“Beep!
Beep! Beep!” My alarm clock blares at an ungodly hour,
sometimes even before the sun itself is awake, demanding that I leave the brief
escape of sleep in order to face the responsibilities of the day ahead. Even before my eyes crack open and my feet
find the floor, my mind is already racing ahead to the list of tasks before me,
a list that I know before I even start is way too long to complete. A mother’s life is naturally busy on any
given day, but add in the stress of having a child in the hospital, and the
responsibilities soon become overwhelming, almost paralyzing.
My voice says, “How can I possibly do this?! It’s too difficult!”
God’s voice says, “Is anything too hard for the
Lord?” (Genesis 18:14)
