Parenting Is Hard

Parenting is hard & beautiful. 

Recently the amazing and fabulous 

Ann Voskamp posted the following on Facebook: 

I loved it so and shared with several friends that I know are 

walking through some difficult & painful times with their children 

who they love so very much.  

I loved Ann's post because it's a reminder that

we are not alone and holy work IS hard work!

I created a printable of this quote for my friends who 

might need to print it out and keep it is a daily reminder. 

We Give Thanks

I don't know about you but this world seems to becoming darker 

and more sin filled each and every single day.  

My Facebook feed is full of heartache and pain filled people. 

I more often than ever before find myself saying.....Jesus come quickly. 

I read these words by Ann Voskamp this morning 

{I heart her so!} 

and was so touched by them. 

It was exactly the reminder I need and pray that it blesses you as it blessed me.

God's Mercies are New Every Morning

Reading this morning sweet Ann's post titled 

When Everything's Pressing In & You Would Like Some Answers

and thinking/praying for some sweet friends 

who are in the midst of some truly huge battles. 

 I so loved this quote by her. 

What a great reminder that His mercies are new every morning!

You are going to be OK

I absolutely adore Ann Voskamp. 

Her words are beautiful. 

I am blessed every single time I read her writing and

I often find myself returning to her blog posts and devotionals 

over and over again.  

This week I returned to one of my favorite of her entries

 Dear You.....a letter for the hard days 

to share with a sweet, struggling friend.  

I decided that I need a copy of her precious words to share

and though you too might need to be reminded

that there IS a plan and purpose 

and you are going to be okay.

{Several of you noticed an error in the 6th line- thank you!
I copied the quote straight from Ann's blog - so the mistake was 
in her original blog post. I've since fixed it and the link will take you to the corrected copy!}
