It is a brand new day
(Originally published by Nattie on June 12, 2006)
It is a brand new day with no mistakes in it. Yet. But the kids are back from their dad's so I'm sure that mistakes are in the making. There are days when my parenting seems to be one big mistake, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
No matter how painful the last eight years have been and no matter how hard the next 10 plus plus may be, I am so glad for them. Do you know why? I have learned so much about the height, the width and the depth of God's love for us through parenting.
God has no limits. We have limits, but God...our Abba, Father. Our Daddy has no limits. He does not tire. He does not grow weary.
Who would you rather have pick you up when you skin your knee? The limited earthly parent who's had a bad day or the unlimited God who knows no bounds?
How great is our God! His mercies endure forever!
