the invisible woman

Please tell me you've been here too? Where you are just the woman who is constantly feeding someone, the woman who tries to keep her house clean, the woman who tries to teach her kids (everything, abc's, closing the toilet lid, loving God, loving your siblings, etc), the woman who grocery shops, menu plans, empties the dishwasher, the boo boo kisser, the you-name-it-I-do-it????

Okay, obviously the moms do a lot, and most women I know, do it so well. With a smile, and seeming to have it all balanced. Me? Not so much. I am not balanced, and half the time (okay, most the time) I'm frazzled and grumpy.

I read this today, and oh my goodness. It's what I needed to read today.

"No set of circumstances could ever isolate you from My loving Presence. Not only do I see you always; I see you as a redeemed spirit, gloriously radiant in My righteousness. That is why I take great delight in you and rejoice over you with singing!" From Jesus Calling by Sarah Young

Amen? Amen! God SEES ME! Not the frazzled woman trying to keep everyone safe and fed. He sees me as a "redeemed spirit, gloriously radiant in (His) righteousness". Thank you, Jesus!
