Where is God in single parenthood? Alifeleadsimply single mama finding her why

I have learned that the Bible gives so much reassurance and strength to us, even when we feel like failures because we now have to set out on this single parenting journey. Where is God in single parenthood? Right beside you, holding your hand. With Him, even when you are single parenting, you are not doing it alone.

Hi! I am Esrida, mama to two beautiful girls. Although I never planned to be a single parent, my life has taken a few unexpected turns which lead me to this place. Luckily for me, I could find the blessing and reason in each disruption, and now it is my heart’s desire to inspire and motivate you to realise that even though your kids might come from a single-parent home there is no reason it should be a broken one. There can be purpose in your pain, and healing in the journey.
