Sometimes I'm completely overwhelmed.
I spend my time worrying about:
- dishes
- house
- behavior
- finances
- the future
- aging
- work
- people
The list could go one and on!! The one that is bolded, highlighted, and underlined is the one that most often is overwhelming. UNTIL... I stop looking at the future as something I can control and humbly and rightfully give it back to my heavenly Father. He's got this and I need to let it go!
The blessings I've been given are completely overwhelming as well:
- a big family
- a loud house
- noisy toys
- giggles & loud belly laughs
- Friends who truly care
- mommy, mommy, mommy
- cookies crumbs everywhere
- a pig pile of boys on top of me as we watch "America's Funniest Home Videos" together on the couch
Boy am I overwhelmed, and when I choose to focus on all the good, life is good! Just as God meant it to be...so full that the only way I can make it through my day is to look to HIM to fill me up to handle whatever this overwhelmed life has to offer.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him
Psalm 28:7
