PULLING MY HAIR OUT!!1

It's been a day like that: I have seen another side of me that I don't like!! I've been pushed to, what feels like the extreme... but I know it's not as extreme as it could be, or is for others.
I still feel like I'm surviving day-to-day; two little boys and a near-due baby, a sick husband who's out of work, financial crunch and an unknown tomorrow, extreme exhaustion and an aching back all put me in a "just endure this day" mode.
Granted, I do wake up every day with a fresh perspective... and I am posting this comment at the end of a particularly hard day. I cling to the promise that "His mercies are new every morning- GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS O LORD!" As for my part in getting beyond "survival"- as a friend encouraged me to- I am weak. I just thank Him so much that He holds onto me!
I am the wounded soldier in the trenches who has no strength to survive, but my Companion locks His arms under mine and over my chest, and in this embrace he pulls me through the muck until we can see the enemy defeated.
Pray for me if you read this! Let me know if I can also pray for you; in this way we can encourage each other on in our journies!!
