Moms, in general, often feel alone. Imagine not having a partner, family, or a community to help. Today we hear Katie Cartner’s story about how she not only survived motherhood as a single mom, but found strength, community, and purpose beyond what she could have ever asked for or imagined.

SCRIPTURES:

Proverbs 15:25

“The Lord will tear down the house of the proud and arrogant (self-righteous),
But He will establish and protect the boundaries [of the land] of the [godly] widow.”

Psalm 68:5-6

“A father of the fatherless and a judge and protector of the widows,
Is God in His holy habitation.

God makes a home for the lonely;
 He leads the prisoners into prosperity,
 Only the stubborn and rebellious dwell in a parched land.”

James 1:27

Pure and unblemished religion [as it is expressed in outward acts] in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit and look after the fatherless and the widows in their distress, and to keep oneself uncontaminated by the [secular] world.

Proverbs 31:17

“She equips herself with strength [spiritual, mental, and physical fitness for her God-given task]
 And makes her arms strong.”

Proverbs 31:25
 “Strength and dignity are her clothing and her position is strong and secure;
And she smiles at the future [knowing that she and her family are prepared].”
