It is late. I really should be asleep. At almost 12:30 in the morning my not so little baby is finally asleep.... again. And the almost 4 year old is asleep after putting get to bed for the fifth time. Do you ever feel as though you are just late? ??? Behind??? Overwhelmed??? Seems to be the state of my life these days!
I have so many grand plans and ways to improve my schedule, or lack thereof :). Yet I always seem to be in this place of putting out fires.
After finally having a quiet moment, way overdue, I was reminded that I get way to emotional about things that really have no eternal consequences!
When your family notices you are upset very easily... picture the almost 4 year old saying " relax mom"... it's time to take stock and reevaluate! As always, when I let my Father speak and actually take time to listen my heart is soothed. He reminded me my life is about living my faith before my children and those He sends my way each day. When I forget to focus on that. .. everyone suffers.
Father, help me remember my life is about sharing how You lived and are still living today. Letting my life reflect Your life. When I focus on that....I know I will never be to late!
