I know the next several months will be stressful. I never thought I'd be in this position. I never really thought this "day" would come. But, it's here and I must deal with it.
Today was a little harder, and there was a moment when I thought, "What have I gotten myself into? I don't know if I can do this." Then I remembered to pray.
Honestly, I think that is what helped me throughout the day. The prayer for strength, patience, and peace. I'm praying for Mom too, because I know this is a stressful for her as well (maybe not so much now, but there is some for sure).
I know I'm doing the right thing. But sometimes I get scared.
Scared of being overwhelmed with the situation.
Scared of not being able to handle things.
Scared of the changes that are going to take place.
The Bible tells me to trust in the Lord, and I do. I know He's got this whole thing in His hand and is in control. I know He will give me the strength I need to deal with all of this. I know He can, and will, comfort me. I just need to remember that and turn to Him during all of this.
It's not going to be easy by any stretch of the imagination, but I can do this - "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
