Motherhood sometimes squeezes everything out of you. Look at these Lemons, I couldn't find my lemon press so I had to do it by hand. When I saw this, and I laughed,"This is how I felt today." I felt everything was squeezed out of me, leaving me very frazzled and empty, yet there was joy in store.
On the flip side, tasting the sweet lemonade made from the pressing made it much easier to endure.
"For the joy set before him he endured the cross" (Hebrews 12:2) As mom's, our giving is for a valuable cause:the hearts of our children. Jesus had us in mind when He endured; think of our children's futures as we endure and remember our Labor of Love is of highest value.
Make sure you are taking time to be refreshed so that you can continue to pour out those wonderful ingredients of your legacy to those precious ones. "A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed" (Proverbs 11:25)
