His Love

It's only Monday and this week has already been hard!!

Our kids argue...ALOT!!! They are both growing up :(  They have issues with friends, issues with school work and the list goes on. I know the teenage years are going to be a blast!!

Sometimes it brings out the worst in us as parents and that makes my heart hurt!! As I was driving in to work this morning a thought crossed my mind. As hard as it has been lately, I wouldn't trade my kids for anything in this world. They are priceless treasures entrusted to us by our Lord. Sometimes I think He has a lot more faith in me than I deserve.

It makes me think how I must break His heart daily with my words and actions. I am not a perfect child of God but He loves me anyway. I will never be perfect and neither will my kids but He loves us anyway!! I am so thankful for His amazing grace!! I don't deserve it but He gives it freely. I pray I can give grace to my kids like He has given to me.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:7-10
