SO, that resulted in a 15 yr old meltdown, and then a 42 yr old Mom meltdown, (bc you hate to be the cause of their pain! Life is painful enough!) Anyway, God gave us BOTH grace and all got turned around...but, it all came out of my tendency to want things at a certain standard. I'm usually pretty tuned into when I am being unrealistic, but, this time, I flunked!<BR/><BR/>I guess, I said all this to say that because I do this to myself, that means I will naturally tend to want to impose that on my children, and I strive to NOT do that!<BR/><BR/>SO, I am ready for your wisdom, Obi-Wan! Teach me!<BR/><BR/>xoxox,<BR/>MariaShe Rose Uphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04468898873508947166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34025405.post-83666374624507495232008-03-11T18:22:00.000-04:002008-03-11T18:22:00.000-04:00This post reminded me of the article in Joyce Meye...This post reminded me of the article in Joyce Meyer's mag this month. How can we love others if we don't first love ourselves. <BR/>I know I struggle with it and thinking about how we need to do everything so well but all we are called to do is love God and others. But first we must know that we are God's special child and even more special to Him than our children are to us.<BR/>It's hard to imagine that kind of love.<BR/>Blessings,<BR/>Debbie aka The Real World Martha(S)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34025405.post-14274554864203142812008-03-11T17:26:00.000-04:002008-03-11T17:26:00.000-04:00But I want to be perfect in practically every way!...But I want to be perfect in practically every way!!!
