When life gets too hard to stand...kneel

I have gone through many moments in my life where i have just fallen to my kneels from lack of strength to stand. Many of us can relate to having a perfectly good day and one moment in that day can sweep through and ruin it. i've found that i dont HAVE to dwell on what hurts or is bothering me, yes it's hard not to but just think about it, is worrying, stressing, crying, getting angry, ect.. are any of those things gonna change the situation? most of the time, no. and the moments we spend doing all of that, are moment wasted that could have been full of smiles and happiness.

I have recently hit a lot of bumps in the road, some bumps feel more like mountains, and yes i will cry, but there is never a time where i dont think of my heavenly father, and how he is always there to pick me up if i so much as call his name with a humble heart and pure intent. i have always been one that "appears strong" but inside it's like a battle field and storm of emotions.

I look at my children everyday and want the best for them, i want them to grow up happy and FEEL loved by their mother and father, i want to help them achieve all their wildest dreams and be like their best friend. it's amazing to me how when i feel so brutally torn, emotionally, my little two year old comes up to me out of the blue and just gives me a hug and kisses me and says "i love you mamma", to me it's not only love from my daughter but like divine intervention from god, letting me know things are gonna be ok and sending love to me so i can keep on putting my shoulder to the wheel and move along. my daughter would never SEE when i am troubled because i never let my children see that. but even just seeing their smiles brings warmth to my heart. :)

to all of you who may be hurting today or just having a downer day, remember that you ARE loved, and  there is someone out there ready to show that love for you, you are capable of more than you know, dont let these small (yet seem so big right now) moments get you down, notice all the blessings in your life, the sun that shines every day, the air you have to breathe, your friends and family, your freedom!, ect.. we have so much to be greatful for, so i urge you to take the time in the moments when life seems to hard to stand, to count all your blessings and you will feel a little better.
Keep putting your shoulder to the wheel and push along. we will be rewarded for all our hard efforts, you are worth more than you give yourself credit for, and never stop spreading the love and happiness of life. :)

Lots of love and encouragement, if i could i would be your crutch :)
