Still I Rise




I found the above scripture quote on Pinterest tonight. It very accurately sums up how I feel right now. Even through failure, I will rise and seek God. Even when I sit in darkness and can see no way out, the Lord will be my light. No matter what may come my way, God is there and ready to comfort, strengthen and lead me.

The song below is called “It Is Well”. There is a phrase that says “Through it all, through it all, my eyes are on You. Through it all, through it all it is well, it is well with me.” 

No matter what, I know God is God. As long as I focus on Him and stay in line with His will for me, all is well and I can continue on. 

Rise! The Lord will be your light! Praise Him!

Thankful that Christ Himself has experienced all the same trials He asks me to endure. He goes ahead of me in each situation. Also walks beside me, helping me along. Tonight is one of those lay-on-the-floor-and-cry-out-for-help...

When My Heart Is Overwhealmed

I live on my own with my two beautiful children. I love it. I love having our own space and I love having our established routine. We all look forward to it and it provides the consistency and security the children and I have so desperately needed these past few years. About twice a month we jump into what feels like someone else’s life. Trying to be a big happy family, mothering an extra child, trying to cram in all our normal weekend activities while still attempting to connect with my spouse and caring for my own children’s hearts as well. I stress about my finances, trying to make sure I’m set up to do it all on my own in case anything changes with child support or in case something changes with my relationship status and I’m left to do it alone. It’s a lot to process. It feels like everyone just assumes everything is all good and I’m fine.   I’m not fine. I’m overwhelmed. I’m stressed and frustrated. I want to be able to rest and I don’t g...
