all atangle with confusing feelings of disappointment, heartache, loneliness, loss, and even regret. 

Mother’s Day can be difficult for a

Elizabeth Laing Elizabeth Laing said: " I am loving this book! It is much more than a "ra-ra, do-big-things" book. It helps to inspire and equip you to identify your God-given gifts and dreams, and then to pursue them in a way that honors God's plan and will. It strengthens you to go throu ...more "

Quotes by Elizabeth Laing Thompson  (?)

“Every waiting season in my life has left its mark on me. I have memories, scars. And honestly? I don’t mind the scars anymore. They are part of me now; I wouldn’t recognize myself without them.”
Elizabeth Laing Thompson, When God Says "Wait": Navigating Life's Detours and Delays Without Losing Your Faith, Your Friends, or Your Mind

“We are not going to do the "does God test people" topic complete justice here because it's complicated, but a fair, brief summary would be this: Yes, God sometimes tests us (Deuteronomy 13:3, I Chronicles 29:17). But by God tests us, we don't mean He puts us through trials to see if we will fail (even secretly hoping we will fail). No, when God tests us, He is looking to find out what is in our hearts. He is looking to expose strength and weakness, to show us where we are and where we need to grow. His tests are not so much like a driver's license exam - you pass or fail - but like the diagnostic test a car manufacturer does on the cars themselves before releasing them into the world. The manufacturer needs to know if the vehicles are safe and ready for the road or if they need more work before they leave the factory.”
Elizabeth Laing Thompson, When God Says "Wait": Navigating Life's Detours and Delays Without Losing Your Faith, Your Friends, or Your Mind

“When God says, “Wait,” we can control only two things: how we wait, and who we become along the way.”
Elizabeth Laing Thompson, When God Says "Wait": Navigating Life's Detours and Delays Without Losing Your Faith, Your Friends, or Your Mind
