Being a mother to five kids is a challenge. God knew what he was doing I'm sure when he blessed me with this handful of small people.
They stretch me constantly.
They test me, and in so doing I know God is testing me.
Do I run and hide?
Do I scream and yell?
Do I fall in a heap of tears mimicking a tantrum like a 2-year old?
Oh yes.
There are times I do.
But then I'm reminded by the Spirit within that this selfishness isn't going to work.
My desires and wants are slowly pointing in the right direction, unless *BAM* my sin is so obvious I have no choice but to do a 180.
Even though I'm constantly changing directions, I am confident I'm being led the right way.
His way.

His way is always the right way. Praise be to God.
