Sometimes I feel a bit of resentment when I don't get a weekend. My DH gets to lay around all weekend, but I still have to work. Its definitely lame that this bothers me. By God's mercy, I'll get over it!
Why is it so difficult for me to get the heck off the computer and do my housework?
1 Chronicles 16:11 tells me to commit to my prayer rule and to deliberately meet the Lord by praying the Hours.
1 Peter 5:8 warns me to be vigilant, especially in prayer, because Satan IS out to destroy me.
I am going to pray and ask for strength to thrive, not just survive, in my vocation as a wife and mother.
The difficult thing that seems to catch me constantly off guard is my martyr complex. I so need to get over myself. And when I really sit down and think about how self-obsessed I am, I become more and more disturbed.
James 1:12 tells me to endure temptation.
I am determined to get myself and my children off the computer!!
Just so you know, Jodie, you're on my prayer list.
