Hardest journey ever and people always...Parenting. Hardest journey ever and people always have an opinion on what you aren't doing well. Like we don't already know! Shut the people out! Only the ones with love and grace deserve your attention! There will always be people who think they can do it better or you can do it better but most likely they aren't the people who love you or know you. Those who know you love you and know how awesome you are! Maybe you aren't feeling it right now but we are here to remind you that you are awesome, an amazing mother and a child of the King! He loves you and will equip you and has blessed you with a husband who gets that and will lead and point you to Him! there is peace in knowing we dont have to know how to do it all and that He meets us right where we are. He is all you need!anthonyandbethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10724718343894688114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281333125458134262.post-9532524677926059362011-07-30T00:35:23.802-04:002011-07-30T00:35:23.802-04:00As always, thanks for sharing the real. And I'...As always, thanks for sharing the real. And I'm so thankful for Pat who loves you and listens and is a man of God who points you back to His word. Looking for advice on parenting can be SO VERY HARD as we compare ourselves and wonder and struggle with our failures. I am sure that information on parenting newly adopted kids varies just as much as information on feeding schedules on newborn babies. Thankfully our God is full of grace and is able to compensate fully for wherever we might fail. You are one of the very best parents I know, and I am assured that God will give you grace for these days as well.

I know you feel this enormous pressure from everyone seemingly watching you. Praying that you will rest in the fact that God has entrusted these six to you and pat. He believes in you and will empower you along the way. Keep looking to Him. He will order your steps.

I am naturally anxious, and as you know, being a parent is a constant struggle to not be anxious. But at those times, when I am scared, and feel lost, and maybe like I screwed it all up, I cry out to God "Father help me! I am so scared and I don't know what to do! Please tell me what to do!!" And he answers me. I will hear a quiet voice in my head say something like: <br /><br />Patience.<br /> Wait. <br />Go home and wait for her.<br /> Not yet. <br />Just keep going. <br /><br />The answers are always right. If I do what He says, it always works out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18121336237382333150noreply@blogger.com
