The Grace Filled Life with Margo Martin

By: Margo Martin
  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Grace Filled Life. As a mama of 4 young girls, I have grown weary of trying to keep up with the perfect pictures I see on social media when my life looks nothing like that perfect picture. My heart is to bring reality, encouragement, laughter, and a whole lot of Jesus to mamas who just want to know they aren't alone in the mess. I hope that as you listen, you feel less alone and encouraged through life and scripture to lean into a grace filled life!

  • Ep. 47- How to Stay Present in the Little Years/Hard Seasons and Exciting News!
    Aug 30 2024

    The little years of parenting are exhausting and hard. Being in a season of waiting on "what you really want to do" is hard. Being single while longing for marriage is really hard. Working a job that you don't love while waiting for the career you dream of is hard! We all have seasons of life that are easy to wish away because they are hard.


    I remember when my girls were 7, 5, 2, and 3 months old. I was in the thick of the "little years", and I was exhausted. I remember fully loving them and the moments, but also longing for the days when they were older and could do more things on their own....and when I could get a full nights sleep! That stage is all of a sudden gone for me, and I have found myself reflecting on how I could have look at hard seasons a little different.


    Join me on the podcast today as we talk about hard seasons, the little years of parenting, Psalm 90, the life of Moses, and also...I share my bit of exciting news!!


    Scripture References: Psalm 90 CSB

  • Ep. 46- The Struggle with Mom Guilt
    Feb 26 2024
    Can I make a confession? I hate the phrase "mom guilt"...mostly because I immediately feel guilty! This phrase "mom guilt" has gotten quite a bit of attention amongst my peers in the past few years. I really struggle with mom guilt and regret. I feel guilty about all the things I should be done that I am not with my kids and with my life! I feel guilty about feeling guilty! The thing is though, that if we are living like we are guilty, then we are living as though what Jesus did wasn't enough. It leaves our kids watching a mom who is essentially saying that Jesus wasn't enough for her in this area! I don't know about you but that stings beacuse it's true for me! It may be the heaviness that comes with raising kids, but for some reason, we seem to think that feeling guilty as a mom is ok and we sit in it and joke around about it like it is normal. Living in guilt is living in enemy territory. It's time to take it back and teach our kids how to live free and in the light of grace too! Memory verse for the week: "So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death." Romans 8:1-2 Printable and Coloring Page:

  • Ep. 45- Helping Our Kids to Be Wise (Us too!) Psalm 111:10
    Feb 19 2024

    Join me on the podcast this week as we talk about what it means to be wise! I tell my girls all the time that you can be really smart but really unwise. Here's what I want you to soak in...Wisdom is a deep understanding that the world isn’t always right, but God’s ways are.  Psalm 111:10 shows us the way to wisdom. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his instructions have good insight."

    There is so much to unpack in this verse!!! We start to gain wisdom by having a fear of the Lord! Our kids are growing up in a culture that lacks Godly wisdom but believes themselves to be smarter than the last generation. It's a problem. This verse is a good start to helping ourselves to lean into God's way to wisdom.
