Reality

Sometimes it's hard to know what is reality. When I awaken from a world of dreams into the world I live, my mind is clouded with mixed feelings: stirring dreams from the night before, good and bad memories from the days past and determined ambition for the day ahead. Some days life feels like a dream and it is hard to get a grasp on reality. Maybe it is blurry from a sleep-deprived mom of a 2-year old who still wakes up 2, 3 or 4 times throughout the night; Maybe it is drained from a mom of 3 active, strong-willed children; Maybe it is abandoned from a woman who thinks too much and longs for simplicity, order and help. The only reality that is consistent is God. I hold onto my Faith in this, that God is in control of my life. He is my reality. "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me." Philippians 1:21-22.
