"Believe you are receiving His grace--right now at this very moment. Believe His love for you has not changed despite the fact that you have not loved your children well today. God's love is never based on your behavior. Look to Christ when you are tempted to yell, and remember He lives in you. He will help you through the most difficult times. Go to your little ones and ask them to forgive you. Tell them that Mommy is a sinner who has a great Savior. Pray with them and believe there is nothing you can do to thwart God's plan for them. We are all bad moms. That's why we need Jesus.
