Not every day being a mommy is great. Some days are very, very hard. When you become a mom, there is no room for selfishness, not matter how you're feeling. The show must go on and I have people relying on me.
Today I'm feeling drained, depleted, tired and completely unaccomplished this week and guilty for feeling this way when I have so much to be grateful for and so many blessings. I haven't gotten hardly a thing done that I had hoped to at the first of the week. I have a dirty house, dirty clothes, dirty bedding and piles of work to do and I would love nothing more then to crawl back in bed for the day and do nothing. Too bad that's not an option. Do I really matter and make a difference in any way? The answer is yes; I do to my kids and my husband and especially to God right now and that's reason enough for me to keep pressing forward when I feel this way. I'm clinging to these bible verses right now because yes, they even apply to mom's/housewifes:
Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. ~ Galatians 6:9
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, ~Colossians 3:23
