Just pray for a tough hide and a tender heart.
Every cat knows some things need to be buried.
Worship and worry cannot live in the same heart: they are mutually exclusive.
Love without clinging, cry if you must, but privately cry, the heart will adjust.
We cannot pray and remain the same.
If I cannot give my children a perfect mother I can at least give them more of the one they've got--and make that one more loving. I will be available. I will take time to listen, time to play, time to be home when they arrive from school, time to counsel and encouerage.
