acknowledge

Daily chores come and go,
it's easy to get lost in the cycles,
the everyday routines,
and mundane daily repeat.

I tend to get wrapped so tight into my routine. 
Mondays - laundry and new sheets for all the beds.
Tuesdays - house-keeping and Pauly plays with play dough or paints
Wednesdays - Dinner... Daddy's usually home on Wednesdays, gotta have something yummy.... hmmm....
and so on and so on...
oh! 
Fridays - Red Box Movie Night

Chasing, chasing, chasing the days.

Chasing my boys and I forget to breathe.
 I forget about the abundant blessings.

I forget about the beauty in the every day.

The beauty in every single thing.
 I forget how much God really cares about my every thought,

my every concern.
 He knows my deepest darkest fear,

my likes, my dislikes,

he knows my dreams and aspirations.

He cares about me.

All of me.
 He is my only.

My only dependable Truth.

27 Why do you say, O Jacob,
and complain, O Israel,
"My way is hidden from the LORD;
my cause is disregarded by my God"?

28 Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.

29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;

31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40: 27-31
