Rough Waters

Today was one of those days that make this homeschool mom say, 

"Where did I put that phone number to the public school?" while pretending to search through papers on the desk.

The idea is that the child straightens up. It used to work! But I don't think my kids buy it anymore.

Yes, I was calling out for mercy. "I just can't deal with this child anymore, Lord."
 
Then I came across this post on Facebook. 

Aaahh. Purpose renewed.

I know it was no accident.

God is here. 

He hasn't forsaken me...

...Or the calling he placed on my heart.

“I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy. Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.” Psalm 116:1-2 NIV

The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Deuteronomy 31:7-9
