Im a morning person. The test really begins around noon.

Up before baby. I can't believe how well she's sleeping. I definitely got eight hours of rest last night.

Got a second wind and am finishing the afternoon strong thanks to the Lord.

Did many things on the to do list. I will force myself to relax

Finally got rest. Its a beautiful challenge to be fully present with a baby and treasure connection with her

I hate my own weakness. Why can't I simply be strong for my husband. My family? Continuing in the Word is my only hope

My dream is simplicity, nature, and walking in a country home.

I cried out to God and He helped me. All praise belongs to Him. I will carry on in God's strength

Frustrated

Thank you for your prayers. This response, I think is helpful. Paul did tell others he prayed for them as an encouragement.

I'm sorry, brother. If theres something you need, Im willing to help if I can.

When I want inspiration for continuing to do good, I find motivation content for men very helpful. The west has a very indulgent feelings-driven culture. It encourages women especially to live by their feelings. I don't always feel like serving my family. I will do it anyway. Self-care and...

Sometimes I don't feel like doing the right thing any more. But if I try to get mine on earth, I won't get it in heaven. Service and sacrifice here is the only correct option. Im thankful my husband took over baby duty last night because he has today off. I do feel better but the enemy's...

Thanks for being concerned. I got a couple naps in today. The baking and simmer pot lifted my spirits. It was for me too. Ive gone the route of trying to make up for the me stuff Im not getting. It just made me angry and sorry for myself. This is a season where I can either let being tired be...

Would my prayers lose value if I never told others I prayed for them? If God got the glory and I got none would that hurt somehow? If I don't post about what I do on Facebook, does that mean Im not doing anything? Do I need selfies to be beautiful? Who's attention do I need? If God wants us...

Pencil scratching the middle pages of a journal Breathing in the scented candle air Moments passing like grains of sand through an hourglass The crunch of autumn leaves underfoot Conversations on the old couch Warm air wafting through vents Family coming in and out at leisure Velvet...

Even though Im tired, I don't want to make today about me. I love that my teenage sister in law hangs out with us so I am baking bread, keeping the kitchen clean, making a fragrant simmer pot, and baking chocolate chip cookies from scratch.

Am interested in very small scale homesteading. Id like to grow some vegetables next year. Maybe onions.

Tomorrow, I will try a simmer pot. Apparently to make your home smell like fall, you simmer orange peels, apple slices, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon sticks in water. Im also going to try chocolate chip cookies from scratch again.

Sometimes you have to let emotions blow over like a storm.
