I am so overwhelmed with joy, and it is all because of you guys! So thankful and blessed for my family and friends who are here for me and Kris as we go through this journey together on having our third baby. When I found out I was not to excited, mostly because here we are just getting back on our feet. But I read my daily devotional and it was like it was written just for me, it says, grow strong in your weakness. Some of my children Ive gifted with abundant strength and stamina. Others, like you, have received the humble gift of frailty. Your fragility is not a punishment, nor does it indicate lack odd faith. On the contrary, weak ones like you must live by faith, depending on me to get you through the day. I am developing your ability to trust me, to lean on me rather than on your understanding. Your natural preference is to plan out your day, knowing what will happen and when. My preference is for you to depend on me continually, trusting me to guide you and strengthen you as needed. This is how you grow strong in your weakness. James 4:13-15, proverbs 3:5, Isaiah 40:28-31. That sure hit me and at the same time it calmed me.
