This morning my husband and I went to the hospital to see some of our very best friends brand new baby. He was born at 9:30 this morning and what a cutie pie...totally handsome!
It got me thinking....if I hadn't miscarried I would be about a month away from having a baby myself. That could be a very dangerous thought because it can go two ways. It can lead to sadness, depression, tears and a day of being down in the dumps or it can remind me of Gods faithfulness and how He always knows exactly what I need when I need it. I choose the second.
That may sound strange but I know God knows my desire to have a baby and although I would absolutely love to be pregnant like yesterday :) He has a plan and its a perfect one. Who am I to think I know better than God? I'll never understand why I miscarried but when I think about it I really don't need to know...I just need to trust He knows.
Trusting God has always been a weak spot for me it seems. Yes, I can totally trust Him for other people but when it comes to myself and personal things in my life I seem to hesitate in handing it over. But its so amazing what God does when I do hand it over....He completely blows me away by reminding me once again He is faithful to me. So what do I do? Every single day I build up my faith by spending time with Him, reading His Word and singing songs to Him. The more I know Him and His character the more I love and absolutely adore Him....the more I trust Him.
I know God has a plan for me and my husband. I believe babies are in that plan so I look forward to that and I continue to worship Him in those times that don't make sense. He deserves all of me all the time.
Until next time....
Thanks Kelly! I find myself at times struggling with the same issue of being so positive with and for others, but when it comes to my life it is so hard to totally let go and turn it over. Glad to know I am not the only one. Love you!! Aunt Peggy
