God Answers

I was putting EG down for her little morning cat nap. I am a little weepy this morning because I haven't had a night's sleep in four days. The house is a wreck. Toys everywhere, dinner dishes still in the sink, a lot going on. I had already yelled at the kids and it was only 8:45 AM. My first instinct was to call daddy. "Please come home." But I knew what the answer would be so I resisted the temptation. So, I am putting EG down and every morning I read to her from my "Power of a Praying Parent" calendar. Sometimes it has inspiring ideas, sometimes it has scripture. This morning, with tears in my eyes I said "God, please speak to me. Please help me." And then I read the calendar. This is what He said, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you." Isaiah 43:2. I smiled, I hugged EG, I immediately asked forgiveness from my children. I am going to make it today . . .
