This is the face and attitude that I have been dealing with for the past few weeks from Sam. I am exhausted!! He is going through a really tough stage right now, and although I know that it shall pass, that doesn't really make me feel any better. We are battling over EVERYTHING and since our personalities are quite similar, we totally clash. I have been praying for him, mostly that God would soften and quiet his heart and that He would help him to be obedient to me. I think I am going to start praying more for myself. That God would give me the strength to endure this difficult time with a spirit of love and kindness and that I would (as my husband always tells me) give him more love than he deserves! Maybe I need to let go of some of the control that I place on him and give him some more breathing room. I definitely need to choose my battles better. But, I will not budge on respect and obedience. Those are a must, and of course, those are the biggest problem right now. So...if you think of us, please pray for us!!! We need it.
