balance

Am struggling with balance in my life right now. Having a very hard time being a good mom and a good employee and trying to take care of myself and, oh yeah, Jim would probably appreciate having a good wife. Yes I know if I just wasn't an evil working mom I wouldn't have these problems, but thanks to some debt created when I was staying home with the girls, currently that is not an option. (and I probably wasn't perfect back then, either) Blah.

Sounds to me like you are believing a lie. You, through the power of the Holy Spirit, are a great wife, mom, worker, etc. You're just discouraged! And, hey, who in Indiana would not be discouraged at this point of the year? I remember always feeling that up there towards the end of winter. When I just desperately needed to get out in the sun and feel the hope that one day it would warm up again!
So, friend, lift up your head. Gaze for a moment at the God who knows you- inside and out. I will be praying that He would give you a glimpse of hope and grant you energy and perseverance to complete all you want to complete this week. But also discernment to see what really needs to be completed and what will be just fine left alone.
You are an amazing woman, a child of God. Imperfect and sinful, yes, but loved through and through by the God who created you. and that ain't know lie! So start believing that one! :)
