When Life Gets Lifelike

I’ve become a bit prolific lately.

I tend to do that when life gets very...lifelike.

And it has recently.

I’m working through a few things, one of which is emotional regulation.

Another of which is giving everything over to Jesus, no matter what my emotions try to tell me.

I sometimes don’t know if I’m a good mother. I facilitate, I love deeply, I want the best and narrow way to Jesus for my daughter.

But I’m struggling with a lot of hurt and not being able to comprehend the particular tests and trials God is curating for my benefit.

And still. He is good. He loves me. He loves my daughter. And nothing can separate us from His almighty Hand.
