Beautiful Morning

Last night there was a huge thunderstorm here and a hailstorm. There is pea-sized hail all over the grass this morning.

Isn't it funny how somedays life seems so impossible and then other mornings I wake up and it is like the first day of the rest of my life. So strange how that happens. Well today is one of those days when all my flaws and mistakes don't hinder my mind and I feel like I could change it all and be what I know I am supposed to be. The danger is that I need to trust God with these wonderful inspiring feelings. How many times have a tried to change or set out with huge plans--- IN MY OWN STRENGTH--- and by the end of the day the failure of my great plans is even more deflating than if I had woke up already deflated. I know that the only way for me to change is through the Lord and asking for his continual help and strength.

So I will set out with my grand plans for the day asking the Lord to help me and direct me. Ok time to get going to my inspired day!

I love this entry. This is why I love you so. You are real, you are transparent, you are my sweet Becca! Liam and I prayed for Weston today. I hope all went well.

I love your transparency too! I too struggle with trying in my own strength and then failing and when the new day starts I have such hope in myself, knowing I will probably have some successes but still have failures. I love your thoughts and relate.
Love you so! Mom
