Kingdom parents, Every year on May 31st, we celebrate the Everything Parent Award in honor of Frances Marie Williams. This is not just another post or something we scroll past. This is a movement. My grandmother, Frances Marie Williams, raised me. She was my everything. She did everything, even when it was hard, even when nobody saw it, even when she had every reason to give up. And when I look at this community, I see her in so many of you. Parents who are tired but still show up, healing while raising others, carrying a past and still pushing forward, parents who don’t have it easy but refuse to quit. So on May 31st, we honor that. We honor you. This is how we’re showing up. You wake up intentional. Not rushing, not overwhelmed, not pouring into everyone else first. You get dressed, do your hair, get your nails done, put on something that makes you feel good. You take yourself out, whether it’s to eat, to sit in peace, or just to enjoy your own presence. You take pictures, real ones, proud ones, the kind that say “I made it through some things.” I will be sending out certificates to every parent who signs up, because you deserve to be recognized. Then we show the world. You post your pictures, you tag the community, you send them to me, and I’m going to share them so the world can see what strength really looks like, what resilience looks like, what “everything” really looks like. We celebrate everything else in this world. Now it’s time to celebrate ourselves. If you’re joining this movement, drop your name below. This is your moment. Don’t sit this one out. Because May 31st belongs to the parents who never gave up. In honor of Frances Marie Williams, let’s show the world what “everything” really looks like.

Do you ever just look at your child like…🤨 “…did I create this?” “Did I do this??”“I must be the problem at this point…” 😭 No? …just me? 😂 But for real though… sometimes our kids will do something and you’re like: “Where did you even get that from??” And then God be like… 👀YOUUUUUU Let’s talk 😂 What’s something your child does that makes you question EVERYTHING?

Sometimes the hardest part of parenting isn’t the kids… it’s the relationship between the adults in the home. Let me ask you something honestly. Do you feel like your parenting is supported by your partner…or do you often feel like you’re parenting alone even though you’re not the only adult in the house? For example: • you set a boundary and the other parent undermines it • you try to discipline and the other parent makes you the “bad guy” • you try to talk about problems but the conversation gets turned back on you• you end up carrying the emotional weight of the home Many parents are raising children while also navigating very complicated relationships. You’re safe to be honest here. Do you feel supported in your parenting… or do you often feel like you're carrying it by yourself?

Father God, This morning we pause and remember that our identity is not rooted in our mistakes, our exhaustion, or the hard days of parenting. Before we were parents, we were Your children. Remind us today who You called us to be. Strengthen our confidence in the calling You placed on our lives. When doubt tries to creep in, remind us that You chose us to raise these children. Help us not to parent from fear, insecurity, or comparison. Teach us to trust You with our children, with our homes, and with the responsibility You have given us. Today we declare: We are not failing..... we are learning. We are not alone....God is guiding us. We are not inadequate....we are equipped for this calling. Strengthen us today as parents, leaders, and examples for our children. In Jesus’ name, Amen. If you're standing in this today, comment: “God chose me for this assignment.”

Maybe it's attitude. Maybe it's listening. Maybe it's screens. Maybe it's lying. Maybe it's anger. Drop it in the comments What’s the real struggle in your house right now?
