Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
After three weeks of holding it in I am proud to announce the news that I AM PREGNANT!!! Shea and I couldn't be more excited. I have been nervous and anxious all at the same time...but when my emotions over take me I just turn it over to God and ask Him to take over...HE IS IN CONTROL! Praise God!
Shea and I found out three weeks ago and told immediate family and a few friends, but we have seen Dr. Benton and then yesterday my favorite tech at the clinic Krystal scanned me and we got a heartbeat. What a wonderful sound. I am around 7 weeks and my due date is January 26th.
Shea and I would be thankful of your prayers for a healthy baby. Philippians 1:3-4 says "I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy." I know that I have a special angel in Heaven watching over me, her daddy, and her unborn brother or sister. For this reason I am thankful.
I will leave with a few verses...
1 Chronicles 16:34 - Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love and his kindness go on forever.
Lamentations 3:22-23 - The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
Isaiah 41:10 - Fear not, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed. I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will help you; I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.
Psalm 91:14-15 - Those who love, I will deliver; I will protect those who know my name. When they call me, I will answer them; I will be with them in trouble, I will rescue them and honor them.
And one of my favorites that I read with Mary Glenn...
Psalm 139: 13-14 - For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
Praising God!
