God gives us strength!

Just a word of encouragement for you mothers out there. If you are anything like me, you could use all you can get.
Seems like everything falls apart when I start to cook dinner or sit down to write out the bills. My oldest wants a freezer pop, the middle one gets a stinky or smashs her finger, and the baby starts crying. As soon as I get one pacified then I have to take care of another's needs. It gets rather frustrating at times. I know there are times I feel like I haven't accomplished anything.
I thought about these things as I was listening to my dad's lesson this morning. He spoke about being exhausted in your marriage. I know I get exhausted many times when it comes to being a mother. We faint. That point when you say "I can't take it anymore" or maybe you just want to cry. But he pointed out a scripture that I am sure we have all heard.
"But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."
Isaiah 40:31
Maybe you have been helping your child off to college this week, your pulling overtime at the job, or just plain tired of your day to day route. Don't faint! Look to God for your strength. Are you praying yourself out of those stressful situations or are you counting? This scripture promises that the Lord will give you strength in those hard times but you have to rely on him. PRAY...PRAY..PRAY.. So keep slaving over that stove, wiping those snotty noses, and kissing those boo boos. God is right there with you. You are raising those children for the glory of God.. and every little thing you do counts!
