Mark 16:1 – “When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so they might go to anoint Jesus’ body.”
You’re doing so much.
Rising early with tired eyes. Making meals. Wiping tears. Correcting little hearts. Wondering if it’s enough, if you’re enough. And sometimes, like those women walking to Jesus’ tomb, you don’t even know how you’ll get through the day—let alone move the heavy things in front of you.
Maybe it’s the stone of exhaustion.
The weight of anxiety.
The burden of doing it all.
And just like them, you might be thinking, “Who will roll the stone away for me?”
You’re Not Called to Move the Stone—Just to Show Up
Those faithful women didn’t have a solution. They simply got up, gathered what they had, and went. They showed up in love. In obedience. In faith.
And when they arrived?
The stone was already rolled away.
Mama, you don’t have to figure it all out. You’re not expected to carry the impossible. Your job is to show up—in the chaos, in the exhaustion, in the “not enough”—and trust that Jesus has already gone before you.
He Does What You Can’t
You can’t change hearts—but He can.
You can’t fix everything—but He’s the healer.
You can’t hold it all together—but He holds you.
Whatever you’re facing today—whether it’s a strong-willed child, a season of burnout, mom guilt that won’t let go, or just the overwhelming weight of all the small things—know this:
Jesus sees you. He goes before you. He is moving the stone.
💬 A Reminder for Your Mama Heart:
You are not alone in this calling.
Your faithfulness matters.
Your presence in your home has power.
And your Savior is still in the business of resurrection and miracles.
He will do what you cannot.
He will move what you cannot.
And He will meet you right there—in the middle of your motherhood.
📝 Pause & Reflect:
- What feels like a “stone” in your season of motherhood right now?
- Where do you need to trust Jesus to do what you can’t?
- How can you show up faithfully—even if you don’t feel strong?
🙏 A Prayer for the Weary Mom:
Jesus, there are so many things I don’t know how to handle. So many weights I feel unqualified to carry. But You go before me. You see what I can’t. You move what I can’t. Help me be faithful today—right here in my motherhood—and trust that You are working, even when I can’t see it. In Your Name Jesus I pray, Amen.
📖 Key Verse to Hold Close:
“Looking up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away.” — Mark 16:4
With Love and Encouragement,
Eve
This is a beautiful reminder of faith and perseverance in the face of challenges. It’s inspiring to see how the women in the text acted with love and trust, even without all the answers. Motherhood is indeed a journey filled with uncertainties, but knowing that Jesus understands and guides us brings comfort. The prayer at the end is so heartfelt and relatable. How can we practice this kind of unwavering faith in our daily lives?
Thank you for your comment. Yes, I agree motherhood is indeed a journey filled with uncertainties and Yes again, Jesus makes the difference. He gives us comfort, hope, security and as David said – because the Lord is my Shepherd, I have everything I need.
To answer your question, I believe, practicing unwavering faith in our lives means consistently choosing to trust God—especially when things are uncertain, difficult, or slow to change. It’s not about never doubting, but about returning to trust even in the midst of fear or questions. Keep spending time with God’s Word, it’s alive and our faith comes by hearing and hearing God’s Word. Spend time with Him through prayer and speak life and spend time with people that also have faith so it will encourage your faith even more. I hope that helps.
I will be writing more about topic in few days. Be encouraged!

Jesus is a Powerful God so He can do anything for with God nothing is impossible. I love that even though He is God, He came as a man to be like us and to save us and knowing that He rose from the dead makes a difference because it gave us hope of eternal life.
