  • Unanswered prayers

    Just read this entry again about how God answered my prayer after 9 years, and it put tears in my eyes.  Sometimes it's just so easy to want to give up on God because He doesn't answer my prayers as quickly as I want Him to, but it's not because He doesn't love me.  It's because He loves me.  There's a better time for it -- or there's a better answer for the request I'm making.  I need to trust Him.

  • hi mary ann, i'm praying for you and your baby. hang in there, god is in control. i know you're feeling terrible right now but just think about how your baby is growing and developing in you. the baby needs all those hormones surging through your body right now to be formed into god's perfect creation. check out babycenter.com for a week by week look on how your baby is growing. it's amazing all that's happening inside you!!

  • hi Mary Ann, congrats!!! :D that's exciting!  I hope you feel ok... yea I've heard both stories.  some people say they didn't have much problems.  My co worker had it really bad too, she lost a lot of weight even.  I asked her and she said she lost 20 lbs because she couldn't keep anything down @_@.  she seems ok now that she's further along.  hang in there!

  • Your entry reminded me of this song that I used to sing all the time, "In His time, In His time, He makes all things beautiful in His time, Lord please show me everyday, as You're teaching me Your way, that You do just what You say, in Your time." The words in this brought me a lot of peace while I was waiting for God to bring my future husband and me together (wherever he was, I had no idea where, but my family and church aunties kept asking! haha...). Ultimately, I've found it sooo true what someone once observed and shared with me: "God never has to hurry, and yet He's always on time!" (Whereas I always have to hurry to make it on time...)
