It’s all about keeping our priorities straight; keeping our eyes on Jesus!

Isn’t it amazing how all things fall into place when we look to Him?!

Help me to be a servant, Lord.

I struggle with this daily....setting aside my To-do list and focusing on my four kids. Sometimes weeks will go by and I'll think, "When was the last time I sat and played a game with them?" Yikes! I've found that most of my frustrations with my kids come when I'm focusing on tasks and they are "interupting" me. When I can be self controlled and have a set time (say, nap time) for my own tasks and then have all my other time be interaction with kids, our days go so much better and they are so much happier. Thanks for the 'check up from the neck up' today! Gayle So encouraging! I struggle with this daily….setting aside my To-do list and focusing on my four kids.

I so relate to you 100% I too get frustrated and feel like I don't want to do it. I am so focused on me when I should be focused on Jesus. I find my most frustrating time is when I am doing something, housework or cleaning, and they interrupt me. Most times they want to help, it takes twice as long and makes more to do when they help. They are 2 and 3. I have to ask God to help me in that also. Thank you for the scripture posts. I am going to meditate on them. Have a blessed day. Thank you so much for this wonderful post.
