Struggling...

Struggling to be a "new parent" today. Trying to disciple and lead... trying to be the mom God wants me to be...

But feeling like everything is against me. Feeling like there is conflict and anger and disrespect coming from every corner... out of every little mouth that can speak.

Trying to find the balance between love and discipline... between joy and correction.... is there even a balance? Is there even a separation? Should there be?

Feeling at a loss at what to do and trying to turn to Jesus.

Finding comfort in these words...

Christ at the end of the cross can upend whole worlds... and everything lands aright.

Feeling like my world is upended.... but being thankful that when it lands... everything (with God's grace) will be aright.
