We were created to work and to rest, but sometimes it feels like our to-do list never ends. But we were not created to carry the burdens of "doing it all" or to indulge in copious amounts of "me time." So, when and how are we supposed to rest amidst the busyness of motherhood? In this episode, Laura and Emily get to the heart of self-care for mommas. While we do need practical things like sleep, food, and a shower, what our hearts most desperately need is the refreshing truth of the gospel. We weren't made to be limitless, so our limitations are actually a gift that draws us into the rest offered by Christ in every situation.
