Each page of this book is filled with wisdom, encouragement, and practical application for the common difficulties we face in motherhood. Her words remind us how to think biblically about our situations and keep our eyes fixed on the horizon and the glory of Christ.”<br /><b>—Laura Wifler, author, podcaster, and coauthor of <i>Risen Motherhood</i>  and <i>Gospel Mom </i></b></p>

<p> “In <i>Lift Your Eyes</i>, Whitney Newby is there for tired moms, offering gospel-driven hope when we need it most.

<p> “With much warmth and wisdom, <i>Lift Your Eyes</i> encourages mothers to remember the source of their help as they are in the thick of motherhood. Using Psalm 121 as the framework for how moms can lift their eyes from the daily realities of motherhood to the character and steadfast love of the Lord, Whitney shows her readers how every promise of God finds its ‘Yes’ and ‘Amen’ in Jesus, and that in Him we have all that we need for the journey in all ages and stages of motherhood.”<br /><b>—Courtney Tracy, author of <i>Putting Jesus First: A 21-day Devotional Journey Through Colossians </i></b></p>

<p> “The eyes of a mom are always darting around: ahead at all she has to tackle, all over to assess the needs of her kids, to the left to see how she’s measuring up, down at the messes she has to clean, and in the mirror lamenting the toll of motherhood. <i>Lift Your Eyes </i> invites moms to fix their gaze on something more life giving—and I don’t just mean the watercolor illustrations. With clear and accessible writing as beautiful as her art, Whitney vulnerably, authentically, and sincerely shares the good news of the gospel for the good, bad, ugly, and ordinary days of motherhood in a way that will redeem the way you see it all.”<br /><b>—Abbey Wedgeworth, mom of three, author of <i>Held</i> and the <i>Training Young Hearts</i> series </b></p>

<p> “When tired, stressed, or depressed, we are tempted to fix our eyes in any place but the right place. In <i>Lift Your Eyes</i>, my friend Whitney lovingly, joyfully, and faithfully inspires hard-working moms to lift their eyes to the One who helps, the Lord who made heaven and earth. Though this book is designed to encourage moms, its message is the refrain of every Christian’s life—we are loved, saved, and held, and as we live this sometimes-turbulent life, we will lift our eyes to the One who has paid for and continuously provides for all our needs.”<br /><b>—Ryan Welsh, lead pastor at Restoration Church </b></p>

<p> "My lovely friend Whitney has written a book that is encouraging, honest, rich, and absolutely beautiful. What a resource this is! I will be giving this book to all the mamas in my life who need to be reminded of who God is moment by moment.” <br /><b>—Francesca Battistelli, Grammy-winning recording artist and mama of seven </b></p>

I will be giving this book to all the mamas in my life who need to be reminded of who God is moment by moment.”—Francesca Battistelli, Grammy-winning recording artist and mama of seven"I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?" —Psalm 121:1 As moms, we spend a lot of time looking down: at our phones, at the toddler at our feet, at our mounting to-do lists. We also gaze to the side, envious of what others have. We might even look behind us, nostalgic about the past, or ahead in hope for a more manageable future. But what if God, through his Word, is gently placing his hand under our chins and lifting our eyes toward him? Derived from Psalm 121, these 40 devotions will help you lift your eyes from motherhood’s trials and fix them upon God’s character and strength. Alongside stunning original watercolor illustrations, Whitney Newby provides Bible verses, personal stories, and Scripture-based reflections that will encourage you amid motherhood’s unique challenges.

When you fix your eyes on him and know him as your Helper, Comforter, Shepherd, and Sustainer, you can move forward with purpose and hope in your mothering journey.
