with Love..

-taken on 3.15.17 in Kristian’s future room-

While I sit here breastfeeding our little bundle of joy Kristian JR and look back at my life, all glory to God. I am so thankful how He has blessed me so much and answered so many of my prayers.

Our Kristian is now 1 month old and is growing so big so fast. :) I love all his smiles and giggles while he’s sleeping. I had to google why newborns do that. *heeeh Motherhood is amazing and I’m learning daily how to be a better one.

Recovering from my delivery via c-section has not been hard all credit due to my husband. He has become the the best cook, housekeeper and caretaker of our dog. I could not have asked for a more supportive loving husband. And I am so thankful he was able to take paternity leave. It feels like we’re in a really nice long vacation. :)

God is truly very good. And to end the night er morning since baby is now fast asleep, one of my favorite bible verses..

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” -Isaiah 26:3

To set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety. Job 5:11

The Lord will work for all who put their trust in Him. Precious victories will be gained by the faithful. Precious lessons will be learned. Precious experiences will be realized.

Our heavenly Father is never unmindful of those whom sorrow has touched. When David went up the Mount Olivet, “and wept as he went up, and had his head covered, and he went barefoot” (2 Samuel 15:30), the Lord was looking pityingly upon him. David was clothed in sackcloth, and his conscience was scourging him. The outward signs of humiliation testified of his contrition. In tearful, heartbroken utterances he presented his case to God, and the Lord did not forsake His servant. Never was David dearer to the heart of Infinite Love than when, conscience-smitten, he fled for his life from his enemies, who had been stirred to rebellion by his own son. The Lord says, “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.” Revelation 3:19. Christ lifts up the contrite heart and refines the mourning soul until it becomes His abode.

But when tribulation comes upon us, how many of us are like Jacob! We think it the hand of an enemy; and in the darkness we wrestle blindly until our strength is spent, and we find no comfort or deliverance. To Jacob the divine touch at break of day revealed the One with whom he had been contending–the Angel of the covenant; and, weeping and helpless, he fell upon the breast of Infinite Love, to receive the blessing for which his soul longed. We also need to learn that trials mean benefit, and not to despise the chastening of the Lord nor faint when we are rebuked of Him.

“Happy is the man whom God correcteth: … He maketh sore, and bindeth up: He woundeth, and His hands make whole. He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.” Job 5:17-19. To every stricken one, Jesus comes with the ministry of healing. The life of bereavement, pain, and suffering may be brightened by precious revealings of His presence.
