Nesting.

Nesting, panic, craze.

So at a certain point in your pregnancy you get a little itch called "nesting." It's a little insane. Im pretty sure its all I think about these days. I do think its completely built into us, just look at those fat little robins hopping around . They don't look very panicked, but deep down inside they must be. haha. Today I was quickly reminded of the following verse...


And He said to His disciples, "For this reason I say to you, do not worry about your life, as to what you will eat; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. For life is more than food, and the body more than clothing? Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap; they have no storeroom nor barn, and yet God feeds them; how much more valuable you are than the birds! And which of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life's span? If then you cannot do even a very little thing, why do you worry about other matters? Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you? You men of little faith! And do not seek what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not keep worrying. Luke 12:22-29


Makes me feel pretty sheepish actually. Here I am worrying day and night about moving, preparing for this baby, and hoping Im going to be a good momma. When in reality God's got it under control. Yea, we dont have a house yet... but it will work out. Too be honest Im going to have to come back to this post pretty often to remind myself of this. Its so easy to look at my growing belly and completely PANIC. Im just so thankful God has showed this to me today. As for right now im going to go feed the birds and enjoy this beautiful day God has given me.


Please pray that God will give us direction and peace.


God Bless
