Simple Prayer

While reading one of Abigail's childrens' Bibles the other day I ran across this short prayer.
Dear God,
Please help me remember that you're always there. Help me know that you'll always care. When I have to do things I think are hard, help me to keep trying, keep me going Lord. Amen

What a profound prayer found in a children's book. The day I read it, those were words I needed to hear in my heart of hearts. Life with two children has been challenging. I love my girls so much. Learning to take care of them together has been tough at times. Sleep doesn't happen as much as I would like here in this house. I have been tired. Caroline refuses to take a bottle. These are just a couple of my new adventures. I desperately needed to be reminded how much God cares. He's ALWAYS here and he AlWAYS cares. God wants to help me through my daily trials not just the "big" things. This little prayer was just the reminder I needed about how much my Father loves me. He cares about me and everything in my life. Thank you Lord for loving me.
