Today I met a parent that was a blessing to me. She has two children and they have been a handful to raise for different reasons. Even though it has been a challenge she stayed with it and has seen her kids graduate from high school.
She reminded me that children are a blessing in life. The Bible tells us that "Children are a blessing from the Lord." (Psalm 127:3) When I think of the challenges I go through with my kids I still see them to be a blessing from the Lord.
That doesn't mean that I don't get frustrated with them. What it does mean is that no matter what they may do both good and bad I am blessed. When I look into their eyes I see potential, childhood laughter and great joy.
Today I started the day down because of things that were going on in my life with my children. Late tonight I see great joy even though the challenge hasn't changed. Thank you to this parent that blessed me with her committment and joy she finds with her kids.
