Encouragement, Scriptures, and a Real Conversation for Christian Moms
Happy Mother’s Day, Sweet Friend,
This week, I sat down with my mom, Lily Dolan, to talk about what every Christian Mom needs to hear this Mother’s Day. And wow, this conversation was real, raw, and full of God’s love.
This one’s for you—whether you’re in the thick of diapers and dishes, navigating teenage emotions, praying for a prodigal, or healing from your own mother wounds
We talked about:
- What to do when you feel like you’re failing as a Christian mom
- Prayers my mom prayed over me—and how God answered them years later
- How to keep your faith strong when motherhood feels lonely or overwhelming
- What purpose looks like for Christian moms as they age
- What I’d say to my younger self at the start of my faith and fitness journey
If you’ve been searching for biblical encouragement for Christian moms, or you’ve been Googling “Mother’s Day Scriptures for Christian Moms,” you’re in the right place.
8 Powerful Scriptures for Christian Moms on Mother’s Day
I want you to take these verses to heart. Write them on sticky notes, save them in your phone, speak them out loud. These are reminders that God sees you and is with you, Dear Christian Mom!
Proverbs 31:25
“She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.”
You don’t have to fear the future. You’re walking with the One who holds it.
Isaiah 40:11
“He gently leads those that have young.”
God isn’t demanding perfection—He’s gently guiding you.
Psalm 127:3
“Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.”
Motherhood is not only hard work—it’s holy work.
Isaiah 66:13
“As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you…”
When you need comfort, run to the One who created it.
Luke 1:45
“Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her!”
If you’re believing God for your family, hold tight to this promise.
Galatians 6:9
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”
The seeds you’re planting matter—even if the harvest hasn’t come yet.

“On the day I called, You answered me; You made me bold with strength in my soul.”
God hears your prayers. He answers with strength.
