Dear Ja,
In my weak moments I am still feeding and thriving off my answer I got a few days ago. Sometimes I find I'm saying those words to myself amongst the noise and chaos, "I'm still just as strong and powerful." The same words Jesus spoke to me saying, "Even though I was seperated from the Father, I was still just as strong and powerful."
When the Lord commands and we do our very best, though the rest out of our control, He makes up the difference ten-fold as if we were obeying with exactness. Which reminds me the only time the word exactness is used in the Book of Mormon is when the stirpling warriors obeyed Helaman's orders. 'They did not doubt their mothers knew it.' They also had never done or practiced what was expected of them in war. I have no practice being a single mom or even living on my own; But just as those moms had confindence in the Lord to have their sons in a war-zone with no prior training, I can give my confidence to the Lord to sustain my husband in his war-zone and to help me raise the children by a mother who 'knew it' too.
Luv, me
PS Benjamin was a joy to have today in every aspect and situation.
I'm blessed to have you and 3 other children to support me in this conquest.
