Walk with me GOD, please be with me now, I am calling out to you, take this evil from me, take it all, every lie, I do not want to own them anymore.
I give all the sin to you, save me. I once was lost, now I am found, blind but now I see. I trust you to walk with me in the truth, and face the evil that owned me.
When I feel heavy, when I feel light, when I am happy, when I am sad I will walk with you. I will trust in you. Help me to trust in you, to be good for you.

ARE YOU A BROKEN MOM?
How many women actually examine how prepared they are for the responsibility of another human? Are you prepared for the emotional responsibility that comes with poor decisions? Are you prepared to live with the consequences of your actions for the rest of your life?
I empathize with women who find themselves unable to cope in life after having children. I believe that many women, including myself, who have had children, did not plan the pregnancy and became wrapped up in the fantasy of having a perfect family once they were pregnant. Getting to the route of why motherhood has become a series of jumbled tasks and stressed out less pleasurable experiences can be based on many factors, beginning with the environment you live in. Ask yourself, have you stopped looking at your life all together years ago and turned on autopilot.
Are you inspired in your life and surroundings? Do you enjoy your home? Have you painted and decorated to suit your emotions and feelings? Does your house feel like a home? Does it welcome you when you return to it after draining your brain all day to make money? Or is your home just a place you sleep and watch television in while your children are being raised by someone else? What is a mother or wife thinking about in America today? What kind of situation do you have? Do you know if you changed things life would be better for you and your kids but you still choose not to? Are you raising kids, tired, and lonely? Do you work all day, cook, clean, chauffeur, and consider zoning out in front of the television a constructive activity for your evening?
Is that type of day giving you healthy results? If not, do you feel as if you don't matter or exist? Do you enjoy your life? Everyday is somewhat pleasant? Are you happy? Do you have happiness? How often do you smile during the day? Do you smile at all? Or do you feel like you have this family thing all wrong and are now trapped in an inescapable life? What do you do with your thoughts and feelings? How do you cope with the secrecy of having such a feeling, do you hide it? Do you shop to make yourself feel better? Do you smoke cigarettes? Do you over-eat? Do you drink? Do you do drugs? Do you cut yourself? Are you a sex addict? Are you abusive towards your kids, physically, verbally, emotionally, mentally? Are you mean and strict to your kids out of silent resentment? Do you blame your spouse and make his life unpleasant? How do you beat yourself up for having negative thoughts and feelings?
Many women are trapped in their minds and in a society that condemns them for not being June Cleaver, an
idealized fictional TV character. Mothers who cannot take care of their children are viewed as failures and it is taboo for a society to sympathize with the mother. It is easy for people in need to look away from their own problems and dysfunction because they are in a state of hopelessness. So many of our fellow Americans suffering, including my own suffering could have been prevented if we as a society and the people around us were more willing to open the appropriate avenues and provide the necessary tools to help mothers who are in need.
The definition of a woman is a female adult; the definition of a mother is a female parent. How is a women meant to instinctively know how to care for her child the way a bird instinctively travels? Have we made our lives so complex that our women and children suffer as a result of our fast-paced lives? You may know you need help but are too ashamed to ask. Why is it so hard to admit to ourselves that we need help? If you are a broken mom you probably are unable to admit this for fear of being an outcast. Somewhere in our brains are the explanations that science and modem medicine have not yet uncovered. The ability to detach your responsibility to your own child can be detrimental to the course of your life and to society as a whole.
So why do we allow women to continue this behavior and why do we not address the overwhelming epidemic of broken moms?
