I cannot believe I just read this post. <br /><br />Last Sunday, I woke up feeling overwhelmed with the condition of my home. And I take it personally when the rest of the family doesn&#39;t see to &quot;care&quot; as much as I do. I was so overwhelmed...and starting to feel angry, frustrated. and like a failure too. Then I began to think of all the areas where I fail. Perhaps I am not teaching my kids all the right things. I mean..I felt like a failure in many many ways. then I felt like a failure because I had not been spending time with the Lord. or reading. and I am way too overweight and cant seem to get on the diet wagon. Over. Whelmed.<br /><br />I went to church, and tried to worship, but I could NOT focus. All I could think about was how awful my house looked, how personally I was taking it, and how I was a failure in every way. Every time I tried to pray, I&#39;d find myself obsessing on all this. <br /><br />After struggling in prayer...I felt Peace come over me. I felt like this was not a problem about my family, or my home, etc. It was just how I was viewing things. But I felt...happy. Peaceful. No explanation except that in my pleading during worship...God met me there. <br /><br />I did begin some planning to organize my home and life. And asked God to help me and he did. Its only been a week, but I asked him to help me be disciplined. I soooo lack discipline. But He helped me this week. One day at a time. <br /><br />Sorry for the loong post...but I Could not believe you wrote everything I felt last Sunday!!! It makes me feel better to know that these are probably common feelings for us stay at home moms. :)Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02910623858209472616noreply@blogger.com
