Welcome back, mamas, or welcome to any new mamas we may have listening to us today, you guys, I have a topic today that has just been on my heart today. And so I decided to do this. It actually kind of came from a devotional that I started, and I hope you join us for that devotional. It is called 100 days of less hustle, more. Jesus. I have a Facebook group check the notes, check the description. You'll see a link. You can join us there. We're doing it twice a week. and I was inspired by you know, I always start with a quote. So today's quote is actually going to be a Bible verse. from our study. So it it is. Second Corinthians, chapter 12, verse 9, and it says, but he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness. And you guys, this week I want to talk about support and a support system and you know, asking for support, asking for help, asking for what you need, and a lot of times as moms as multitaskers as if you're anything like me. Type, a control, you know, like to do everything myself and not like to look weak right like a lot of times. We feel like it makes us look weak or appear week if we ask for help, if we have to ask for help, and we do not like asking others for help. And so I am here to help like debunk this myth. That asking for help is weakness. I actually believe that it is power and just you know my grace is sufficient of for you, for power is perfected, and weakness. Sometimes, you know, when we ask for what it is that we need. And then and you know in this in this verse it's actually talking about relying on God right and his power, because his power is actually perfected in in our weakness, right like he can get stronger, and we know he is there. We feel his presence. We're able to tap into that when we be when we become vulnerable. and when we just surrender to Him, and he then gives us the strength and the power that we need. But it's also true in life, because when? you know in in any relationship, because when, if you think about it, when you are in a relationship and someone asks you for help. how does that make you feel right? It makes you feel like, oh, I would love to help them right, like most of the time we are, if we can, willing and able and actually fulfilled by helping others right like we are made stronger when we are helping like it actually fuels us. I don't know if you've ever you know, volunteered at, you know. Let's just say a charity, whether it be like a soup, kitchen type thing, or homeless shelter, or you know, whatever the case might be. But a lot of times in those situations like you are volunteering to help. But then you wind up getting so much from it that you are stronger for having done that right like it actually helped you. It didn't just help the other person or the group, or whoever you were serving right?
