🌙 Newborn Nights with Jesus: Scripture Plans, Worksheets, and Bonus Tools for Tired Moms

For the mama whose coffee is cold, whose eyes are heavy, and whose arms are always full — Jesus sees you, and He is here with you.

💛 Why This Matters

Newborn life is beautiful. It’s also messy, exhausting, and sometimes downright lonely. When I was up at 3 a.m. nursing one baby while shushing another back to sleep, I felt invisible. But God whispered into those dark hours: “I see you. I am with you. I will strengthen you.”

The first two children were definitely harder in the first month… but this third baby was so much easier, because I had Jesus.

🕊️ 30-Day Scripture Plan for Tired Moms

“Rooted in the Word, Even in the Weary”

A full month of verses designed for moms in the newborn trenches. Each day has a method (word study, verse mapping, topical, devotional writing) so you learn how to study the Bible while also feeding your soul.


📝 Bible Study Worksheets for Moms

To make studying easy, I created 6 printable worksheets — one per page. Use them in your journal or print a whole stack to tuck in your diaper bag.

Worksheets included:

  • 🏗️ Theology Page (learn who God is)
  • 🛠️ Application & Rewrite (turn truth into action)
  • 📝 Verse Rewrite (reword Scripture in your own voice)
  • 🔗 Cross-Reference Study (connect verses together)
  • 💬 Devotional Writing (practice writing mini-devotions)
  • 🖼️ Image Reflection (sit in the word-pictures of Scripture)


🌟 Bonus Tools for Closeness with God

When studying feels impossible, these tiny rhythms invite God into the chaos:

  • 🕯️ Candle Time – light a candle + read one verse aloud each night
  • 🎧 Midnight Playlist – play soft worship while feeding baby
  • ✍️ Breath Prayers – pray with your inhale + exhale (“Lord, give me rest…”)
  • 📖 One-Verse Devotions – quick format: What does it say? What does it mean? How can I live it?
  • 🧵 Thread a Testimony Page – list little ways God showed up this week
  • 🫶 Identity Declarations – “I am seen. I am held. I am chosen.”
  • 🫙 Gratitude Jar – one thank-you note per night, reread at month’s end

💬 Closing Encouragement

Mama, you don’t need perfect conditions to meet with God. You just need a willing heart and maybe five quiet minutes in the rocking chair.

The same God who met Hagar in the desert, who gave Elijah rest under the broom tree, who whispered to Mary in her ordinary — He sees you.

You are not unseen. You are not alone. And you are not too exhausted to grow deep roots.

Let’s turn these sleepless nights into sacred nights. 🌙💛

I’m Jamie

Just a regular mama trying to raise little hearts while Jesus is still working on mine. I’ve got a kindergartener, toddler, a baby, and a deep desire to make our home a place of peace, faith, and sticky fingers. I’m new to faith, learning how to follow Jesus while homeschooling, baking, and asking “what’s for dinner?” for the third time in a day. My motherhood isn’t perfect, but it’s real — and if you’re here for truth, grace, and a little laughter along the way, you’re in the right place.
