Peace be with you!

So here we are another Monday and another week. I will be 28 weeks pregnant this week. Every week is a miracle. Last week was an especially hard week. Not nesseccary for me but for my very close friend and sister-in-law. And not being there was extremely hard for me. Being told not to travel to be with someone in pain is really hard. But hourly I lift her up and pray that God's peace surrounds her and her family . I love all of them so much, I know I am lucky to have such great in-laws and hope they are blessed daily.

I have always had a slight ( some may argue the degree) obsession with the Duggar family. And one of my favorite things I have heard Momma Duggar say is that she hopes to be an encouragement to other moms. I know she has been for me . So after struggling to enter into God's presence at church, I was so moved by the message. The pastor led us through the bible as it speaks about encouragement. Allowing ourselves , giving to others, finding it in God's word......all something I struggle with. This is something I have always wanted to do . I am so excited to have heard this and received it. So from this moment on I will strive to be an encouragement to others and when in dark times look to God to renew my faith and encourage me.

So for now I sign off hoping to be an encouragement to SOMEONE today.
