Introduction: Welcome to the Crumbs

 Dear Mama,


If you’re reading this blog, there’s a good chance you’re exhausted—physically, emotionally, maybe even spiritually. You may be surrounded by toys, dishes, diapers, and a million questions like “What’s for dinner?” or “Where are my shoes?” You may feel like the world has forgotten you somewhere between nap schedules and meal prep. Maybe you’ve even started to forget yourself.


I’ve been there.


This devotional was born from the middle of my mess—from the days I cried in the bathroom, whispered prayers into the silence, and begged God to remind me I wasn’t invisible. It came from the moments when all I had to offer Him were crumbs: a few hurried prayers, tired faith, and hands that never seemed to stop working. But here’s the beautiful truth: God met me there. Not after I had it all together. Not when I felt strong or holy or enough. Right there in the crumbs—He met me, healed me, and started putting me back together.


And He wants to meet you there too.


This blog devotional isn’t about doing more or being more. It’s not about being the “perfect” Christian mom. It’s about honesty. It’s about raw faith. It’s about finding grace when you feel empty and strength when you’re at the end of yourself. It’s about rediscovering the God who sees you, knows you, and delights in you—even in the chaos.


Each day, you’ll find a short reading, a scripture to anchor your heart, a prayer to help you breathe, and a journal prompt to go deeper. There’s no pressure to “keep up”—just an invitation to sit with Jesus, even for five quiet minutes while the kids nap or play.


Because, Mama, the crumbs are enough when they’re offered to a God who multiplies. And so are you.


With love,

Brittany

Day 1: The Crumbs are Enough

  Anchor Scripture “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”  – Matthew 15:27 (ESV) Devotional Thought There are moments when you feel like you have nothing to offer—when the endless laundry, broken dishes, and constant little demands weigh you down and make you feel invisible. In these moments, it can seem as though God only offers you the “crumbs” of His attention and care. But let me share a secret: those crumbs, as small as they seem, are filled with His enormous love and grace. God meets you in the midst of your messy, imperfect world. Even when you feel broken, tired, and overwhelmed, His grace is sprinkled upon you, inviting you to trust Him with every little piece of your heart. Remember, you are not defined by your schedule, the challenges of the day, or your exhaustion. You are seen by God. He knows every tear, every whispered prayer in the quiet moments, and every ounce of strength it takes just to keep going. Today, let the ...

Day 4: Grace in the small things

  Day 4: Grace in the Small Things Scripture: “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.” — Zechariah 4:10 (NLT) Devotional: It’s easy to miss the beauty in the mundane. The sticky fingerprints on the window, the same toy picked up for the tenth time, the endless loop of snacks, spills, and bedtime routines—none of it feels grand or noteworthy. But motherhood isn’t about the big moments alone. It’s in the crumbs under the highchair, the mismatched socks, the whispered “I love you” at the end of a long day. God doesn’t overlook the small things. In fact, He delights in them. The world may not applaud diaper changes or middle-of-the-night rocking, but heaven sees. Every little act of love is a seed planted in your child’s heart. Every sacrifice, every sigh, every smile—He gathers it all. When Jesus broke bread and gave thanks, it was just five loaves and two fish. Small in the world’s eyes, but more than enough in the hands of a God who multi...
