Belly

Ok so I swore to myself (and my mom! sorry mom) that I would never take a picture like this of myself while pregnant. A picture with my shirt up exposing my belly. Scott had the camera out while I was looking at my belly and snapped this one of me. I decided to put the picture up because....how amazing is it that there is a tiny helpless little human being in my belly?

Psalm 139: 13-16
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

I am in awe of how amazing my body is right now. Scott and I have often talked about how incredible pregnancy is and how my body is capable of growing and nourishing a baby without any real effort on my part (other than being tired all the time and eating a lot more than normal!)

My pregnancy has been a daily reminder of the sovereignty of God. It is truly amazing what is happening inside me, and I can take no credit for this miracle. God has created this precious child within me, and already loves our little one more than he or his parents can possibly imagine.
