Mommy Days!

So today was a challenging day for me. I know that I am not alone when I say that. As a mom we tend to over extend ourselves with all the many hats we wear, Mom , Teacher, wife, homemaker, friend, animal caretaker...... the list goes on and on. But as I sat there crying about all my woes in my room while my kids were doing school I was comforted by the Lord. I am only human and I will have good days and bad days. But as a christian I have peace knowing that I am Blessed not Stressed! The Lord died on the cross for my sins so that I might have life and have it abundantly. He knows the desires of my heart, my dreams and my ambitions. He knows when my plate is full and I feel overwhelmed, but he never gives me anything that he does not think I can't handle. So on this day when I am weary and feeling exhausted I ask God for strength, peace and the grace to pick myself up and cary on with my day. Does that mean that now my day if filled with roses and butterflies? NO, I still have all the same struggles but I know that God is with me through them all and I can do all things through christ who strengthens me. I share this with you today to encourage others that are stay at home homeschooling parents and that get down and out from their day to day struggles. Know that you are not alone and the God is with you always. Call out his name in your time of distress and he will hear you.

In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears. Psalms 18:6

God Bless!
