It's not easy being a homeschool mom. Lesson preparation, teaching, counseling, and discipline can become a daily grind. Homeschool mothers take this responsibility seriously—often, to the point of growing weary. Three words sum up a homeschool mom: committed, dedicated, and hardworking.
The homeschooling mom senses increasing pressures from society for her child to be the next winner of the National Spelling Bee or maintain test scores in the ninetieth percentile. She often feels she doesn't measure up to other homeschooling moms when she compares their curriculum, methods, scheduling, discipline, and ministry with her own. But the biggest burden is to daily live out her Christian faith before an ever-present audience—her children.
These devotionals are for the tired mom who needs a reminder that God is the true source of strength. Every devotional is filled with anecdotes that illustrate the scripture passage for the day and provide added encouragement for the homeschool mom.
