I Am A Mother | Lisa Young | Mother's Day 2026

Main message: Mothers often feel overwhelmed and cry "I need more" — more time, help, energy, information, wisdom — but beyond practical fixes the ultimate supply is Jesus, whose "living water" and power enable mothers to lead their children spiritually. Be filled by Christ (not just better equipped) so your life and testimony shape your family.

Key points:

• The speaker shares candid motherhood stories/illustrations (pregnancy prep, Lamaze VHS, raising four children, twins) to show common feelings of inadequacy.
• Common "I need more" needs: information, time, energy, help, guidance, and wisdom — with practical advice (take inventory of commitments, learn to say no, prioritize health, enlist help, use church/community).
• Practical resources and community matter, but they don't fully address the deepest need.
• Jesus' conversation with the woman at the well (John 4) models offering "living water" — a continual, supernatural supply that satisfies beyond practical solutions.
• If moms are filled with Christ (Ephesians 3:14–21/3:20), their lives become a visible spring that impacts their children and community; the sermon closes with Paul’s prayer for that filling.

Scriptures mentioned: John 4:13-14, Ephesians 3:14-21, Ephesians 3:20
