Shhhh~What we don't talk about

shhhhh

I know we don't usually talk about this

sort of stuff.

But,

I am a rebel,

So, I want to talk about some things

that we shy away from discussing.

maybe we talk about this stuff

 with our

best girlfriends, or our hubby's.

But,

it's stuff I don't like to talk about.

Do you ever feel inadequate? I don't like that word.

But, it describes how I have been felling lately.

Inadequate...Ugh

As a mom, a person, a wife.

I am hard on myself, this I know to be true.

Are you?

I am usually the cheerleader,

lifting others up.

But, lately

I have been stressed, and it is more than that..

I am in a place in my life that I have

never been. I am raising teenagers, which I

have never done.

I believe I am in menopause.

Ouch!

I feel crazy at times.

I am feeling overwhelmed,

tired, grumpy.

I feel like if I have one more hot flash,

I will die.

Don't get me wrong...

I love being a mom. Love it!

I Love being Nathan's wife.

I love life.

But,

I feel like I am failing most days and it stinks.

Does anyone else feel this way?

Is this the stuff we are not supposed to talk about?

I feel like crying some days.

I feel like screaming some days.

I pray a lot...

I have been on my knees even more lately.

I know that through trials,

God makes us stronger.

He makes us wiser,

more compassionate, more willing to yield to Him.

 

Surley goodness and mercy shall follow me

all the days of my life: and I will

dwell in the house of  the Lord for ever.

Psalm 23:6

 

Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift my soul.

O my God, I trust in thee:

let me not be ashamed. let Not

mine enemies triumph over me.

Psalms 25:1-2

 

I pray you have peace today and know

God's love for you no matter

what you may face today!
