How to Approach Father's Day as a Single Mom
Single Moms, when Father’s Day comes around do you feel alone––maybe even discouraged? Do you find yourself holding back tears because your little ones have no daddy upon whom they can shower homemade cards and kisses? Or maybe you’re the mom who stands alone in the doorway of your home as your children ride away to enjoy a few hours of playtime––with their every-other-weekend dad.
Even though you may feel like you’re the only one raising kids without a spouse, statistics reveal you are not alone. However, far beyond the comfort of knowing there are lots of other single moms out there who have the same struggles as you, find comfort in knowing you are not alone because God says you are not!
Do you realize God is more interested in nurturing and building the character of your children than you are? Be encouraged by this promise from the Lord:
“The Lord is a father of the fatherless.” (Psalm 68:5)
