Future Decided

The thought of starting over with new babies is quite scary for me, never having the opportunity of starting over with new babies is even more scarier.

I always imagined myself with 6 kids. I don’t know why 6, maybe because I was an only child and longed to have a big family. Not sure. I thought I would find that man of my dreams and settle down, and have babies, and have the opportunity to stay home and wipe noses, go on field trips, etc. I didn’t necessarily have to birth all those babies myself, even now, I wouldn’t mind adopting a child who was a little older that needed a family.

We watch Jon & Kate plus 8 all the time, and sometimes I think “no way I could have the patience for all those kids, Sara would have to lock me up” and sometimes I think “man, look at those little blessings, I wish I could have more”.

I’m not sure what God has in store for me. Not always sure what I want… Good thing God knows what I need…

Psalms 37:4 Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

i think when we are immature, God gives us emotional safety nets of dreams that seem concrete. it's only when we start becoming truly defined by our faith that God can take off our blinders and we look around to realize nothing is concrete. and yet we take a breath and find we are still peaceful with unknown days because eternity is so sure. you must be growing up. ;)
