Holy Struggle

In a perfect world, I would live God's truth daily being an example of a Christian wife and mom in relationship with Jesus.  Attend church weekly, host bible study, serve in local outreach ministry, lead daily devotions with my children on a consistent basis.  Instead I live in a fallen world.  I need more Jesus daily.  I sleep-in and miss church, yet go for a weekly hike and experience God's creation.  I am a bible study drop out due to my calling as wife and mother that has me on my knees praying daily.  I volunteer along side my children at a youth ranch praying for troubled children as I water horses.  Daily devotions happen over a slow breakfast as we connect and share how Jesus is working in our lives.  The Christian life I am walking doesn't fit perfectly in the holy box.  It is messy.
