You are Captivating

I have been having a really rough past week, I feel like this is one of the worst weeks I've had in awhile. It feels like my world is partially falling down around me from different areas of my life, and it has all hit me finally, at once. I came across this quote from the book You are Captivating: Celebrating a Mother's Love By Stasi Eldredge and it knocked me to my knees.

"Every cry out to God in the midst of weariness and loneliness and sorrow for the strength to love; for the wisdom to discipline well; for the grace to respond with patience; for the help to soothe the ache in your heart, deepens His presence in your soul and changes you ever more into the woman you desire to be; the woman you are becoming . . . the woman you were created to be."
