Fully Known and Deeply Loved: A Psalm 139 Reminder for Us Moms

You are currently viewing Fully Known and Deeply Loved: A Psalm 139 Reminder for Us Moms

Motherhood is beautiful, but let’s be honest—it’s also messy, exhausting, and at times isolating. In the middle of laundry piles, lunchboxes, sleepless nights, and countless questions, it’s easy to lose sight of who you are.

Psalm 139 is a love letter from God to remind you: You are fully known, always seen, and deeply loved.

God Sees You, Even When No One Else Does

“O Lord, you have searched me and known me…”
(Psalm 139:1)

God sees the things no one else sees. The midnight rocking. The whispered prayers over a fevered child. The tears behind a locked bathroom door or bedroom door. The heart that wonders if it’s doing enough.

He knows your thoughts when you’re overwhelmed, your fears when you’re unsure, and your love when you feel like you’re running on empty. You don’t have to explain yourself to Him—He already knows, and He cares.

You Are Never Alone in This Journey

“Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?”
(Psalm 139:7)

From the school drop-off line to the grocery store to the quiet moments after the kids fall asleep—God is with you. Even when the house is loud and your heart is tired, His presence surrounds you.

You may feel invisible sometimes, but you’re not. You are doing holy work. And God is right there with you in it.

You Were Made for This—On Purpose

“You knit me together in my mother’s womb… I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
(Psalm 139:13–14)

Before you were a mama, before the sleepless nights and goldfish crackers under the couch, God designed you with intention. Your gifts, your personality, your quirks—He handcrafted you with purpose. And He knew you’d be the exact mom your children need.

You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be faithful, and trust that He who made you will guide you.

Let Him Search Your Heart, Not the World

“Search me, O God, and know my heart…”
(Psalm 139:23)

It’s so easy to measure ourselves against Instagram moms or Pinterest perfection. But David’s prayer in Psalm 139 reminds us to invite God, not the world, to shape our identity.

Ask Him to lead your heart, speak to your spirit, and remind you who you are:
His daughter. His masterpiece. A mom with eternal impact.


Dear Mama, Remember This

You are not just “someone’s mom.”
You are a woman created by God, sustained by His grace, and doing work that echoes into eternity.

You are fully known. You are never alone. You are wonderfully made. And you are always, always loved.

A Short Prayer for Moms

Lord Jesus,
Thank You for seeing me, knowing me, and loving me—just as I am.
When I feel invisible, remind me that You are close.
When I feel overwhelmed, fill me with Your peace.
Help me trust that You made me for this season of motherhood.
Guide my heart, strengthen my spirit, and let me rest in Your presence today.
In Your Name Jesus I pray, Amen.

With Love and Encouragement,

Eve
