Grace Over Perfection with Alison Simmons

Seriously, Lord? THIS is what you want me to do with my life? I mean, I have skills, talents, and energy. Is this what I am supposed to be doing with my life? Really, is there nothing more?!

Is there an area of your life where you wonder why God gave you talents or passion and then orchestrated a life for you where you are not able to use it?

Are you frustrated? Resentful? Do you ever think that maybe is God is keeping something from you or holding you back?

There are so many situations that all have their own unique twist and can leave you feeling like, despite all that you have, you are really missing out on your "best life" because of what you don't have.

And you fall into the temptation of being discontent.

I have this great t-shirt that always gets laughs whenever I wear it. It says, "Losing My Mind One Kid at Kid at a Time." When people find out I have 5 kids, their eyes get real big and they start nodding like they completely understand why I have lost my mind. Like I have a "good excuse" to be a basket case of a mother.

Here's the thing, they had no idea what I was really dealing with. My anger was not funny. 

And then it happened, the day that I decided to have it out with God.
