Be Still and Know...

What a day it has been! The day started off great. I have a deal going with the kids that if they get up when I call them to in the mornings and get dressed on their own I will give them a dollar a day! I know your saying they should be doing that anyway, well they are not. Jesse is the hardest to wake up in the morning so this will be quiet an accomplishment for him. They both did great this morning and we were on time to BKK. Everything was going good I drove to work, for those that don't know I have to drive and hour to work everyday. I enjoy listening to my praise music in the mornings and talking to God. Well, this morning was good and by the time I got to work I was ready to face the day, so I thought! Isn't it just horrible when you walk into the workplace and it's like you ran right smack dab into the DEVIL himself. Well, that's what happened to me this morning and it happens alot of mornings for me lately. It is ok tho because I have found myself saying alot lately "if God is for me who can be against me". I made it through the day and of course the day got better as it went by. I listen to 90.9 radio station in my room at work it's a christian radio station out of Brewton, I believe. They play alot of contempory music. So, as the day ended and I headed out to my car just ready to get away from the day. I sat down turned the key in the ignition and the song playing was "Be still and know that I am God".... I was just like ok God is that you? I listened to my praise music on the way home and enjoyed my time with God. Why is it that we get so caught up in LIFE that we do not take or make time for him? We make time for everything else we do? You know we have a huge responsibilty as moms. Mother's Day is coming up on Sunday and I believe we as moms definitley deserve praise! We've got to have our life somewhat straight, in order to direct our children. Believe me they watch us daily and do not mind telling you when you've done wrong! How can we guide our children to live a christian life when we are not doing it ourself? Yes, I'm talking to myself too! It is my prayer that I will be in the very center of God's will for my life and nothing else. It is certainly NO fun when you out of his will. So, I just want to encourage all moms out there to remember your kids are watching you! Sorry I had to vent tonight! I'm on call tonight and I am just resting at home. Hope each of you have a great night and a great day tommorrow!
