It's been good for me to be honest and open. :)A Helpmeet for Himhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12381206096800455650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581706868455957856.post-78698656112744131962014-03-23T16:34:59.538-04:002014-03-23T16:34:59.538-04:00This was such a beautiful and heartfelt post. My ...This was such a beautiful and heartfelt post. My husband and I were also (in a sense) trying to take control of our lives. Trying to plan it all out, wanting things to be done a certain way and by a certain time. And then suddenly one day my husband remembered the same thing... "We need to put God first... and he will take care of everything for us." I did get pregnant (that was such a blessing), but then we both lost our jobs when I was 7 months pregnant (a test of our faith I guess you could say). We stayed positive and kept telling each other that God will provide and take care of us. That he has our well-being in mind and that he has plans for us. Ever since we allowed God to be the forefront of our lives... everything is falling in to place. I truly wish the best for you. God definitely has a wonderful plan for you, and you will make a wonderful mother one day! Prayers for you and your family.Megan H.http://simplyhonestsimplyreal.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4581706868455957856.post-71241249002276240902014-03-23T09:03:24.891-04:002014-03-23T09:03:24.891-04:00What a beautiful post Amanda. Your words hit home ...What a beautiful post Amanda. Your words hit home for me as this is where I was a couple short years ago. When my husband and I got married, babies were all that I could think about. As we began trying to get pregnant God began to show me that I had put my desire for children above all else. In short, it took us two years to get pregnant and I can look back now and say that throughout that time God was teaching me a lesson. He was showing me that I need him before I need anything else. <br /><br />I'm so thankful that it took us that long to get pregnant. I feel that it has made me a better Christ-centered mother. I share all of this as a way of encouraging you to continue to seek God, as you always have. I have always been inspired by your blog (and your new home is BEAUTIFUL). I will be praying for you!
