Lord, I confess that there are times I don’t know what to say or where to begin. There are days that the weight and responsibility of parenting alone feel so overwhelming. It hurts more when your children are hurting and their young hearts are broken and shattered. It’s hard when none of us have the words. We want to fix things but we cannot. We pray, dust ourselves off, and make one more step. Please keep us Jesus. There are days that I don’t want to get up because of nightmares and things the devil are trying to remind me of from my past. I’ve turned away from those things and am trying to live a righteous life. Please keep us in Your loving arms. Please hold onto us Lord and please do not let us go. Please open the right doors and close the wrong ones. We make mistakes and for that I ask for forgiveness. Please just lead us Jesus. This mom needs to know on a daily basis that You are carrying our children and me and their dad. It’s challenging but we have to trust You Jesus.
