Sometimes, in our walk through life, we get so caught up in the details we forget to step back and remember the big picture. I'm reminded of this often by my youngest son C. He'll look at the sky and say "Look at God's painting"...
When I look at that kind of beauty and think of the creator of that kind of beauty, my everyday struggles seem menial.
I was reminded of who I should always be focusing on - Him - and who I shouldn't be focusing on - me. As I wondered how to be the wife and mom that I should be I realized that God created me to be the exact wife and mom my husband and kids need. I need to stop looking for a worldly picture of what I think I should be and just be who God calls me to be. Simple huh? Sometimes all we need to do is look up ...
God is such a great artist - Thank you God for leading C to remind me of who and what needs focus.

ReplyDeleteI hope He continues to paints your skies with such awesomeness.
...and thanks once more for words that I could use just now.
