Lift your eyes

Lift your eyes [daily invitations to behold Christ in motherhood]

Whitney Newby

Book - 2025

"As moms, we spend a lot of time looking down: at our phones, at the toddler at our feet, at our mounting to-do lists. We also gaze to the side, envious of what others have. We might even look behind us, nostalgic about the past, or ahead in hope for a more manageable future. But what if God, through his Word, is gently placing his hand under our chins and lifting our eyes toward him? Derived from Psalm 121, these 40 devotions will help you lift your eyes from motherhood's trials and fix them upon God's character and strength. Alongside stunning original watercolor illustrations, Whitney Newby provides Bible verses, personal stories, and Scripture-based reflections that will encourage you amid motherhood's unique challen...ges. These concise devotions offer powerful reminders of God's promises whenever and wherever you need them. When you fix your eyes on him and know him as your Helper, Comforter, Shepherd, and Sustainer, you can move forward with purpose and hope in your mothering journey."--Back cover.
