Handing Over My Tangled Mess

August 29, 2016 by Monica McConkey 4 Comments

Do you ever worry? Do you ever pray Jesus, I trust in You, all the while coordinating your best backup plan just in case?

I do.

Sometimes my to do lists churn into sticky-note reminders for my kids’ to do lists and I’m troubleshooting things that haven’t even happened …for jobs that aren’t even my problem. Sometimes, I wake up the next day to find that all that busy work I did while I couldn’t sleep at three in the morning…was completely unnecessary.

From time to time, I receive Catholic products and books in exchange for my honest review. From time to time, I will write about our family's innovative way of using a particular product or I will include a short quote from the book to help convey how it equips Catholic families. I offer the direct links to the sponsoring company (no commission) but sometimes offer the Amazon affiliate link discreetly for the convenience of my subscribers. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. If you click on the Amazon Affiliate links and purchase something, I may receive a small commission...but this does not raise the price of your purchase. These linked products are books or items I either have or wish that I had, but the opinions are my own. Thanks for your support!
