How Can I?

Lately I have been wondering a lot of "How Can I's"? How can I possibly stagger through another day with my baby getting four teeth at once? How can I not "speak loudly" to my children and use calm, reassuring words? How can I be understanding with my husband when his back is hurting so much? How can I show my children the love of Jesus when I feel so inadequate?

It never ceases to amaze me the still small voice that beckons me onward. That, as I stand doing the dishes for what seems the millionth time, I can hear the whisper of Jesus in my ear. Verses and songs seem to reach out at these times and minister through the "How Can I's" of the day. In EVERY season HE NEVER LEAVES ME ALONE! 
 "Great is thy faithfulness!"

Last Sunday the current four year olds decided to play in the tote filled with water after Hurricane Irene. After watching them for a bit I see them run around the shed. This is my response...

Get your naked butts in here to go to the bathroom!!!!

Seriously?!? We do not live without a toilet and you do know how to use it. Their response?

But that means we have to come THE WHOLE WAY IN THE HOUSE!

I had no idea coming into the house was such a hardship! :)  I am also sure that our neighbors can get quite a show at times! Bless their hearts!

 

Blessings on your week and please keep the Holland family in your prayers!
