Praying Through it All: Encouraging words about motherhood, faith, and relationships (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218552145)

"I know God hears me as I pace the kitchen at 3:00 in the morning, my newborn son nestled against my chest in the stretchy knit of a baby wrap. It's become our new routine, me groggy from a few weeks that have felt like one never-ending day, and my Heavenly Father forever faithful and encouraging.

I feel His presence wrap around me like the sling in which my sweet baby has found peace. It's not lost on me that like this baby so desperately needs to be settled down after a period of fussing and crying, I so desperately need these late night hours with God to be soothed by the one who loves me unconditionally.

As baby and I circle the kitchen island for the seventeenth time, He's here. He's with me while I silently exclaim my simultaneous gratitude, exhaustion, praise, and worry. I know He hears me while I mumble worship songs as lullabies, hushed so as not to wake the rest of the house.

He settles me down and walks me around, hushing and swaying in a soothing rhythm. He's reminding me that though sleeplessness is circumstantial, His faithfulness is forever. And in hearing Him, we walk on."

From Her View From Home and Motherly contributor Brianna Baranowski, is a collection of essays about motherhood, faith, and relationships.

Praying Through it All is an authentic read that will relate to new and veteran mothers alike. Readers will laugh at the brutal honesty, be encouraged by moments of big faith, and cry at the tenderness of becoming entirely transformed by parenting.

With titles like "A Bath Bomb Ain't Gonna Cut It," "Hostess Without the Mostest," and "Architect of my Life," there's something for every hill and valley along the beautiful journey of motherhood.
