This pelican has picked up something he will not be able to swallow. If he does, he will have a difficult time digesting it. He does seem to be balancing it ok, though.
Caregiving can be similar. We dive into the immediate need and up comes something we cannot digest. Seeking the answer is a balancing act and our very insides stretch and gurgle and often we spit it out. If we do come to a decision, second guessing keeps us tossing and turning in the night.
I am extremely grateful for my family and friends. During the time I was a caregiver, I had support that gave me the ability to keep taking the steps I needed to take for my loved ones. I had the memory of every time God worked a miracle in my life and kept a tight hold of those Scriptures He used to give me the peace and balance required.
Today, take stock of where you are and what you need. Scripture says to seek and you shall find.
The pelican needs to spit out the bottle and dive again.
