there was a wife who was too needy and depressed...
a mother and home-educator who was too stressed out and distracted...
a homemaker who was too overwhelmed and disorganized...
until one day she remembered that the roles she had been given of wife, mother and homemaker were divine roles. She knew she needed to simplify. She needed to slow down, be present and grateful. But most of all, she knew she needed to seek more diligently for divine help from the person who gave her these precious roles in the first place.
She knew He could help her grow into the woman she needed to be to fill those roles in the way she was meant to.
It's going to be an interesting journey!
I feel deeply moved by the personal thoughts you are sharing. My thoughts returned to counsel from Julie Beck. What a great teacher--and example you are for me, dear Angie!
