God Gives Us Strength to Achieve the Tasks He Has Set Before Us - If We Let Him.
I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me. Phillipians 4:13
It seems all I have been posting about is how I am so tired. I am thankful for the physical strength God gives me to do the tasks I need in order to achieve that tiredness. I am not complaining. I suppose, at 5weeks left to go in my pregnancy, I cannot believe the strength God gives me yet! - And a few years shy of 40, too!
God is truly awesome. So, partially due to the length of the day yesterday and the physical work I again had to exert, and partially due to the fact that today is Jocelyn's blog day *and* grocery day *and* I have a post to type up yet, I will just give you a link today to Jocelyn's post: A Day To Forget...
(I will be posting my version on Seeking Rest On The Homestead as soon as possible!)
Poor girl. From exhilaration and joy to utter despair in 3 days of goat kidding. I am sure she will not forget the day, as I know I won't. There is much to learn in despair and grief, including the sovereignty of a Most High God, the frailty of life and our lack of ability to control things... all of which we sometimes forget as Believers.
Go on over there and encourage her. We are blessed to be servants of a God who is faithful and loving and the giver and sustainer of life. -Even when we do not see life.
Be a blessing to someone today!! Be a blessing to your children today. Amanda and Jocelyn told me that they saw something about celebrating and blessing your children, doing something special with and for them today in honor of Missey Gray and her blog, HeartSchooling. It also mentioned the fact that her baby, Missey Kate was also born a year ago today as her Momma went to be with the Lord.
However you celebrate the day with your children, do it to the Glory of the One True God. Remember that life is given by God and we are blessed to have the lives around us He gives.
Endeavoring to answer His call-
-Jacque

I'm trying to picture in this mind a pregnant mama trying to pull a goat out of its mama. :- ) (I read Jocelyn's post)
I hope you are feeling well. Only a little longer to go. You must be very ready.
Blessings,

Your in my prayers. I remember the final stretch of my pregnancy and being less energetic than I usually was. Now with winter and being more indoors I also find that my energy level needs to increase. I am thankful for the season that will soon be here. We'll all be outside in the beautiful sunshine more and that will surely be good. Just thin in a few short weeks you wil be holding a miracle.
God is good!
Have a blessed weekend,
Maria
