As I dropped Maximus off at daycare this morning I couldn't help myself but cry! It's been a challenging morning to say the least. Max does not like to get up early and having to wake him up before the sun us out isn't fun. He then decided to pee all over his high chair. Trying to clean that mess, encourage him to eat his breakfast and chase after him all started to take a toll on me. Mind you I haven't had my coffee yet! Ahhhh!
At last we were headed out and he was in a good mood to take a selfie - can't miss these moments. So, as I drove off I just cried and ask God to give me His strength. I thanked him for a crazy morning but I also asked him to give me more of him and less of me ❤️
As I sit here in Starbucks reading my devotional He gave me this:
"As you reflect on your motherhood experiences, I hope you realize how much God loves you. I pray you will seek him daily. God is always there for you. May he continue to guide you and bless you through the joys and the challenges of motherhood"
Now how fitting is that! He is guiding me through it all - even with a toddler throwing a tantrum. It's not always glitz and glamour - I too have my mornings where I just want to crawl back into bed. But today I am rejoicing, enjoying my latte in peace and appreciating Max's day at daycare.
Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. (1 Chronicles 16:11 NIV)
Hang in there mamas! YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ❤️🙏
