My oldest struggles with bad dreams. She wakes up often with them.
It's been a rough week because she has been up every night with them.
That means we have lost sleep and we are very tired. It's hard to be a Mom filled with the Fruit of The Spirit each day when I feel like I am back in the days of life with a new born. God has given me grace in this. My flesh wants a method of "what to do."
I know that God has the method I need. The Gospel. I have hope that this is just where God wants her and just what God is using to show her more of Himself. The Gospel is what this sleepy Mom needs to remember as I stumble to her room each night pointing her thoughts to Christ when I want to just tell her to go to sleep.
Thank You Lord for pricking my heart this morning with the truth that You are the answer to everything. May the Gospel go forth and shine in our hearts.

Thanks, Kelly! I needed this today. Been waking up around 1-2am and not being able to sleep again til about the time mr. early riser (Timothy) wakes up. God, our lives are Yours; do what you will and may we always seek You and not our own way! <3 <3
