Encouragement to press on!

I was reminded of Psalm 121 last night and thought I would share it with the mum's out there as an encouragement to get through those times that sometimes we wish we didn't have to deal with. Feel free to share this with the Dad's too or anyone else that may need that little bit of a spur along!!!

Psalm 121
A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Also, these words from Colin Buchanan's song (Do it in Jesus' Name) I found a great encouragement also...

Press on Mum's in all the chaos
Look to Jesus through the tears
Press on Mum's God will guide you
through those precious tender years

And in all you do it for Jesus
One new life and free forgiveness
Yesterday, today he is the same
All you do, do it in Jesus name
(And when all your human energy is gone, Look to Jesus & press on)


I hope this is as much of an encouragement for you as it was for me!
