random thoughts...
- I ♥ this song.....
- I have jiggly arm fat. It's not pretty watching your body age. But it's just a body and I am alive and thankful for life... Just not jiggly arm fat. It's a distraction.
- It's a beautiful day. I'm gonna take a walk with my ducklings.
- The end.

Don't stop believin'...
Life is HARD! And even harder when you are trying to live it right. The devil will push your buttons. He's pushed mine. I cannot deny. I was trying to fight back all by my lonesome and I came to a breaking point yesterday. I openly admitted that I cannot do this anymore. It's just too hard. It's too hard to keep everything together and in order.
In my brokenness, once again, I found hope. I am not alone. I was trying too hard to force something that has already being done.
God is taking care of me. God is taking care of my kids. God is taking care of Jess. God is taking care of everything. Nothing is out of His grasp.
I cannot stop believing... How appropriate with the study I am currently leading.
The Lord can truly use anyone. Even my children signing a line from Journey. The Lord encourages me through random lyrics. I'll be singing a random verse or chorus all day before I stop and listen to what I am singing and it almost always pertains to something I am going through or something I had been meditating on.
I am adamant about letting the Lord provide and we do our best with what we are given. I forgot this little virtue of mine recently when I knowingly dove (head first) into some projects that were fun but not a necessity. Vintique being one of them. I just thought it'd be fun to do something crafty and I justified it by getting paid. My time (what very little I have left of it) was being used in the wrong ways and it was causing a strain in the areas of my life where I know I am needed the most. I won't beat myself up too much because I wasn't being horribly selfish with my time like I have been in the past but what I had been selfish with, caused a ripple effect. I was staying up late to craft which was affecting my mood the next day with the kids and on the weekends I was scrabbling to put more stuff in the booth, and there were several nights I would be gone and leaving Jess to stay home with our sleeping children. And just the thought of my stuff being in demand come fall and having to craft even more, made me cringe. I don't want to be that person ever again. The person that puts it all on the line and lives with constant stress trying to make a buck. An hour of my time might produce $30 eventually but my time with my family is of greater value to me. It is priceless. God has called me to be a mother and I am believing that He will meet my needs to do what He has placed before me. God has called us to be a family and we are believing that He will meet our needs to do what He's called us to do. God has called me into ministry and I am believing that He will open the doors. Life doesn't have to be stressful. I have found peace in the fact that I don't have to make anything work. He has us in His grasp and I am going to hang on to Him.
My prayer:
Lord, you know what I need at this time in my life and in every area of my life. I trust you to take care of me and provide me what I need to live this life for you.
Don't stop believing!
