Ugh! I feel so worried lately. I hate to spill this on my blog but it is my blog and hopefully it will help me to feel better!
Worried for this baby. Worried about 2 kids. Worried about grad school. Worried about balancing it all. Just plain worried.
Why am I worried for the baby?? No particular reason besides the fact that I am not in control. I struggled with this a lot when I was pregnant with Max. I am not sure if it is a mom thing but I am constantly praying for this growing child in my womb. Praying that God will keep the baby growing healthy and strong.
Worried about being a momma of 2. I know its going to be hard. I do. Enough said :)
Worried about grad school, I am going to be SO busy with school work and work work that I don't want to be too busy for my family. Which I guess brings us to me being worried about balancing it all. I know that this is the last 7 1/2 months that Max will have all of my attention. The last 7 1/2 months that we will be a family of three and I don't want to waste this precious time stressing over school.
I am a type A personality, I do not procrastinate, I get things done quickly, so I know I will be okay. I also know that the Lord will help with all this. His word has been my source of comfort more then ever lately. He calls us not to be anxious or worried and to cast all of our cares on Him. I'm praying this daily. I am praying for His peace. If you pray, would you include me in your prayers?? I could use a little encouragement.
Today on instagram a friend posted a picture of these words:
Worry is thinking that God might get it wrong...
Those words were a blow to my chest. I am not putting my full trust in God. He has a perfect plan and whether I like it or not He knows best.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to
prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11
i worried a lot when i was in the early stages of my pregnancy too. the second trimester ultrasound helped calm my fears A LOT. i also just knew that when our baby came out perfect (which yours will be), i would be sad that i didn't just enjoy my time with the sweet baby in my belly. i'm sure i'll see you this week, i'll be around comanche helping my sister!! xo
