Finding the beauty amongst the weeds of life isn't always easy. But it's there, somewhere, if you simply look for it.
It's there in the midst of the messy kitchen...
It's there in the midst of the chores that seem to keep piling and piling up...
It's even there amidst the waiting...
and the letting go...
Beauty and, yes, even joy are there in each moment...
If you choose to see it...
Isaiah 61:3 (NIV)
and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.
I'm just a small town girl that married her dreamy high school sweetheart. I've been a lot of things since graduating college but my best job has been that of wife and stay-at-home momma. I have 5 children, age 8 and under, and the ins and outs of our daily life is crazy and chaotic. I don't know how I would do it without the help of an amazing, compassionate, Almighty God (and also very nearby, helpful family members:) * * * * *
Psalm 73:26-
My flesh and my heart may fail but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
