*****
"Hallelujah!
Praise God in his holy house of worship,
praise him under the open skies;
Praise him for his acts of power,
praise him for his magnificent greatness;
Praise with a blast on the trumpet,
praise by strumming soft strings;
Praise him with castanets and dance,
praise him with banjo and flute;
Praise him with cymbals and a big bass drum,
praise him with fiddles and mandolin.
Let every living, breathing creature praise God!
Hallelujah!" Psalm 150:1-6
An opportunity to win you book AND share a wonderful story...sounds good to me!! I am so blessed to be a stay at home mom of 2 beautiful and energetic girls (8 and 2), and I have the most hard working wonderful husband that makes this possible. But, being a stay at home mom isn't all it's cracked up to be! There are days that I don't even leave the house...not once, and that can get to be a bit much. That on top of the continual self doubt that many wives and moms have, was getting to be more than I could handle. I needed to reach out, but wasn't sure where to go. I needed someone who could relate with what I was feeling, someone that wouldn't judge me for being in this "slump", and then it hit me. She was someone that I had known for quite some time now, but I didn't know her very well. I felt a bit awkward reaching out to her with my plea..."Hi, how are you? Please help me, I feel like a bad mother and wife". But that's exactly what I did and I am so glad that I did. She is a wife and mom I admire, she loves the Lord with all of her heart, and has helped me become stronger with my love for Him also. I thank God daily for putting Heather in my life, she truly is a blessing to me.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing...your struggle sounds so familiar. As I was reading I was thinking, is she writing about my life or hers? I think we all have slump times and need a good friend to reach out to. Beautiful story. Thank you again for sharing!
