With each day I am one day closer. One day closer to holding my precious child in my arms. One day closer to fufilling a dream. One day closer to ending a longing that has been growing since I was a little girl. One day closer to being a mommy! How I pray this day is sooner rather than later.
It's not every day that I think about it but there are moments when I catch myself wondering has my child been conceived?, if so, how far along is she?, has she looked at every possibility that is out there for her?, is she being counseled in the most ethical way possible?, is she facing this alone or with help?
So many questions come to mind but one that is of most importance to me is "Does she have a personal relationship with God?" Is she placing all her trust and confidence in God to show her the plan he has for her life? This is my earnest prayer for her! I pray that God is an important part of her life and she's looking to Him not only for guidance but for assurance that she is not alone through all of this.
I pray every day for her!
I pray every day!
I pray!

God is Good
Just an update from yesterday: My friend Kim is doing well and hopefully will get to leave the hospital. My sister Liz was sent home with some antibotics and pain medicine. I pray this kidney stone will pass soon. It really is making her nausea.
Today has been a better day except for my adventure trying to renew my driver's license. I have a commerical driver's license because I had to drive a bus when I worked in our school age program. I don't want the CDL anymore because I don't work there any more and it cost more to renew. So I go to our friendly registrar's office and take a number. While taking a number I see a notice that says all CDL licenses have to be renew at a different location. So I tell myself that I'll go another day and just get my nails done. Well, I walk into my nail salon and the lady who does my nails is not there. I don't like anyone else doing my nails so I leave. I'm close to the other location to renew my license and I walk in and the room is full. After standing for about 8 minutes at the window to receive my number, the officer finally ends his phone conversation and I ask him if I don't want my CDL do I still have to wait. He says yes. I ask how long it will take and he tells me that the next number is 4 and they are on 88. I just sigh and tell him I can't wait.
So I'm still driving around with an expired licensce. I hope I don't get pulled over for anything!

Confidence
I'm confident that I serve a mighty God! Today has been a day when I had to just let go and let God. My very dear friend Kim was scheduled for surgery today. She was to be at the hospital at 10:30 and start the surgery at 12:30. During this time I find out that my sister, Liz, who has been battling a kidney stone is in the emergency room with nausea and pain. I felt so helpless because I wanted to be in 2 different places and couldn't be in either.
Kim's surgery didn't start until about 1:45 and as I type I'm waiting for news that she's out of surgery. Liz's doctor sent her for a contrast/non contrast Xray and I'm waiting to hear the results from that too!
I don't worry about things that deal with me or my husband but I do tend to worry about others and the circumstances they are in. God has shown me today that I really don't need to do that because He's in control and He's taking care of them both.
I found a saying today that I've claimed all day~Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God~ Corrie Ten Boom
God is taking care of them both and He's also taking care of me!
