Hello Baby, I Love You! Abc's for Young Momsنموونە

M

is for Messy

If you were accustomed to having everything in its place, and keeping a neat and tidy home, you may have figured out by now that a baby can quickly change that! Between the bottles, baby toys, diapers, changing pads, blankets, little socks, and shirts everywhere you might be feeling like you may never get control of it all. That doesn't even include the laundry that needs to be done, last night's dishes in the sink, the groceries that didn't quite get put away yet, or the mail scattered on the counter that needs to be opened.

When you look around, the temptation might be to stop and clean up the mess when your time would be best used taking a moment to play with the baby.

Messes come in various sizes. It can be a small spot that just requires a quick damp cloth to clean up, or it can be an exploded diaper that leaked all over the car seat and anything in close proximity...the messes will always be there.

Life is messy! We cannot avoid the messes of life. In fact, God uses the messes in our life to bring about sanctification...

You can be thankful for the mess! God does work all things together for good!

READ the SCRIPTURE

May God give you encouragement, wisdom, and understanding.
