Feeling normal on a blessed morning…..

Thursday is my “normal morning”. I’m off on Wednesday nights for our youth service and so I actually get a good nights sleep. Thursday morning is the morning that I enjoy most of all….my only other night off is Saturday and needless to say our Sunday mornings are packed with church classes, responsibilities, and practices…not to mention getting the kids up and out the door. So Thursday morning really is a nice time in my week. I enjoy feeling like a normal human being. I like getting up before the kids and being able to start the day with some prayer, bible time and worship music. These things are almost always a part of all my days, but they don’t always happen first thing. It’s a nice time to catch my breath. I don’t know about you, but I face doubts in my life. Wondering if the things that I do matter, or if I am just running myself ragged with my lists and jobs that I have made for myself. Making my days so full with things that no one has asked me to do, but I feel like they need to be done….so I do them. Sometimes it all catches up with me and I wonder if anyone even notices or cares or if there is a point to it all. Why not just do the bare minimum? That is kinda how I have been feeling the beginning of this week. However, today is Thursday and it came  in like a breath of fresh air. 

This particular Thursday morning I woke the kids up and told them to get ready and we would go to breakfast. Where else would they want to go but Chic-fil-A?!? I figure that on a normal day we don’t usually start school until about ten, so why not take advantage of these few extra hours on a Thursday? 😃

I am enjoying this beautiful day with my kiddos…..



I want to encourage you to take a deep breath today. God’s got you! He knows the desires of your heart. Rest in Him~ everything is going to be ok- and all those things you do….they matter! ❤️

Hello to anyone taking time form their busy lives to read my blog. I am a wife to an amazing man, who I am blessed to serve alongside in youth ministry. I am mommy to two amazing kids who I am privileged to be able to homeschool. This blog is out of my comfort zone and certainly me trying to be obedient to Christ. I love Him more than I care about my own comfort or awkwardness. Hopefully, this blog is honest, real, and transparent. I'm not a big fan of fake. The Lord is using it to bring growth to me...and I pray that in the process something about my crazy beautiful life might also encourage others.
