Oh well, my absence from
this blog in the last couple of weeks was not without a reason. And it’s my
pleasure to announce to you (my dear blog readers) that I took time off to have
a baby! Actually, my first child, and it happened in the 10th year
of my marriage! How awesome!
I am so so thankful to God
for the whole experience of being a mom. I agree that there is the lack of
sleep, official sick days and other inconveniences that come with pregnancy and
childbirth. But I also agree that this added "job role" comes with
exceeding joy and fulfillment.
I have always
being a passionate lover of children, and for years I have voluntarily cared
for other people’s children, including the ones with special needs. And when mine did not appear to be forthcoming
many years after being married to a most wonderful man, I chose to place my
absolute trust in the knowledge that God will eventually make it happen for me someday…
And on the 5th
of October 2014, I was delivered of a precious and adorable baby girl! We’ve
named her “Tehilla,” a Hebrew word which means praise, in honour of the
Almighty God who made it possible for me to experience the joy of motherhood
after many years of hope and expectation.
Here are some photos with Tehilla…
Here's a word of encouragement to anyone who may be in that position of waiting for a baby: NEVER EVER GIVE UP YOUR HOPE AND TRUST IN GOD...Be blessed!
Halleluyah! God is Awesome! Indeed there is no failure in God... if you are standing in faith, waiting for the manifestation of any of His promises in your life, just hold fast to God's word and never give up. He sure will show up and exceed your utmost desire.
