On November 9, 2012 my life as I knew it had instantly changed for the better. That was the day I found out that I was pregnant with our sweet baby boy. I have never been both so excited and so afraid all at once. I couldn't help but think, "Am I really ready for this huge responsibility?"
I have done a lot of praying since I found out I was pregnant. It's extremely scary to be responsible for another human, physically and most importantly spiritually. I have prayed over and over," God, please help me to be a great mom. Help me to lead my child down the path of truth and righteousness. I pray that he will not turn away from that path and that he will always be faithful."
As the weeks have gone by I have realized the only way to truly teach my child how to live faithfully is to show him through my own life. I have to stop being lazy and start getting busy for the kingdom. I never want my child to think that being a Christian means to "sit and retain the right answers." It's about getting up, doing, and sharing the word with others!
So as my journey continues, I ask that you would pray for me as I become a mommy. Pray that I am able to teach my child the way that he should go and that I am able to show him how to live by the way that I live.
