Sacred

Sometimes I struggle being a mom. I may not do things exactly like other moms, and the constant judgement I feel sometimes can break my heart. Sometimes I think I may be in over my head. I only have one child and feel overwhelmed at times, it makes me terrified to think about what it will be like with 2 under 2 years old. My friend Casey is one of the most wonderful moms I know. She is 2 kids, and is about to have 3 under 2.5 years old. I admire how she is with her kids, and when I feel overwhelmed sometimes I think of how wonderful she does, even if she doesn't think she does. I am so often inspired by her.

I was driving in the car a few days ago with a screaming child in the back seat and to try to calm her I put in the only CD in my car I could find. I love Caedmon's Call, and used to listen to them all the time, but I haven't in a while. I popped in the CD and a song called "Sacred" came on. Such a wonderful son

g to listen to as a mom. My favorite line says, "teach me to run to You, like they run to me for every little thing". I thought I would share it with you, along with a picture of our newest addition! Here is the link to open in a new tab to listen to the song http://youtu.be/X0ZwR0tD1R8

Sacred

this house is a good mess

it's the proof of life

no way would I trade jobs

but it don't pay overtime

I'll get to the laundry

I don't know when

I'm saying a prayer tonight

cause tomorrow it s

tarts again

could it be that everything is sacred?

and all this time everything I've dreamed of

has been right before my eyes

the children are sleeping

but they're running through my mind

the sun makes them happy

and the music makes them unwind

my cup runneth over

and I worry about the stain

teach me to run to You

like they run to me for every little thing

when I forget to drink from you

I can feel the banks harden

Lord, make me like a stream

to feed the garden

wake up, little sleeper the Lord, God Almighty

made your Mama keeper

so rise and shine rise and shine

cause everything is sacred

and all this time

everything I've dreamed of

has been right before

my eyes
