Using Your Heart

As the mother of three and wishing physically I could have more I can see the hand of the Lord working. Though my wants are for more children I have been feeling the need to be doing "something more". I've had to ask myself, "What is it that is needed of me"?
Children have always been a passion of mine even before I had my own and now I understand that I can do more than I am. If I can truly fulfill motherhood to the best of my abilities and even push myself beyond what I feel I can, leaning on my Father in Heaven for guidance and support I can accomplish SO much more!!! I've always known this or at least thought I knew it . Maybe I've known it but now I've actually FELT this in my own life. It's easy to get discouraged by what seems to be in others lives, but how do we embrace our own lives? That's what really counts. How we help those around us even when we may feel they don't need it or want it is also very important.
For me I know that fear always comes to mind anytime I try something out of my comfort zone. That's only the natural man! I've been discovering how I can reach past that man and let my heart be the first in line. It's a BIG change! It's a change that I want to continue to work on. I've seen the difference it allows me to make in the lives of my children and others that I talk to or have contact with. I really feel that if more people would work from their hearts instead of their heads this world could be so much more. When will we wake up and really feel instead of just do? I'm trying! It's not easy but I know it's worth every tear that falls.
