Jeremiah


I was pretty frustrated today over some inconsequential things that seemed consequential at the time. As a result, as much as I hate to admit this, I was yelling at my children. I decided as my stress level increased that the best course of action would be retreat. So I retreated to my room to work on some homework. Shortly after my departure, Hobbes came to share a conversation she had with my six-year-old.

Hobbes: We shouldn't yell at people right?

Miah: Right. Yelling is bad. And when you yell even Jesus can hear you.

I feel humbled

I think Jesus also hears the good things we say.

I have had plenty of retreat days too. Sorry for your stress.
