Giving It To God......

Today is a hard day.  Things with my pregnancy have taken a turn for the worse.  All signs are pointing to this pregnancy ending very soon.  At this point there is nothing to do but give this all to God....which is what I have tried to do from Day One....but now, I'm not just giving my pregnancy to Him.....I'm giving Him my fear, my anxiety, my sadness......and in return He is giving me peace.  The tears come and go, but my faith this time is unwavering.  I really, truly believe that God has a plan and that He can and will be glorified through all of this.  I am grateful for the month that I have had with this little soul and whether I have only a few more hours or a few more days or a lifetime with this child, I will continue to cherish every second.  God is in control and He has blessed me richly.  I will hold tight to His promises and continue to praise Him for His goodness. 

Hold me tight, Dear Lord.  I need your embrace today.


I Thessalonians 5:18 - Give thanks in ALL circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

He's Got The Little Bitty Baby, In His Hands.....

My husband and I found out on January 4th that we are expecting Baby #4. (Baby #1 is Syd, Babies #2 & 3 were lost during the 1st trimester of my pregnancies). We are both starting to feel good about this pregnancy, even though I am only about 6 weeks along.

We've had blood work done to ensure that my levels are doubling as they should, and we got an ultrasound done a few days ago that confirmed that baby is growing and is located in a safe place this time. (My last pregnancy was an Ovarian Pregnancy so it was not viable and was actually a potential threat to my life, if allowed to continue growing, so we are VERY glad that this baby is located in a place that it can grow to term.)

We are both cautiously optimistic as I have had no problems so far and no indication that this pregnancy is anything but perfect. God has brought us through a very difficult time, these past 18 months and we finally feel like this MIGHT be the light at the end of the tunnel that we have been wishing and hoping and praying for.

Stay tuned as I'm sure I will be sharing what happens either way. God has brought us this far and we know that whatever happens with this little one, He will continue sustain us.

We appreciate your continued thoughts and prayers.
