Living Sacrifice

Feb. 24, 2008

Baby E has arrived (and other notes)!

I just wanted to let everyone know that our new little Baby E arrived earlier this month, safe and sound, healthy and full-term.  He is a most precious gift from the Lord. Thank you all for your prayers, support, and encouragement. 

Be patient with my blogging break! I will be back, as God leads.

I have joined a new Bible study group and we will be studying the book, "Damsels in Distress" by Martha Peace. 

Also, I just wanted to mention, for some good growth reading, I recently read and recommend, "The Calvary Road," by Roy Hession.  Talking about learning what it means to "die to self!"  Whew!  If you think some of my blog entries are challenging--well, this one did me in! Talk about a swift kick...

I recently completed George Mueller's biography, too.  It was very inspiring!

My husband and oldest son just attended a full-day men's seminar by Norm Wakefield, who was speaking in our neck of the woods (one of my favorite speakers and authors).  They both had a great time--such a blessing for our family!

God bless you all, and don't forget, that you all remain in my prayers for God's grace and peace to be upon you, and for His guidance, help, and mercy in your lives as you strive to live for Him!

And now I must go, for Baby E is squeaking for breakfast number 4.

Congrats, I've been praying for your delivery, thinking it was supposed to happen at some point this month. how exciting. Did you keep the name you had been considering? I have forgotten now what it was except that I really liked it. (I'll have to go through the old posts...)
Hope you are getting lots of rest, I know you're getting lots of help.
I've heard of the Calvary Road before but not read it. Seems to me like I could use a good swift kick. Thanks for putting it back on my radar.

Love, Jennifer

I figured you must have had your son by now, and am glad to hear that all went well. There's nothing sweeter than a newborn to cuddle ... and I bet his siblings love him to bits too!

I thought of you as I picked up a new book to read. _Idols of the Heart_ by Elyse Fitzpatrick. I knew that God nudged me to pick it up and and read it, because it talks about growing in loving Him with all of our heart, soul, strength, etc. just like you have been encouraging us all to pray. You might enjoy it if you haven't already read it.

I've had _The Calvary Road_ sitting next to my bed for several months but never got around to reading it. I think that I will put it next in my line-up ... thanks for recommending it.

Blessings to you & your family!

I'm glad to hear such good news! I wondered when he would arrive, I knew the approximate month. My prayers will be for you during this get-to-know-you and no-sleep time. May all of your family be blessed by baby E.

I found your blog in a round about way. I just read your amazing post on setting your priorities. It blessed and challenged me in so many ways. It was the kick in the pants I needed.

Enjoy the newborn. Drop by my blog for a visit soon.
