Faithful Dependence....

Have you ever had one of those days when nothing seems to be going right and everything you do just turns out flopping and turning into goop? Well you can say that those days have been more, rather than, less of my days throughout the last 5 years of my life. I am a single mother of a gorgeous 4 almost 5 year old who loves life with every breath she takes into her lungs. She is always happy and never feels the stress of not knowing where her next meal was coming from. Myself on the other hand has felt that stress more than a few times! Working long hours just trying to break even and trying to balance spending the time you need at work to make the money you need to survive, and spending the time you need at home to build the bond you need to have with your daughter. Still, all the while wondering which one you were sacrificing for the other.
Those days seem to come without end and without rest and without unending fear.......but then you find yourself standing in the check out line at the grocery store and as you watch the woman in front of you count out her pennies just to by a loaf of bread you find yourself reserved in a moment of wonder and revelation. Next thing you know you are watching her hand that one loaf of bread over to the 5 fighting children that surround her legs like hungry chicks to their mother hen......and you ask yourself, why.
Why, do I fear? Why, do I stress? Why, do I toss and turn in bed at night wondering how I am going to buy my daughter's lunch-able for her school lunch and those 5 children are fighting over bread?
For every day that is consumed with wonder there will be a day found full of revelation, and for every day of revelation there will be a day filled with Faithful Dependence.

So how was your day today?
