Today was one of those days where I had much to accomplish, and a lot of my tasks were started but remained unfinished. To put it a better way, I was ecstatic to replace two light bulbs and realize that something had been completed:) Our little guy was anti- naps today, so my day was pretty much anti-accomplishment (as far as the TO-DO list goes.)
But today I was reminded of how grateful I am to have a Father in Heaven who truly loves me and knows me. He is aware of this mother of a young child and He constantly meets her needs. He hears my prayers and my pleadings for help and peace, for motivation and focus, and for knowledge of how to raise one of His children. I find myself having several conversations with my Father in Heaven daily, over the little and big things that I just can't figure out or don't know how to do or that I don't want to do, but know that I should do. Some people might find it odd to talk to God about my day throughout my day, but I don't. I know that He wants to hear from me and from all of us. He is the perfect Parent and knows all, so to me it only makes sense to turn to Him.
I know that God loves us. He weeps with us when we suffer and rejoices when we do what is right. He wants to communicate with us, and we can communicate with Him through sincere prayer.
I know that He has given us this experience on the earth so we can learn and grow. I know that we can show our love for Him through our choices and our obedience to His commandments.
I am humbly grateful for my kind and wise Father in Heaven.
