I have a good friend who has a special needs child. Well, in fact I have a handful! But she said this to me the other day. She said that part of the reason she feels the Lord gave her this special child, was because she NEEDED that constant reminder to rely on the Lord. To pray and follow his direction!
This really resonated with me and my life. I think I need that constant reminder too.
I have a chronic problem. I believe that I can "do it all!" I feel like no one can care for my kids the way I can. I feel they are happiest with me. I try to be strong even when I should let others take some of the weight. I realize I have these problems. It was great for me to get that reminder that maybe things would be a little easier if I turned to the Saviour!
It has been a CRAZY week-and-a-half! Macy admitted to the hospital, than out of the hospital, appointments, school, ex-husband stress and than readmitted to the hospital! At this point it is looking like Macy with need another surgery to remove more of her colon. I am hoping and praying that is not the case... but I have learned to accept whatever needs to happen so she can come home and be healthy!
