One of Those Weeks

It is one of THOSE weeks. You know the kind ... where you have play practice until 6:00 three nights out of five. Where you have to have 16 parent teacher conferences. Where you have to go to a football game you really don't want to go to. And, where you haven't been to the grocery store in quite awhile. And, where your family doesn't think you slapping string cheese on the table amounts to a meal.

Yup, one of those weeks.

And, in the midst of it, I am struggling a bit. Struggling with letting go of something that is bothering me. Struggling to let go of something that is causing me to lose sight of what is important. Struggling to let go of something that really has it's hold on me. Just plain struggling.

And, the truth of it ... I know I need to let it go. And, I am really trying to be the bigger person. But, man, is it hard.

That is where your flesh wants to take over when you should let Christ have the reins.

And, I want Him to have the reins. I want Him to be in control. I want to know that He is present even in my disappointments.

And that is where I am ... trying to turn one of those weeks into one of His weeks.
