Life as we see it can be complicated sometimes and overwhelming at times and just plain discombobulating....right? Right! I believe we over think things and turn minor hassles into ginormous molehills. I was talking to my son today and sometimes I think that I do not always express what I am trying to say very well and I think it makes him feel less then adequate. I have to say it is never my intentions to do that but, I do and I feel oh so bad about it. I really would like to see both my kids succeed in their lives and my son struggles so much that he gets frustrated and then just stops trying.....Me in trying to help him and encourage him to keep trying and keep working hard even when he wants to give up I think makes him feel not so good. I know life is not easy and as they grow they will face challenges that I have not had to face as a kid and honestly it scares me but, I know that God is in control and He will guide my kids to where He wants them only if they let him.......I can not go to school for them but I can do my best to help them and I can pray for them....The power of Prayer is a mighty thing and if we utilize it like we should our minor hassles will stay just that....do not get me wrong we may very well have ginormous molehills too but they will not be our making.......and when we have to face those molehills with God as our hang glider it will be an easier trip. We will have to go down into the valley at times and learn the lessons that wait for us there but as we look to the top we will have a feeling of accomplishment that no one but God can provide and remember to say Thank You to God even if you do not feel like it. The Lord is our Shepherd we shall NOT want but to get there we have to release control. I guess my point is I have to let go of my kids and let God have them and trust that He will have His hand on their lives and not let go so that I can. Letting go is not easy and I do not want to but, I have to. I can raise my kids and pray for them but when it comes to decisions in their life I can not make them they have to so God take them, guide them and help them to go where you want them to.......
That's my thought for the day,
Crazy for Christmas
