Do you ever feel completely overwhelmed? By life and all that it brings? I think everyone does at one time or another.
I started working full time last May, after being home with my boys for many years. I am completely grateful that I was able to work at home while my kids were growing up. Now I am experiencing a new kind of gratitude to God. That is, that He has given me this job.
However, working away from the home full time brings new challenges. So, I can sometimes feel like I’m drowning in my “to-do” list. I want to reiterate what I wrote about last time: There are times that I need to stop the striving and be still and know that God is God and He is in control of everything in my life. Does He really care that I get that floor scrubbed this weekend, or that the bathrooms have not been cleaned in who-knows how long? Probably not. But, He does care where my heart is at and where your heart is at.
Take time to be quiet with God, to “be still” before Him. He can fill your heart with such peace in the midst of trying to finish a long list of chores and obligations. He loves you so much!
Have a good week. God’s blessings in all you do.
