Growth is always a great thing but it is not always easy. There are always ways you can grow spiritually, emotionally, physically and mentally. So far this past year I have been in a spiritual growth and it has bled over and helped other areas of my life as well. I would like to say that my relationship with God has always been this way but that would not be true. Over the past few years I let life become so overwhelming and letting the crazy schedule of my life control me instead of the other way around. People used to tell me all the time wake up before your kids and make that time to spend in your devotional, bible study or prayer and your day will be 10 times better. I never really believed them when they said that but over the last year most days I do try to get up and start my day that way and you know what? It actually does start the day off in a better direction, I am more patient with the kids, little things do not get to me that much and I am more positive. It also helps…
