Finding God in the Mess: Heather Lopez Renteria's "Holy Chaos" Devotional for Moms

Motherhood is messy. Life is messy. And faith? Sometimes, it feels like it has got to wait until the dishes are done or the laundry is folded. But Heather Lopez Renteria is here to flip the script. Her new devotional, Holy Chaos, doesn't ask you to have it all together. It meets you right in the middle of the chaos and points straight to Christ. 

Heather says, "I've always wrestled with faith in the middle of real life, messy kitchens, sleepless nights, and moments where motherhood feels overwhelming. Writing this devotional came out of my own need to find God in the middle of that chaos, not just in the quiet moments I wished I had." 

For Heather, Scripture isn't a luxury, it's a lifeline. Through the rollercoaster of motherhood, she clings to 2 Corinthians 12:9: "My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." She admits, "It reminded me that I didn't need to have it all together to write this, I just needed to lean on Him." 

The heart of Holy Chaos is simple, radical, and deeply freeing: God doesn't require perfection, He meets us in the mess. From sticky-fingered hugs to laundry piles, from bedtime battles to soccer carpool lines, Heather shows moms that ordinary moments are sacred and full of God's presence. 

What sets this devotional apart? Heather's honesty. Her devotionals are short, story-driven, and designed to meet you where you are...whether you have ten minutes or two. She shares, "The hardest part was carving out time in the middle of busy days. The most rewarding? Hearing other moms say, 'This is exactly what I needed.'" 

Holy Chaos is written for the exhausted mom who wonders if she's doing enough. Heather's advice is bold, edgy, and heartening: start small. Even five minutes with God can shift your whole day. She encourages writers to dive in, even when fear is loud: "Don't wait until you feel ready. Start with what you have right now. God has a way of multiplying even the smallest offering." 

Through this devotional, Heather has discovered a truth that all moms need to hear: your worth isn't measured by your to-do list. It is rooted in Christ. And through sharing that truth, she's reminded readers (and herself) that faith isn't just for quiet mornings or Sunday services...it's woven into every messy, beautiful moment of life. 

Heather's words are a rallying cry: Holy. Real. Grace-filled. And now, moms everywhere can experience the freedom and hope she's found.
