Leaving A Legacy’s Mother’s Day Giveaway!
On a Spring day when the sky is bright blue and the clouds sprinkle the heavens, I love to turn my gaze upward. The clouds seem so peaceful as they float from one place to the next. That’s the way it is with our identities. When we find our identity in the only thing that matters there is unmeasurable peace. The identity that I am talking about rests in Christ alone.
If I falter and seek my identity in things of the world, the clouds are no longer serene. They turn from pure white, to a gray, tumultuous storm. Choosing to keep my identify in Christ keeps me calm. It gives my life purpose. It creates harmony instead of chaos.
My identity in the Savior can be described in many words, Christian, wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, writer and cancer survivor…..the list goes on and on. My favorite word that paints a picture of my identity is Mom. Motherhood is one of the highest callings a woman can have. It’s a humbling honor to have it be intertwined with my identity with the King. Being called Mommy, by my precious children below, makes my life that more sweeter and richer, as I follow Christ alone.

In Christ alone.. agreed. Happy Mother’s Day!
Such Beautiful sentiments. I love those words, In Christ Alone. One of my favorite songs is of that title. “In Christ Alone I place my trust and find my glory in the power of the cross, In every victory let it be said of me, my source of strength, my source of hope is Christ alone.” Words and music by Andrew Shawn Craig and Donald A. Koch © Paragon Music Corp. Available through The Acapella Company.
Well said, Shari, and Happy Mother’s Day.
