One Big Family

Technical difficulties

I'm sorry not to have not been blogging regularly--but our cable company changed hands, and, although this was not supposed to happen, it seems to have affected our service. This must have been a God-ordained time to take a little respite.

Meanwhile, thank you for all of your kind comments and sweet wishes. My whole family has been under attack of the enemy this week--it seems that whenever I am pregnant the attackers come out of the woodwork. If you are currently taking steps to obey the Lord and it is not in line with the cultural norm, you know what I am talking about. Specifically, I am dealing with betrayal by those who have been close, and the accusations are coming in based on falsifications and lies.

This has been so good in so many ways. It is pushing me to hide myself in the strong tower of His word, as if I just can't get enough. And I am not just reading the parts that make me feel all fuzzy--I am reading it for repentance and cleansing as well. As a family we are all in a repentance and Word as life mode--something that is precious and wonderful. It would seem that the attacks are turning out to be blessings--how wonderful! This is how our God works; we are never defeated as we humble ourselves before Him.

I now need to allow the Lord to quiet the areas where the damage has been done, and I need to cooperate by changing the patterns of my thinking and moving away from the emotional struggles and hurts in my heart.

I especially need to do this as our little baby is due at the end of November, and she will need the full emotional attention of a mama who is walking in freedom.

Good news--went to pre-register at the hospital and discuss our birth options, etc. The OB nurse we spoke to was so supportive--was actually impressed with our ideas on how the birth should proceed--totally natural and with maneuvering, etc. I would have this baby at home as the last few, but God has asked me to go to the hospital, and He is working out the issues for me. There is so much peace surrounding this decision--thank God!

Just catching up--should have more interesting blogging going on soon.
