I needed this...

Motherhood is hard. Yesterday was really hard. All the scary aspects of having a 1 and 3 year old were in full force.

I'm not ready for school to start. We have 15 new players. I'm scared of the loneliness that I battle during the school year. I tear up every time I add something to the planner for fall.

Then I wake up to this scripture :

Fear not... You are mine.  When you pass through the waters I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.  For I am the Lord your God... Your savior... You are precious... And I love you...

Isaiah 43:1-4

Maybe you needed this today, too.
