There are definitely times in life that it feels like it’s raining…then there’s the times that rain becomes a deluge. I’m really not a big believer in the whole “when it rains it pours” theory, but I have to admit that sometimes it feels that way.
That is my life right now.
Don’t worry, I’m not planning on getting all discouraging on you, but I do want to keep it real. I struggle, just like every other mom I know. Life doesn’t always go according to plan and sometimes things feel like they are falling apart around you.
I’m not immune to it either.
Of course, the bottom line through it all is how we react. The dilemmas that face us, the hardships that cross our paths and the pain that we have to work through are all part of the learning curve that develops who we are and what direction we are choosing to go.
I don’t always react the right way.
The consequences are something I have to live with and move on in spite of. But again, they are shaping me, and hopefully making me stronger and wiser.
So today although this isn’t typical of a post you will find here, I just want to send out a message that you aren’t alone in whatever struggle you are dealing with. Even if the world seems to be falling down around you, you are still not alone. There are so many people in your life that care and you just need to learn to lean on and trust others sometimes.
It’s hard, and sometimes it messes with our pride. We have to move past that.
So my prayer for you this week is that if you are feeling run down, exhausted, overwhelmed, or even something way bigger than those…that a friend will come along side you and hold up your arms in your weakness.
