Question: How can I remember myself when I get tired, hungry, and cranky? This state seems to run away with me, and I lash out at those I love. Then when I come to myself, I feel terrible. How do I find the strength to stop this cycle?

Answer: I know how this sounds, but it is the way: Try, try, and try again. There is a secret in this willingness to go back onto the spiritual battlefield. Scripture says it best, I think: “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.”
