This isn't really a baby update but it is something I learned in church this week about being a faithful-to-God-future-mother.
In church this Sunday, we sang the song "Your Love Never Fails". One of the lines in the song is "You make all things work together for my good"
When I first read the words, my thoughts were "If God wants my life to be good, why am I having financial issues and things keep breaking at home?" Then I really thought about it. It does not necessarily mean our lives will be all "good times". It means God knows what is best for me and my family, and even if we must suffer for a time, overall it is for the good that God has in store for us. Maybe our financial troubles are God showing me that if I have faith in Him, He will supply all my needs. Or maybe stuff breaking at home is God telling me I really don't need all the stuff I think I "need".
Now and forever, I want to rely on my Lord for my needs and the needs of my child. Even when things are hard and I can't see why they are happening to me, God has a plan for the good things and the suffering. He will never give me any more then I can handle if I trust in Him.
