There are some days that you just wake up feeling overwhelmed. That is what today feels like for me. The kids are getting up earlier, which means it is harder for me to get in the word. I usually get up about 6:30 so I have 30 to 45 minutes to just sit with my cup of coffee and be with my Jesus. That hasn't happened for a few days, and I'm feeling it. My patience is running very thin with my 3 children and my grand-daughter. The whining of the 3 yr old, the constant 'No's' of the 2 yr old, the air-headedness of the 5 yr old and the know-it-all of the 7 yr old, have me almost over the edge. I wish I could say that I was this awesome mom, who sits with her children and does crafts, goes to the park, finds all these creative things for them to do....but I'm not. It takes everything in me to keep my house clean, kids fed and clothed, homeschooling done and taking care of my husbands needs.
This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
