Today is Better Than Yesterday

Do you ever have those days where you wake up and all you can think about is all the things you have to accomplish? Yesterday was a challenge for me because from the time I got up until I went to sleep I just felt anxious, stressed and overwhelmed. I spent my day stressed and edgy. When I picked up my son I had no patience for his bad attitude and proceeded to let him have it the rest of the night.

Today I woke up determined to have a better day! I read my scriptures said a prayer and asked for help in dealing with my stress and can you believe...My prayers were answered! The many tasks still hang over my head again today however I made a choice to turn it over to Heavenly Father and not try to handle everything by myself!

So when you have "one of those days", make a decision to let it go and give it to the one person who waits for you to ASK for his help!

Hey Lis!
I feel like I have days like this just about everyday! I hate going to bed feeling bad for yelling at the kids.
That's good advice! I need to start praying for lots of extra help on those days, and try not to get overwhelmed!
I think we need to count our blessings and know that Heavenly Father is always there, 24/7, waiting to hear from us!
Thanks for the remider!
Love you!
