A number of years ago
As a mother of teenagers, I felt like I no longer could go on. We were being challenged on everything at each turn of the road. The happy motherhood I dreamed about was being challenged by almost grown but not so smart adult in our home.
I can still remember where I was when the song took on a new meaning for me. I was so discouraged and tired of trying. My husband stopped at subway to get us some sandwiches. I stayed in the car listening and rewinding the tape for this song. I kept calling out to God to intercede as I felt like I was loosing the battle.
God met me there as traffic went whizzing by and cars pulling into parking lot. I wasn't given any answers but the peace that flooded that vehicle made a change in my outlook.
Today that teenager is a parent and looks back and remembers our possible frustration. Now seeking us to pray for difficult situations. God was good then and still is .
