Trust

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding" Proverbs 3:5.  I find myself in a conflict once again to trust in the Lord in this time of trial and tribulation.

Extenuating circumstances led to a five hour visit to the Emergency Room, met with a follow-up visit tomorrow with the high risk obstetrician.

I find myself attempting to accept the fact that I am not in control of even my own being and the precious gift that has not yet fully been given to me is still in God's hands.

I will continue to pray that His plan be fulfilled on a daily basis.  All outside prayers are also welcome.  May God's blessing be upon me in the days to come, ultimately leading to a healthy baby boy or girl.

Conflict

There is nothing more that I want than to have a normal, healthy baby girl or boy.  It seems the closer I get to my due date, the more my patience and faith in God is tried.  I have had several more sonograms than I had originally itended, since the doctor is seeing things she doesn't necessarily agree with.  I am continuing to pray that everything ends up in a favorable manner.  Once again, I know that He has a plan for me and this beautiful gift He has given to me.

Not able to have a baby shower, seeing how I don't really know anyone out here in Maryland, but am definitely planning to visit my family after the baby is born, which couldn't be a better gift for me.

I truly do miss all my friends and family and am hoping to see them soon.

The Gift of Life

I am now just over 30 weeks and am definitely ready for this gift of life to be here.  As the days continue I grow more and more excited.

Although I am definitely ready to welcome my little bundle of joy now, I know that patience is a virtue that must be accepted since I want nothing more than a healthy little boy or girl to hold in my arms when the time is right.

Once again I am forced to trust in the One greater and more powerful than myself.  I know it is He who truly has a plan for me and simply wants what is best in His eyes.  I do look forward to the day when I can look down into two eyes and hold that tiny little hand, though.
