On the verge of tears…

Behind this mummy’s eyes and slight smile is a woman who’s simply tired—tired of the constant sickness making its way around our home and area. It’s been a tough few weeks, physically and emotionally draining.

Right now, hubby finally fell asleep for a few moments after a rough night and day…. and I’m sitting next to my little girl, holding her close because she asked me through tears, “Mummy, please don’t leave me. My tummy hurts.”
So here I am…
Dishes half done.
Laundry –  unfolded.
House upside down.
I haven’t bathed. I need to wee. But I’m holding it all in—literally and emotionally—because my baby needs me.

And honestly? I feel like a desperate little girl myself.
One who’s running into her Daddy’s arms crying, “Please help me.”
That’s me today—running to my Heavenly Father.
Because I can’t do this in my own strength. I just can’t.

But in the middle of this mess and weakness, I’m reminded of the One who promised to never leave me.
Jesus Christ—my Rock when everything else feels like it’s falling apart.

When I have no words left to pray, when all I can do is cry… Even my silent tears have become a prayer that He understands. Tonight, I lean on Him.
Not because I’m strong, but because He is!!!!

If you’re going through a hard moment too…
Do you have a faith that holds you?
Do you have someone who will pray for you when you can’t pray for yourself?

Lean in. Cry if you need to. Run to the One who never turns you away.
He’s listening. He’s holding you. Just like I’m holding my little girl.

And guess what…. We’re gonna make it through…. As I know I have people praying for me….. I’m praying for you!!!
