It can be very difficult to trust God and very easy to think that if I just do everything perfectly, then I can protect this baby and see him born, alive and healthy. I also sometimes slip into thinking that God somehow "owes" me this time, but it doesn't work that way either. <br /><br />I'm praying for you and beautiful Genevieve and also for your doctor and his wife and family.

On some days I feel like the Lord couldn't ask any more of this oh so faithful servant because my life is sooo hard... and other days, I feel that surely some immense disaster is looming because I have a great husband and three healthy children... <br /><br />Regarding breech babies, all of mine have been so (current one included) the ENTIRE pregnancy, despite professional massage interventions that proved only temporary. Somehow they all managed to right themselves when the sh*t got real, and I've yet to have a c-section or any difficulties.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450539559082736534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-76348829572965572832013-10-22T10:34:09.912-06:002013-10-22T10:34:09.912-06:00I will pray for your doctor and his wife.

Whenever I heard of a pregnancy tragedy while pregnant with Owen, I wept in sadness and overwhelming gratitude. Really stops you in your tracks doesn't it? I completely understand your anxiety! Keep enjoying those kicks :) You are a beautiful mama!Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11632340526540649653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-88005088581536941252013-10-22T10:18:13.014-06:002013-10-22T10:18:13.014-06:00So sorry to hear about your doctor and his family ...So sorry to hear about your doctor and his family - I will remember them in my prayers. I think worry and fear is often inherent in our mothering. Now I'm on the other end with older children - worrying about grades, college acceptances, DRIVING (!), bullying, friends, etc. The list goes on and on. Sometimes, I find myself imagining "how would I feel if.... (fill in the blank) and I start thinking the worst and get all emotional and suddenly I'm slapping myself because I'm grief-stricken by something that hasn't even happened!! I try and use that as my occasion to pray for that child. That's all we can do - love them, pray for them, and know that God has them in His hands.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02999838147173390906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-14553900348530291362013-10-22T09:44:06.624-06:002013-10-22T09:44:06.624-06:00Wow, thanks for sharing and giving us a reminder o...Wow, thanks for sharing and giving us a reminder of where God wants us - in the present!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01408376397606181124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-46651967672004701522013-10-22T09:33:10.029-06:002013-10-22T09:33:10.029-06:00Oh my heart...a friend of mine contacted me about ...Oh my heart...a friend of mine contacted me about Dr. this last weekend. I am still in a state of disbelief and completely heartbroken about it. I can only imagine what they are going through. Saying prayers for them...and prayers for you! I am completely the same as you when I am pregnant. Josh forbid me to google anything as well. Seriously he'd give me the stink-eye if I ever went close to the computer when I had a worry. You are almost there Jenny. God has great plans for your little one. Trust (hard I know) and don't worry (even harder). You are being held up. Don't let fear steal your joy. You're doing wonderful :)Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319545333588899129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-11686153729834373902013-10-22T09:27:06.014-06:002013-10-22T09:27:06.014-06:00What a tragedy for your doctor and his family!

I honestly can't understand how you cant be anxious in pregnancy. But there are all sorts of pregnant women who trust so much more than I do. Prayers for you though Jenny, since I've been pregnant for the majority of the past six years I pray for all my pregnant friends everyday just out of solidarity. ;)Christy from fountains of homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11130888193737436970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-35144537520095247002013-10-22T08:45:20.236-06:002013-10-22T08:45:20.236-06:00I can relate to this so much Jenny.

I don't have any kid yet but the feeling you described. <br /><br />"I have a completely warped sense of God's mercy and His love, and so I bathe my brain in anxiety as I wait in fear for the Next Bad Thing to happen. The fact that nothing really bad has actually happened to us? Proof that we're due for a big, fat dose of redemptive suffering."<br /><br />That is exactly it. I feel like I have life so good and am yet so totally sinful and undeserving that I've got to have a big tragedy around the corner. I know that isn't the right way to view God's love but I'm not sure exactly what the right way is either.

It hurts so much to hear of such a thing, and in that I know I cannot even imagine how much they must be suffering. <br />Also- "by the force of my anxiety, to will your safety into being"- perfectly stated! It's so hard for me to remember that only God is in control.
