Fear Not: You Have Not Been Forgotten | Isaiah 40–49 + General Conference Prep This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah 40–49 and preparing our hearts and our homes for General Conference. And moms, if there is one message I hope you take away from these chapters, it’s this: God knows you. God has not forgotten you. God will strengthen you. God will lead you. And when what you’re carrying feels too heavy—He will carry you. Isaiah begins with the word comfort, and these chapters are filled with reminders for anyone who feels tired, overwhelmed, afraid, lost, or unsure of what comes next. We talk about:
Isaiah 40:28–31 — God gives strength to the weary. Isaiah 41:10 — Instead of asking, “How am I going to get through this?” we can ask, “WHO is going to help me through this?” Isaiah 42:16 — God can see a path that we cannot see. Isaiah 44:22 — We don't have to get everything together before coming back to Christ. He simply says, “Return unto me.” Isaiah 46:3–4 — “I will carry, and will deliver you.” We spend so much of motherhood carrying everyone else. What would happen if we let God carry us? Pasted markdown Isaiah 49:14–16 — When we wonder whether God has forgotten us, He reminds us that we are graven upon the palms of His hands. Pasted markdown
We’ll also talk about Elder Jeffrey R. Holland’s message “An High Priest of Good Things to Come” and Elder Matthew S. Holland’s “Forsake Not Your Own Mercy,” and what their messages teach us about continuing to trust Christ when answers and deliverance don’t come the way—or as quickly—as we hoped. And then… let’s talk General Conference. 🤍 Moms, General Conference does not have to become another thing for us to carry. We have done the conference boards. We’ve done crafts and activities for every talk. We’ve done all the things. And while those can be wonderful, we eventually realized that sometimes we were so busy creating the perfect conference experience that it was making conference more stressful. So we simplified. Our conference weekend now looks like: Legos. Candy. Notebooks. Cinnamon rolls. No extra screens. That’s it. The kids choose a Lego set within a budget, we grab treats, everyone gets a notebook, we make cinnamon rolls, put away the extra screens, and listen together. Not perfectly.Not always quietly.But together. Because simple doesn't mean less spiritual. And Mom deserves the opportunity to hear the messages of conference too. Pasted markdown A simple way to prepare for conference Instead of worrying about creating the perfect weekend, try three things: Before conference: Write down a question or prayer. During conference: Record the impressions that come. After conference: Choose one thing you feel prompted to act on. For younger children, let them draw their questions or impressions. For older kids, encourage them to write something they're praying about and then listen throughout the weekend. Ask Heavenly Father: “What do You want me to know?” Then make room to listen. Pasted markdown This week's invitation Before General Conference, write one question or prayer in your notebook. Then release the pressure to manufacture the perfect spiritual experience. Make the cinnamon rolls. Let the kids build the Legos. Get out the candy. Open your notebook. Put the screens away. And listen. Because somewhere between a conference talk, a prayer, a hymn, a child asking for another Kit Kat, and Lego pieces scattered across your living room floor… the Lord may have something He wants to tell you. Make room to hear Him. 🤍 Pasted markdown Scriptures: Isaiah 40–49Come, Follow Me: September 28–October 4, 2026Episode theme: Fear Not: You Have Not Been Forgotten

Episode 43: God Knew You Before You Were Born | Come, Follow Me Moms | Jeremiah 1–4; 6–7; 16–18; 20 Have you ever felt like God was asking you to do something you weren't qualified to do? Or wondered if your children are actually listening to anything you're teaching them? 😂 Mama, this week's Come, Follow Me lesson is for YOU! We're diving into the book of Jeremiah, a prophet who was called by God before he was even born. Jeremiah was asked to preach repentance to people who didn't want to listen. He faced rejection, discouragement, and opposition, but the Lord reminded him that he was never alone. And guess what? We can learn SO much from Jeremiah about motherhood! In this episode, we're talking about:
Episode 42: Beauty for Ashes — Letting Jesus Christ Transform Our Motherhood | Isaiah 58–66 Come, Follow Me Moms | October 12–18, 2026 “The Redeemer Shall Come to Zion” Mama, what are you living without right now? Maybe it's sleep, peace, friendship, hope, or simply the energy to make it through another day. Maybe you're carrying grief, disappointment, or a burden nobody else knows about. This week's Come, Follow Me study in Isaiah 58–66 is a beautiful reminder that Jesus Christ doesn't just help us get through life. He has the power to transform us. He can bring beauty from ashes, light into darkness, joy in our mourning, and hope for our future. In this episode, we're diving into Isaiah's powerful prophecies about the Savior, what it means to put on Christ every day, and how we can invite His transforming power into our homes and motherhood. Because, mama, you don't have to have it all together to come unto Jesus Christ. ❤️ 🌸 In This Episode, We'll Talk About:
Episode 41: He Hath Borne Our Griefs & Carried Our Sorrows | Isaiah 50–57 + General Conference This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re studying Isaiah and talking about some of my favorite messages from General Conference! Isaiah teaches us something every overwhelmed, exhausted, worried mama needs to hear: You were never meant to carry everything alone. Isaiah prophesied of Jesus Christ as “a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief.” He didn't just come to save us from our sins—He came to bear our griefs and carry our sorrows. He understands the worry, loneliness, exhaustion, heartbreak, mom guilt, and seasons when life looks completely different than we thought it would. Pasted markdown Sometimes we pray for God to take the hard thing away, but instead He says, “I'm going to walk through it with you.” In this episode we talk about:
Come, Follow Me Moms | September 21–27 Isaiah 13–14; 22; 24–30; 35 “A Marvellous Work and a Wonder” What if the things that feel broken in your life aren’t actually finished? This week in Isaiah, we see warnings about pride, worldliness, and turning away from God—but we also see an incredible message of hope, healing, and restoration through Jesus Christ. Isaiah describes broken walls, barren ground, heavy burdens, wandering people, and things that seem beyond repair. But that isn’t where the story ends. He also describes the wilderness blooming, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, sorrow disappearing, and God’s people being restored. In this episode, we’re talking about what all of that means for us as moms. We’ll dive into:
Come, Follow Me September 14–20 | Isaiah 1–12 | “God Is My Salvation” This week on Come, Follow Me Moms, we’re diving into Isaiah 1–12 — and if you’ve ever opened Isaiah, read three verses, and thought, “I have absolutely no idea what this man is talking about,” this episode is for you. 😂 Instead of trying to understand every symbol and prophecy, we’re approaching Isaiah with one simple question: What am I learning about Jesus Christ? And moms… He is ALL OVER these chapters. We’ll talk about how Jesus Christ cleans us, teaches us, calls us, qualifies us, counsels us, gives us peace, gathers us, strengthens us, rescues us, and stays with us right in the middle of our lives. Scriptures discussed: Isaiah 1:16–18 — “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.” Isaiah 2:2–5 — Going to the mountain of the Lord, learning His ways, and walking in His paths. Isaiah 6:8 — “Here am I; send me.” What does send me look like in motherhood? Isaiah 9:6 — Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 11–12 — Discovering the character of Christ and learning to trust instead of fear. Isaiah 12:2 — “Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid.” We also talk about the idols and comparison traps we face today, worrying more about the world’s approval than God’s, feeling like we don’t belong, and learning to turn to Jesus Christ as our Counsellor and Prince of Peace when motherhood feels chaotic. One of my favorite questions from studying this week was: “What experience have you had where God has entered into your story?” Because we can know all the Primary answers about Jesus — but do we know Him? Have we experienced His comfort? His direction? His peace? His rescue? We’ll also discuss teachings from President Dallin H. Oaks, President Boyd K. Packer, President Gordon B. Hinckley, President Harold B. Lee, and a thought from C. S. Lewis. This week’s invitation Don’t worry about understanding every single word of Isaiah. Open your scriptures and pray: “Heavenly Father, what do You want me to learn about Jesus Christ?” Then look for Him. Look for His character.Look for His promises.Look for what He does for His children. Because Isaiah teaches us that He is in the midst of thee. He is there in the laundry, the carpools, the hard conversations, the sleepless nights, the worries, the mistakes, and the ordinary moments of motherhood. And when the Lord asks, “Whom shall I send?” maybe our answer can be: “Here am I; send me.” 🤍 You are never behind. Just start where you are, open your scriptures, and come closer to Christ this week.
