Reminders

Being a parent can be challenging at times. Our two are young, three and two, and they can be physically, mentally, emotionally challenging. They like to test their boundaries A LOT. And, I know that this will continue through adolescence, teenage years, and even until the day I die. We've all done it. Why should they be any different?

Even with all the challenges, there is nothing like raising children. Even on those days that they are constantly pushing the limits, they do things that make you laugh and smile and cherish the moment. I have memories now that will be with me forever, memories that, when recalled, make me smile.

Today's word is Psalm 103:5, NLT, which reads, "He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle's."

GOD has certainly filled my life with good things. Trish and the kids are the greatest! I could not imagine that anyone has been blessed more than I have. He has also given us good health, a home, food to eat, all the necessities and many of the niceties. He has indeed filled our lives with good things.

Because of His great blessings, when I look around at what we have and look back at what He has done, I am renewed and recharged to keep on keeping on. The many joys of raising children far outweighs the challenges. What great reminders GOD gives me.

Be Blessed,
