It is in the struggle that we are made holy.
My spiritual director reminds me of this regularly.
These are truly words to live by. They are words that sustain me MANY days.

But, I hate that they are so true.
Yes, no truer words spoken. But we must always remember that HE offers us grace to help us with our struggles...that what is broken can only be made whole through HIM.

It seems a common theme when we read about the lives of the saints, that they struggled, each in their own way. and yet they made it, and that gives us all hope. Motherhood too is santifying, as I'm learning. It's hard, yet it brings us closer to holiness. I'll pray for you. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you both for your prayers. Nothing too major is happening-- just life and one of those days when everything feels like struggle- parenthood, home schooling, house keeping, etc....
ReplyDeleteIt is all good in the eyes of the Lord though, as long as we stayed focused on Him, right?
