What would you do? With all your power......
I was cleaning, re-arranging, and listening to music in lj's room (while a. also pulled every toy/book/random whatnot out to play with) when this song came on his ipod. It reminded me and inspired me (as music so often does) of the reason we do what we do. We have an awesome power and responsibility (as humans) but especially as parents....and we have this ONE life and one moment to do something with it. I can't help but feel like I've squandered so much and been irresponsible with it. I just don't know what to do with my power!
What I know right now: power = energy...and I need superpowers!
Wouldn't we all like to think we would do/be/create something great if only given the opportunity. Well, we do. EVERY DAY!
My doing/being/creating greatness is going into these two little beings for now. For there is the future power...
SO....... what would you do.........
This made me think of "wondertwin powers ...activate"!
ReplyDeletei guess i don't feel very powerful at all; in fact, i'm pretty sure that the only power in me is not of me, you know?
This is my "life" verse...the one I identify with most: "But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us." 2 Cor 4:7
of course, this is not to say that we don't have responsibility in how we use our talents... i have felt much the same, that i've squandered a lot; Jennifer Knapp/ Martyrs and Thieves--that song says it all for me
okay sorry, enough heaviness from me for one day; i guess to answer your question, i'd say "form of a big cup of coffee" to stay motivated for all the daily tasks of being a mom!
