This past Sunday Pastor Guy was talking about the risk you take when you pray. I didnt think of this as a risk but Ryan had brought it to my attention.
Last September the kids and I were getting into a new routine that involved me being able to read my bible daily. I would read during nap time since I wasnt needing to nap anymore :) I would always ask God to help me be the mom he created me to be. Because I know I cant be the mom he created me to me without his help. Ironically the next month I found out I was pregnant! I guess you could say that is a risky prayer based on the out come, but like I said, I never thought of it that way. I was just looking to my creator, my God, my Savior to help me like he says he will do if you just ask :) Shortly after I found out that I was pregnant(total surpise like dash and sammie were) and I dealt with the fact that we are going to have another before either of us planned, I looked at it like God was telling me I was doing a good job raising His kids. If I wasn't then why would He trust me with another!
I am thankful for the three kids that God has given us to raise. I only hope and strive to do the best job, but I can only do that with His help. So I guess you can say that I will continue this "risky" prayer of being the mom He created me to be.
You are a GREAT mom!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have taught me so many things, and shown me so much as how to handle little kids.
My mom says you are a great mom. When I tell her things that you do, she says you are a great mom.
