me and my girls were sick off and on all week, starting sunday. so, my celebrations are on hold and my 4 year old is sad that i didn't have a birthday party or a cake.
i'm a little bummed that i missed so much time with my friends this week.
However, the reality is that this whole week has been a huge blessing.
i have felt the Spirit near me almost the whole time. even in the middle of chasing the 2 year old with a bucket and paper towels my husband and i were laughing and talking about how funny this will be in a few years.
i didn't work on my Bible study as much as i should have, i missed lunch and 2 walks with my friends, but i felt God's peace in the middle of my "light and momentary" (2 Corinthians 4:17) chaos.
today was less joy-filled than the rest of the week, but i know it was because i tried to function under my own power and not God's. i am very blessed to have a husband who is able to help me re-align my perspective in a loving way. i'll do better next time... maybe.
there is always tomorrow, or Jesus will come back; either way i'm good with it.
