The title describes how I have been feeling for the past month+. Starting homeschooling without much organization, always feeling like I haven't had enough sleep {because I really don't}, dealing with the issues that go along with having elderly parents, starting a new home business- with all the fears, expenses & new things to learn that go along with THAT, Hubby working extra hours, a constant backache, the repentant prodigal son who is stuck in Texas indefinitely{and very homesick, I might add!}, my 91-year-old dad {whom we thought was saved for close to 60 years} says now that the Bible is not true and he just can't believe it, and don't forget the two-year-old and her campaign to gain full control of the house- particularly her MOTHER.... I believe it all adds up to a nervous breakdown!!!
My Pastor's wife likes to share the verse, "when my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the Rock that is higher than I." Psalm 61:2 This verse has meant a lot to me these last several weeks. Whenever I start feeling like crawling in a hole is the only solution, I remember this verse. It is really the only relief I have. I go to the Rock and He refreshes me and fills me with His love. He gives comfort and peace. I am so thankful for my relationship with my Savior. I don't know how an unbeliever could get through all this stress.
"Thank You, Father, for the love and strength which only YOU can give! I am so thankful for what You have done for me on the cross, and in my life. Help me to just lean on You all the time!"
P.S. I do have a few pictures to share, but the computer is not accepting my memory card... *sigh* just one more thing...
