When life gives you lemons make lemonade or something like that. Boy today when I got up I just wanted to crawl back in bed. Just seems like the weight of the world was on my shoulders. Between kids health issues and academic struggles, what do I want to do with my life head battles, cant find the right curtains, and who drank all the milk - I had had enough !!! The good news is that I just kept one foot in front of the other - keeping my eye on the prize - a haircut and color with dear Laura. Nothing like a few blond highlights and a snazzy cut to bring me back around. Don't you just wish everyday your hair looked freshly cut and styled just right ? Tomorrow it will go back to the same mop of curls no matter how much gel,mouse, lotion, anti-frizz, hairspray, root lifter, straightener, etc I put in and on it. Can anyone relate ? But does it really matter ?
Anyways .the good news is that one minute, one hour and one day at a time we can get through the days that feels like tornado's and the life situations that feel hopeless.
Friends, a higher power, and God can be our sources for hope, encouragement, compassion, endurance, strength and renewal. We are Gods masterpieces. He sees our beauty from the inside, man sees it from the outside. No amount of gel, spray, or highlights will perfect us in the worlds view of what is supposed to be important and significant. Life truly is amazing when we can believe that we are truly loved and lovable. With that knowledge buried deep in our hearts..it will be so easy to make lemonade out of the lemons life has given us.
