In this special Mother’s Day message from Morningstar Methodist Church, Children’s Director Kimberly Burnett shares a heartfelt and encouraging sermon titled “Strength, Rest, and the God Who Builds Our Home.”

Drawing from Matthew 11:28–30, Psalm 127:1–2, and Proverbs 31:25, this message reminds mothers and families that God never intended for them to carry life’s burdens alone. Through honest reflection and biblical encouragement, Kimberly speaks to the exhaustion, pressure, and fears many mothers experience in today’s world while pointing listeners toward the rest, strength, and hope found in Christ.

This sermon offers encouragement for single mothers, grandmothers raising grandchildren, mothers of teenagers, and anyone seeking God’s presence in the middle of family life and responsibility.
