For about 6 months I have been trying to manage my life more closely, learn discipline in all aspects of my spiritual, physical, and mental well-being all while managing a home and a family of 5. I'm no super mom but I tell myself I am...as I stare into a reflection that appears weak and vulnerable and marked with scars from my past.
I have found joy in that discipline. The sense of accomplishment at the end of the day is so worth every fighting moment whether I'm trying to race the clock and finish a few more reports before the kids wake up, fighting the urge to stay in my warm bed when I need to battle freezing weather to get to the gym, or setting aside time to focus on my inner self and what all The Lord wants to speak to me today. The list goes on and on.
We all have daily battles we face. But we are overcomers and The Lord literally strengthens me in all of these areas. He has helped me get out of bed, get to bed, get my work done, homeschool my children, clean my house, and manage my daily life.
I have never been an organized or disciplined person, but He is working in and through me to become my best self.
I give Him all the glory!
...And I praise Him for this joy and all the fun I am having in this stage of my life.
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO BALANCE? Can I help?
