Ellie Holcomb has seen how becoming a mother has changed her view on life and God for the better.

The mother of three said to Crosswalk Headlines, "We are, first and foremost, beloved sons and daughters of the most high God. Being a mom has helped me remember that before I'm even a mom, I'm God's daughter, and He's going to take such good care of me, and He's going to take such good care of my kids, too. Man, what a freedom to know: We're all just God's kids, trying to make our way back home again. I am grateful for the freedom to be a kid, to mess up."

Seeing God's grace has become even more real to Holcomb who loves to experience the world through her young children's eyes. "Everything feels new and fresh, it's been so good for me as a grown-up."

As Holcomb tries to show the love of Jesus to her children, it's not always been easy. "I don't want you to be feeling like you have to get everything right all the time. You can come as you are to me, and it's given me freedom to come as I am into the presence of God."
