In the Begginning

            "In the beginning God created........"  Creation is in the center of our Saviors heart.  He began with creation and so it is no surprise that he is still creating His world, only now he continues his creating through reproduction..  And he allows his children to be part of this miraculous process.  Have you ever thought about what a miracle a baby is? How does something go from the size of a mustard seed to a baby, sufficient to breathe and live, and grow in just 40 weeks time. This is truely amazing!! Even more amazing to me is the fact that all the limbs and the head the organs and everything form perfectly as if they were poured into a mold. We are by far the most complex creature that God created to live on this Earth and just think He can do that in just 40 weeks.  That is why I call this "The 40 week Miracle"

 Today: Calculate and find out when God began your 40 week journey.   Fill in the date you believe you conceived.  You can calculate this by the first day of your last menstrual cycle, add 14 days to it and this is close to the date you conceived. Write this in your Journal.

Pondering Moment:  Take a moment today to reflect on what God is doing in your life and the miracle of  creation,pregnancy and birth.  Stop and thank Him for allowing you to be part of His creation and the honer of bringing a new life into this world.

Let's Pray:

Father, Thank you for choosing me to be a part of continuing creation in Your World.  Thank you for choosing me to be a mother to a child only you already know.  Please Lord help me from this moment on to make decisions that will lead this child into the plan you have for it's life.  Show me how to pray for this child each and every day.  Bless this pregnancy, help me to be well and the Baby to be forming perfectly as you have planned.  Help me really to see the miracle of carrying and giving birth to a child as you would have me to see it.  Help me to rest in Faith knowing you Lord have everything under control.  Thank you again for giving me the gift of honer to bring life into this world and help me to be a blessing to you.
