Everyone has struggles. If someone says that they are not struggling they are lying. We all have moments when we don't feel up to par. Moments when we feel like nothing we do is right and we are useless. If we were perfect at everything, what would be the fun in that? What life lessons would we learn? My most recent struggle is with simply being good enough. Am I a good enough mom? Am I a good enough wife? Am I a good enough Christian? Am I a good enough friend? There are many different answers to those questions that make me feel like I am failing. My son is nearly always late for school and I yell at him because he doesn't seem to "get it" when I tell him to hurry. My infant has decided that he wants to wean when he is not even a year old. I get irritated with my husband over trivial things and jump to conclusions. My house is a disaster area and it seems like every step forward is met with 4 steps back. I have more questions about my faith than I have answers. I haven't seen my best friends in person in months due to various reasons. I literally hate talking to people on the phone & don't even get me started on answering text messages. Do people really message someone back? I tend to answer the message in my head and completely forget to "send" it. I have all of these short comings and questions. I know that I have a purpose and I'm still trying to figure out exactly what that purpose is. I know that God has a reason for me & I'm trying to find that reason. What is my ministry? Where is my mission field? How can I serve him? These are all questions that I struggle with & I'm trying to find the answers....
