WHIRLWIND . . .

August 18, 2008, at 11:40 a.m.

God is so funny and faithful all at the same time. I forget that He doesn’t operate in the confines of time. So many times . . . do I forget.

I have complained about wanting to accomplish so many things before I turn 30.

How pathetic am I?

Really. I must apologize for the whining drama.

So, since the complaints and grumbles, God has shown up in a whirlwind.

I can’t help but think of Abraham and the promise God gave him about having a child and being the father of many nations and how he would possess a land that was under his very feet, yet he still found himself fatherless, fearful, and homeless . . . for a long while. God didn’t forget His promise. He has an appointed time for everything and is not confined to time in any way. So, yeah . . . that is so relevant to the whirlwind in which God has shown His promises to me.

Yesterday, I became 14 weeks pregnant. What?! There are many women that have been mothers before and will continue to be . . . however; I am overwhelmed at this idea of being a mother . . . a mom . . . I still feel like a kid in so many ways. And now we have a new home? What in the world has happened? Chris and I just started feeling like there was a time to start trying for all this in May. It’s now three months later, three months pregnant, and two nights in a bed in a new home . . . and six months until another person lives with us. And my emotions in all of this?

I am more in love with Chris than ever before . . . he is my rock, my best friend, my one true love that shows me love unconditionally. He honors me and cares for me.

I am scared for the responsibility of raising a child . . . hoping that it won’t be in counseling over the way I treated him/her when it’s in its 30s.

I am nesting . . . enough said. HGTV is my drug of choice. Back off!

I am missing my childhood and all the while relishing the joys yet to come as I step into the deep end of the pool.

Seriously. A whirlwind. God is faithful. God is always good.
