We are working today on preparing the kids bedrooms for when Grammy and Grampy come to visit for Thanksgiving. I am seeing the piles of stuff that has once again accumulated and my emotions are flying...
~ I am frustrated, wishing that our children were more responsible
about taking care of their stuff.
~ I am worried, because as we have been cleaning out, we have created
a bigger mess in the process and it feels like we will never get finished.
~ I am embarrassed, by the amount of "stuff" we have... even though we
try to live a life of simplicity. I can see where we need to keep paring back.
~ I am hopeful, that based on the amount of work accomplished today
that we will ALL work harder to keep things better organized so days like
this will be easier in the future.
~ I am overwhelmed, by God's provision to meet our needs and then some.
~ I am excited, to bless others with "new to them" stuff... one persons
clutter is another persons treasure.
~ I am determined, to instill a higher level of good stewardship
in our home.
~ I am sorry, to my family for my poor attitude through much of this day.
I was so concerned about getting things done that I failed to maintain
my temper and allowed my "angry mom" to take over.
~ I am blessed, because I am forgiven.
~ I am thankful, for the opportunity to be humbled.
~ Amen
