Reflection Question from By the Brook:
Loving God with our mind is often the hardest territory to surrender for us special-needs mommas. Our thoughts are often our worst enemy. Are there any chronic thoughts that you need to take a moment to surrender to him? As you lay those thoughts and worries down on the altar, replace those thoughts with “I Love You, God.”
Breath Prayer
Inhale:
I love you with every part of me.
Exhale:
Because you already love every part of me.
