with heart pounding OUT-OF-MY-CHEST
with every beat as though it were SHOUTING AT ME
COME. HOME. AND. MOTHER. YOUR. CHILDREN!
THE CHILDREN YOU BEGGED ME FOR…

HE spoke.
I listened.
obedience.
does it mean I am any less scared??
or do I question any less??
am I doing this right?
does my parenting please you Lord?
are they listening?
should I have handled that differently?
was I loving?
am I forgiving?
quite frankly
I question myself all day long
which keeps me needy of HIM
which is
THE
WHOLE
IDEA!
He wants me to NEED HIM more everyday.
every moment
and I do
because I want to live
BRAVE!

STOP!
I want to LIVE BRAVE! Don’t you??
Are you feeling prompted to take a step of faith?
To walk into unknown waters?
Let me encourage you.
He is faithful.
Blessings,
Karmen
