These practical, soul-affirming meditations nurture a mother's heart and spiritual life in a season fraught with overwhelm, exhaustion, and loss of identity. Through the lens of Burdette's real-life stories, the reader is invited to ponder her experience and to contemplate where God might be present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is divided into three sections. Reflections in the first section, \"Becoming a Mother,\" explore the dynamics of being a new mother and the whirlwind experience of those early months and years. The second section, \"Becoming Yourself,\" considers what it means to return home to yourself-to begin to find your identity again, both within the realm of motherhood and outside of it. The third section, \"Becoming Holy,\" names the holy paradoxes of motherhood-the ways it can be both extraordinary and mundane, both gift and sacrifice-ultimately deepening one's experience of the holiness of motherhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Life That Is Ours includes an introduction, a preparatory guide for the reflective journey, a closing spiritual practice, and a conclusion.
