Today I felt like giving up!
I really truly didn't feel like I had anything left to give.
Giving my whole life is all that I know...
How can I take care of Everything! I just felt so.... unfeeling. If that is possible, Unfeeling is the way that I felt.
But.... Here I am, Home from work, away from all the stress of live..
I have a refuge, I realized today that I do have a refuge! I can walk into the front door of my Home, and the unfeeling person I was earlier, now has feelings, I can breath again.
Well now that I am feeling again I was uploading pictures off of my phone, of the events of the last couple of weeks!
And when I realize ALL of the GIVING that people have done for me, I realize that ..... Well... I think I really truly take more than I give, and I think the word for that is, Selfishness, I was so preoccupied will all of the things going on I didn't take a look back at ALL that people GIVE to me! I was like a black Hole, taking everything from people, and not giving anything Back really! There are so many around me, who need help, who need comfort, and I am too busy pitying myself for what I give, that I don't even take the time to help others in need. When others truly are taking time to give to me!
I am truly grateful for those wonderful people in my life, who teach me life lessons, and Today I learned a Lesson! Being Selfish is So not good for the soul!
Being a mom is hard work! But I know without a doubt that my heavenly father has given me my children because they need me, and I need them! I desire nothing more than to teach, nurture, love, and strengthen the testimony of my children, so that we can All make it back to our Heavenly Father, and Jesus Christ! I want to Endure to the end, and that is what this earthly life is about.
I know that as long as we obey the lords commandments, and have faith, That we will!
It was so nice to see you at church today. Thanks for sharing your testimony. I could relate to this post. Sometimes we get into ruts that are so hard to get out of. You are such a good person. We need to get together.
ReplyDeleteHey Brit! I don't have your email OR your phone number OR your address....so I guess this is the best way to find you!! You are SO SO sweet to have thought of me and sent me that adorable little package. I was so excited to open it. First BLUE thing I've ever had in this house ;) Thank you so much! We're excited to have another..but I'm glad I have 5 more months to prepare. How are things with your cute kids? I haven't seen them in ages, but they are so cute in the pictures. Actually, I'm pretty sure I've only met Titan- and he was TINY! Well hopefully we'll get to see you next time there's a family get together. Take care and had a FABULOUS Christmas!
