Writing about things helps me to keep my mind focused and on task. It also helps me to stay balance. So here we go. I'm getting a little tired in the middle of my 15 minutes cleaning drills here, so I decided to write a little of what I have been learning. I have learned that as a wife I can only be the best that I can be. I can be a mom to my daughter and a wife to my husband. I cannot determine what type of father my husband should be nor can I overcompensate for areas that might need work. I can't be it all and do it all nor can I make anybody else do more. I think I'm also learning that I need something in my life that I enjoy so much I could get lost in it. Not that I would get lost in it, but I believe people need that one thing they enjoy doing that when they need to get lost in something for awhile they have something to turn to. I don't believe in neglecting family and responsibilities but I do believe that sometimes you need a break, and you need to be able to turn to a hobby or something that you can get lost in to give you mind a break from you day to day grind. I'm really praying I find that for myself. Anyway, I'm getting ready to do 1 more 15 minute drill. I don't know what's next.
When I begin my day with a fast pace and a mind to "get things done" it really never ends well. I burn out pretty fast. When I take a "rest stop" at the very beginning of my day with God and linger a little, the day always goes better. Micah 7:7 says: Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; My God will hear me. It seems as if when I don't start my day with God a cycle of self-dependence starts and it never ends well. When I start my day with God, dependence on Him starts my day and He reminds me during morning devotional time to lean on Him to get through the day. It helps me to not get "caught up" I pray that for today, that I don't get caught up. Noah is home from school, not feeling very well. I just want to lean on God and trust Him to bring her comfort and help her to heal today. I'm praying that I to would...
