Sanctuary Amidst Chaos: Why Working Career Moms Need God's Presence

In the hustle and bustle of balancing career demands with family responsibilities, it's easy for working career moms to feel overwhelmed and drained. However, amidst the chaos, carving out time to be in the presence of God can bring profound benefits that extend far beyond the immediate moment.

Let's delve into Psalms 84:3 and explore three compelling reasons why prioritizing spiritual connection is essential for working career moms:

1. Renewed Strength and Guidance: Psalms 84:3 beautifully depicts the sanctuary as a place where even the sparrow finds a home and the swallow a nest for herself. Just as these creatures find refuge and sustenance in God's presence, so too can working career moms find renewal for their weary souls. Amidst the challenges of juggling multiple responsibilities, spending time with God offers a sanctuary where they can draw strength, rest,  gain perspective, and receive divine guidance to navigate life's complexities.
2. Inner Peace and Emotional Stability: The presence of God is a sanctuary of peace amidst life's storms and difficulties. As stated in Psalms 84:4, "Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; and Your presence they are ever praising you." When working career moms intentionally set aside time to commune with God, and flow in praise and worship they open themselves up to experience His peace that surpasses all understanding. In the midst of deadlines, meetings, and family obligations, the unexpected, this inner peace serves as an anchor, enabling them to face challenges with strength, grace, and resilience.
3. Alignment of Priorities and Values: In the frenzy of career advancement and parental responsibilities, it's easy for working career moms to lose sight of their true priorities and values. Psalms 84:3 reminds us that even the humblest creatures find their place in God's presence. Likewise, when working career moms intentionally prioritize spending time with God, we realign our hearts with what truly matters. This alignment empowers us to make decisions that are rooted in faith, integrity, and love, leading to a more fulfilling, balanced, and purpose-driven life.

In conclusion, while the demands of career and motherhood may seem all-consuming sometimes it's crucial for working career moms to prioritize time in the presence of God.

Through spiritual connection, they can find renewed strength, inner peace, and alignment with their deepest values. As they cultivate this sacred, and precious practice, they not only enrich their own lives but also become beacons of light and inspiration to all of  those around them.
