Imperfect

Today is not a good day for me. I feel down, upset, ...just broken. I feel like I am running a race that there is no end to. So much to do, so little time and capabilities. So many questions, so little answers. Days like this make me want to throw my hands up and submit, "I give up". But I know better. I know GOD doesn't give us anything we can't handle...but I wonder if he is trusting me too much.
I feel inadequate as a mother, aunt, wife, sister, and daughter...and mostly, as a servant to GOD. Nothing specific has happened...I think we all have days like this. I am just a little lost right now. For today...I have let the clouds take over my sun. I know, most definitely that I am blessed and loved by our Father in Heaven. I know that HIS grace is sufficient enough to cover my sins, problems, and worries. I know I can lay it all down at the foot of the cross and walk away, fully confident that He will take care of it all for me. I know that today will pass and tomorrow I will wake anew and afresh and all will be well...I know this.
Even though these kind of days don't "feel" good...I know we need them. They give us a chance to step back and and reevaluate our life and the path we're on. I guess it's good to be broken, because GOD is fully capable of fixing us, and making us better than ever. I love that about HIM. I have made so many mistakes, and wonder how I'll ever make up for them...but then realize, that if I never do, GOD loves me anyway. Jesus never pointed fingers, yelled, placed blame on, or disowned...he just kept His arms and heart wide open for anyone willing to accept Him in their life. What, as the song goes, "A Wonderful Maker".
This is not a pity party by any means...everyone has struggles...these are just my thoughts for the day, so take it as you will. I love GOD, and I love my family, and I love my life, and I am so thankful I have Him on my side.
I am so very thankful that I have family and friends that love me and are there for me...and I hope they know that I am always here when they need me, too...when their sun is hidden :-)
May your sun shine brightly today...



But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong...
