I think one of the biggest challenges I face on a daily basis is "being real"... and knowing what that means while so many are looking... evaluating... asking... and waiting to see what my life is really like. It's a lot of pressure and sometimes I just want to hide...
And then I come across someone who dares to be real too... despite of all their failures... and I'm challenged again to live a life of authenticity... regardless of those who may condemn... because my life is not about them... it's not even about me...
I struggle sometimes with being my authentic self because I know I am a sinner and I don't want to let those watching me down. PLUS honestly, pride can get in my way.
Smiles, Cassidy

or my mommy ministry - who I have neglected because I felt no one was there reading - forgetting that God told me to write - He didn't tell me to write TO anyway, as my husband said last night - He will send those He intends to in HIS timing.

Because I do not have Outlook it will not let me email you. Would you email me at AThankfulMommy@aol.com - I have a Mommy ministry at www.grace4mommies.com that has been neglected and I would like to talk to you about it. I don't want to share the details in this comment box and fill it up. Thanks, Cass
and a woman seeking the Lord's Will (daily), a wife (striving to keep the romance alive), a "Smamma" (Step- mother) of one and a homeschooling mom of seven (I was never going to have children), who starts every day over (after messing SOME thing up the day before), knowing God's grace is overflowing (just like my laundry), and so thankful He's blessed me more than I'll ever deserve.
