Why hold tight?

I started this journey after spending a lot of time talking with moms. And while this message was created for them, it can really be for anyone who needs the reminder.

One thing I've learned is that we’re all either holding tight to something like those small fleeting moments, or needing the reminder to hold tight, perhaps because we feel like we're spiraling. Many days its both.

I hate to admit that I've spent much of my time raising three kids (10/8/4) in the spiraling position. Despite being in the exact place I waited my whole life to be, I've often felt overwhelmed, yet still reaching for more. I've struggled to find myself while in the thick of meeting everyone else's needs. So I started praying. A lot. And I felt a wake up call in my heart. Something telling me to just slow down. To trust that this is exactly where I am supposed to be right now. That He has a plan for my life and I need to HOLD TIGHT and just be in it!

Life is still, and will always be full of highs and lows, but I look at them a little differently now. I remove unnecessary necessary pressure when I'm feeling overwhelmed and take time to remind myself to just breathe and HOLD TIGHT.

And I think we could all use this reminder xox Sarah
