Everything You Do

You're picking up toys on the living room floor  for the 15th time today
Matching up socks and sweeping up lost cheerios that got away
 

You put a baby on your hip and color on your lips and head out the door
And while I may not know you, I bet I know you wonder sometimes does it matter at all
Well let me remind you it all matters...

Do everything you do to the glory of the One who made you
Cause He made you to do every little thing that you do to bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace 

With every move that you make, and every little thing you do.

- Everything You Do by Stephen Curtis Chapman -

(First, sorry for the kind of lousy iPhone pics, but things have been crazy...so that's all I got.) Heard this song on the radio the other day, and I feel like it was speaking straight to me. I mean, some days as a SAHM you feel kind of...invisible maybe? Just like a dispenser of cereal and juice, and a diaper changing station. But it was a nice reminder that what I spend my days doing is not going unnoticed. And these little people who are asking for all those cheerios and juice (and needing all those diapers changed) are the most important gifts I've been given.
