Precious Time with Jesus

Since Lyla has been born my time with Jesus has been less than desired. It's amazing how one tiny person can occupy so much of my heart and my time. I was feeling discouraged about it last week but after a much needed talk with my sweet friend Elizabeth I've been doing better. I am surrendering to the fact that hour quiet times will have to be put a side for a time and that I need to be O.K. with smaller bits of time. I'm realizing so much of this mommy thing is setting realistic expectations and goals. Elizabeth suggested doing one chapter a day and writing down my observations. I'm doing the book of John and looking at the person of Jesus. It's been good for me to have this little goal and I find I've been more consistent to find the time to spend in the word. I'll take what I can get. I desperately need it.
