Living In A Zoo?


I don't know how it is for you, but for me, life is at times so totally chaotic that I feel like I am living in the middle of a zoo - a noisy, messy, smelly, commotion-filled zoo. Most days are filled with such a panic-paced race of hullabaloo that day's end finds me prostrate on the carpet with my tongue hanging out!

(Speaking of carpet, I can remember so many times through the years of my zoo-like existence that my little ones could graze through that carpet to find a snack!)

For years I anticipated the next season of life to be less compicated and chaotic than the last, but I've come to realize that every season of life has its own set of overwhelming challenges. Through it all, my brown hair has turned white (don't tell my husband -- he doesn't know yet!) and certain times, it has just come out altogether -- I guess from pulling it out.

If this sounds familiar, then you've come to the right place! I'd love to help you understand that God is equipped to handle my zoo and yours. I am a living testimony that God is real and that He intervenes in the lives of women just like you.
