Overwhelmed by My Blessings: Encouragement for Moms (Part 1)

5 günden 3. gün

I remember one day when my children were young, my husband coming home from work and finding us all sitting in the floor crying. Even me! I was done. Done in, over-done, and undone. I was looking for the place where mothers go to resign. “I can’t do this anymore,” barely getting the words out to my husband through my sobs. “It’s too much! They don’t listen to me. The house is always a mess. I don’t even have time to do the things that have to be done just to keep us from living in squalor!” After settling us all down, he later talked to me about a concept I’ve since used again and again. My gentle man said, “Robin, it’s not going to get any easier for quite a while. You’re going to have to decide to accept that and do the best you can.” Wow! My attitude needed changing. With a lot of grumbling and struggling, I began to allow those words to go deep into my heart. I began to see things differently. I started making the choice to accept that my days were going to be boring, mundane and uneventful-----unless I made them more fun. I needed to enjoy, rather than escape. I was always going to be stressed and overwhelmed, unless I learned to give up and accept the fact that with all God had given me, He would also provide a way for me to deal with it in a loving, patient manner. As I learned to give up my preconceived ideas of how life was supposed to be and give of myself to my children, life got easier. OK. It really didn’t. But I was stepping into a new area of personal growth and maturity that benefited me and my family. Father, please give me the courage to step into the reality that my day is what I make it, based on my attitudes. I invite you into my circumstances. Help me to see with your eyes, knowing that all I do and say today counts for eternity, and is not wasted effort. I pray for your strength to be mine, choosing to find joy, Your joy, even in the most mundane tasks. I place my day in Your hands, agreeing that today is a good day to have a good day!
