Life Lesson #4 – Who are you?

I am a mother of two precious boys. My job is to provide a roof over their heads, put food in their belly’s, teach them the love of Jesus, direct them down the right path in the hopes that they will remain on that right path (if they choose to veer to the right or the left help them back onto the straight and narrow path), show them love and support. My job will never be done with them. Each day is precious being a mother. Of course there are moments when you want to explode on them but don’t because it does no one any good. Take a time out, breath in, and move on. I love my boys with all my heart and I let them know everyday that I love with.

I am a friend ~ I so love my girl times. Getting together to talk about anything and everything, enjoying each other’s company, speaking into each other’s life, going shopping, having coffee, a glass of wine, and watching a movie. Girlfriends are priceless ~ there is never a dull moment whether it is happy ones or sad ones – there is always something going on.

I am a daughter ~ unfortunately; my mother never took the time to really see who I was and how precious of a daughter she had. My dad was not in the picture during my up bringing and now that I am in his life he still chooses to not be completely involved. The sad thing is that it is there loss. I am a precious daughter full of love and compassion. This is why it is so important for me that my boys know just how much I love them and how important family really is. I do have a dad that thinks the world of me and he is in my life everyday. Without him being in my life I would not be the women I am today and would not be where I am today. Thank you Jesus!

I am an employee ~ I love my job and I am good at what I do. I give a 100% to my duties and then some. I am always willing to lead a helping hand. I work for an amazing company called Scentsy. The owners are amazing and love their employees deeply. God really blessed me with a great job.

The lady is the story we read this past week was not happy with her life. He heart’s desire was elsewhere and her love for life was dying where she was. We all have desires – God gave us those desires.

Psalms 37:4 ~
The desires God placed in your heart were put there for a reason, they reveal the secret of who you really are and the life you are meant to live.

My desire as a little girl was to be a mommy. I wanted my children to know how much they were loved and that I was always going to be there for them. I never had that as a child and I new in my heart that was not right. A child yearns for love and attention. I wanted to have a happy family. Unfortunately I hit some rough patches but I have bounced back and I do have that happy family. Even though things did not work out as I thought they would, things did work out as God knew they would. For the first time in my life I am happier then I have ever been just where I am.
