Today is the beginning of a new chapter. Tom and I have been through so much this past year. We have had our emotional ups and downs...from buying a new house to losing our first son, Grant, we have been through a lot. Now, with the past behind us and the future God has planned for us in front we are excited to announce that we are expecting another baby.
I woke up this morning and took a home pregnancy test. It did not take too long for a faint line to start to appear. In disbelief, Tom wanted me to get a digital test to confirm. Off to the store I went, as he headed to work. I got the test and sure enough it read "Pregnant" as clear as day. I texted a picture to Tom (which he could not see) and told him that I was definitely pregnant.
I can not help but sing praises to God for this little miracle. I was down on my knees, crying and praying this morning. "Thank you God for another baby! Thank you for trusting Tom and I to raise a child and teach that child Your ways. Please bless this child with good health and love. I claim a healthy pregnancy, in Jesus' name! Please let me be a loving mother, who will show Your love daily. Anoint me to teach my child to be a godly person, to pray, to know Your ways and Your Word. I thank you for this miraculous gift of life that is growing inside me. In Jesus name, Amen."
I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of Him. So now I give him to the LORD. For his whole life will be given to the LORD.
1 Samuel 1:27-28
Praise God for His faithfulness in giving us a child!
