Well, since i'm 34 and a half weeks pregnant, i figured I would document my growing belly on my blog!! As the day we meet our daughter grows closer, I grow more and more anxious. I've had a number of close friends ask me what verses they can pray for me during this time, and the other day during my time with Jesus, He gave me Psalm 16 to cling to:

Keep me safe, my God,
for in you I take refuge.

2 I say to the LORD, “You are my Lord;
apart from you I have no good thing.”
3 I say of the holy people who are in the land,
“They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.”
4 Those who run after other gods will suffer more and more.
I will not pour out libations of blood to such gods
or take up their names on my lips.

5 LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup;
you make my lot secure.
6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.
7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
8 I keep my eyes always on the LORD.
With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,
10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
nor will you let your faithful[b] one see decay.
11 You make known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

    praying for you, dear emily :)
    i think it's awesome and such a sweet gift from the Lord that we got to bump into you guys & meet y'all on our honeymoon in savannah. :)

    another little chunk of verses the Lord just brought to my heart to pray through for you--

    The LORD upholds all who are falling
    and raises up all who are bowed down.
    The eyes of all look to You,
    and You give them their food in due season.
    You open your hand;
    You satisfy the desire of every living thing.
    The LORD is righteous in all His ways
    and kind in all His works.
    The LORD is near to all who call on Him,
    to all who call on Him in truth.
    He fulfills the desire of those who fear Him;
    He also hears their cry and saves them.
    --psalm 145:14-19 :)

    praying Jesus would be your continual satisfier and provider! :) :) :)
    love from ohio!!
