Our dear Lord allows enough time for what He needs done. Thank you Lord for showing me what was your priority. Trying to balance a home, school, marriage, family, work and sanity can be beyond overwhelming! But today, the Lord used my sweet friend to remind me of what was important (and why I was so cranky!) God had given me my cup. Right now my cup is filled with His love...for me...and to be shared. He has given me enough time for household duties (which truly blesses my husband), work (where we're able to do school-wow!), financial matters and the other things that need to be done. I then need to make a choice how I will use that time. Lord, help me make the choice pleasing to you, not the choice that is only pleasing to me...for in your will is where I want to be.
May you enjoy, and find joy in your home, marriage and family...let go and let God..
God bless you! He'll show you His priorities if you ask, and I can testify to the fact that He'll give you joy in doing what He wants done (like scrubbing that dish for the dinner that will bring your family together where laughter will be shared or finishing something your husband asked you to do and seeing how he feels loved by your respect and commitment...)
