Proud moment right here. This was me earlier after I worked out and in the background you can see the scroll I finally hung up today. We’ve been living here for 8 months and I haven’t hung anything. As I was trying to get things organized around the house I found this copy of the blessing that Sergio and I pray each day before he leaves for work and I decided it was time to put it on the wall.
I’ve been in a but of a rut. Struggling with my weight gain this pregnancy. Not working out. Not eating super healthy. Not embracing life as it is. Mostly, because I feel like I can’t handle it. I get easily overwhelmed and then have a hard time doing anything which then leads to me feeling even worse about myself. It’s a vicious cycle.
I’ve been trying harder to accept life as it is and trust that with God’s grace I CAN handle it. I CAN bring some order into the chaos because God is a God of order and HE wants to bring that into my life. It might not always look pretty and it definitely won’t be perfect but if we focus on doing our best in the moment...doing small things with great love, we experience so much more joy and peace.
