Same. 

 

Or maybe I'm just tired. Weary. Worn out. 

 

Actually a little bit angry. Frustrated. Annoyed. Discouraged.

 

Basically, I cried almost all day yesterday. It wasn't much fun but I feel cleansed and better today. 

 

I wrestle constantly with wanting life to be a little easier - while knowing that God brought us to this difficult place for His perfect purposes. And because of that, I don't want life to be easier. I want to walk this with Him because it is amazing. I love what He's teaching me about my need for Him. I love raising so many children! But I wrestle, and I'm tired, and so I cry. Phew.

 

I re-read this and NEEEEEEDED it. Maybe you do too? --->

My family knows I need this. My friends and my husband and my big kids help make it happen. (With so many littles, it takes an actual village and together, we have to move a few mountains so I can go rest for a day.)

 

So next week, I'm going out of town for an entire day. I'll shop a little, sit at Panera and work for hours ALONE IN THE QUIET WITHOUT INTERUPTION, then I'll buy everything off the Costco shelves before heading home.

 

I'll come home refreshed and we'll have a month's supply of groceries (ha, most of it will be gone in a week). 

 

What do you to refresh and rest?
