Just when I get ready to lose it though the Lord with out fail sends a refreshing cue into my life. And most of the time it is my kids who fill this role. My kids are the ones who keep me going, who remind me why I'm here and how fortunate I am. Their energy and innocence refuels me when I am running on empty. The look in their eyes, one of hunger in the midst of their search for something real, something pure, is what pushes me to give them more of myself. They have a way of making things right and not "too serious." I love them and am forever thankful for their presence in my life.
As I pray for them today, these words of Paul seem to perfectly fit my feelings toward them: For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you? Indeed, you are our glory and joy. 1 Thess. 3:19

thanks for sharing cb, your words are a real encouragement and blessing to me today.
true words cody, great thoughts... it's just the encouragement I need. It's hard to make to invest in people's lives and not get any returns, but just at the most unlikely moment, from the least likely source, God pulls something through that keeps you going. Keep up the great work.
