Got some much needed rest last night and woke up early to spend time in the Word. I've been battling a few things in the sense of motherhood - to the point where it was starting to cause fear in my mind. I took some time yesterday and reevaluated my priorities and finding a new balance. I've made a new work schedule (working from home is a challenge) where I can work and also have quality time with Max. I also looked into joining a mom group - I need a place where I can simply be a MOM! Share my struggles, share the goodness and what not. And I'm going to see a therapist to get some advise from a person who has no idea who I am. Don't get me wrong I'm very GRATEFUL for my circle of friends, my husband and family as they have been very supportive and there for me. But I just need to be somewhere where I can be Angela; not a coach, not a friend, not a wife but just ME! I know talking to a professional is going to help me - I've seen a therapist since I was 6 years old so I know how beneficial they are. No I'm not CRAZY! LOL!! Although sometimes I think I am! But in all seriousness this is going to be good for me. I'm not ashamed or embarrassed - in fact I personally think more people should talk to a professional. Now you might be wondering, why not fully Trust in God? I definitely do: He's my ultimate counselor, His daily wisdom gets me through, His everlasting peace and He's created counselors too.
The funny thing is I woke up to study and my devotional talks about balance in life and trusting in God! See how funny God is - He's always on time! It's a new day, the heaviness has been lifted and I'm looking forward to this new path I'm on. I'm human, I cry, I get frustrated, I'm happy and most importantly I'm proud of the type of woman I am....a Strong Godly Woman.
Wherever you are in your life, the struggles you may be facing or the uncertainty just be patience, trust in God and its all going to work out.
You are STRONG, BEAUTIFUL, SMART, FEARLESS and God LOVES you! Let Him design you.
Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: (Psalm 37:5 NIV)
