What Makes My Kids Cry Today

Real Life. Real Laughs. Real Jesus.

1 Corinthians 10:31 Devotional

📖 “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” — 1 Corinthians 10:31 (KJV)

💭 Reflection

You wiped a nose.

You refilled the snack bowl—again.

You reset the room that got destroyed five minutes after you cleaned it.

You whispered “be gentle” 37 times before breakfast.

And maybe you wondered if any of it mattered.

But here’s the sacred truth tucked into your ordinary day:

This is holy work.

1 Corinthians 10:31 reminds us that whatever we do—even the unnoticed, unglamorous things—can bring glory to God.

The kingdom of God isn’t just built in pulpits or podcasts.

It’s built in living rooms.

In laundry piles.

In the thousand small acts of love that no one applauds—but heaven notices.

Wiping tears? Worship.

Packing lunches? Praise.

Showing up again when you’re tired? Kingdom work.

You don’t have to be in a perfect mood or have a Pinterest house to be living on mission.

You just have to do what you’re doing—for Him.

🙏 Prayer

Lord,

Remind me today that You’re in the small stuff.

Help me do every little task with love and purpose—even the ones that make me feel invisible.

Let my messy, loud, ordinary day become worship in Your eyes.

Strengthen me to keep going, not for perfection—but for Your glory.

Amen.

💛 Keep This Close Today:

Motherhood isn’t a detour from your calling.

It is your calling.

And every time you show up for your family—you’re showing up for Him.

You’re not “just” doing chores.

You’re doing holy work.
