20 weeks pregnant :)

So here I am. Here we are ;) 20 weeks pregnant, well actually I’m 20w+3 days. My scan is a bit later on today. And no I’m not going to ask…. Looking forward to seeing this baby bump on screen. To see his/her legs, arms, body and cute little face (of course cute, have you seen my other two!?) heehee…

Last week was such a whirl. I wrote a blog entitled something like ‘pregnancy hormones’ anyways. I didn’t publish it. It was sad. I cried a lot last week. Then I realised I was really. beyond. tired. And rested so much. Surprisingly, I was way less emotional! I also met a friend for prayers. The kind where you completely trust God to deal with things that might be/are upsetting you, then you pray through the root problem. And honestly. I feel so different  (It’s called Sozo for those interested, but it was modified to fit into a short space of time) ;)

So glad it was so easy to overcome. I was honestly in a whirl. I had a bunch of things to organise that all fell to pieces :( I had two big orders that almost went wrong, and even until yesterday was being delivered to a company called ‘road runner’….. Not ‘Revival Fires’ then ;) Then we had a sweet, lovely guest from Finland come and stay for a few days – my children love having ‘sleep overs’ I guess that’s the best way to say we’re having someone come stay isn’t it? Beth kept asking for sleepovers with my mum, so we were able to appease her for a few days with our guest!

And then Ben and I got sick. And then we didn’t leave the house for 4 days…..! So I didn’t really feel like blogging, talking, writing, praying, reading etc. And it was somewhere in between the feeling sorry for myself and desperate for peace again that I prayed and asked for peace.

To know that I can ask for God’s peace to invade my heart, to know that He will never fail me, to know that my absence from prayers makes me want to know God more and see Him at work in my life, in life around me and in my families life.

I asked for peace. And I received peace. Yes I was still super glad when last week was over and there was less to do, time to get better, things I had organised would sort themselves out…

My prayer for you is that whatever you are facing today, be it good or bad. That you will know the incredible Peace that God brings by the Holy Spirit. That you will have all you need to succeed in anything you face today and that you will be someone people want to be around – a life giver!!

That is my prayer for me, for today. And most days! xox

  1. Lovely Anna, another relevant message. Lately i have come to realise that being able to run to ‘Our Daddy’ and pray, is one of the most amazing gifts we have been given – among so many other gifts. I pray for you and your lovely family, not forgetting the bump!! I have always thought that pregnant woman are one of the most awesome things to behold, when i see a pregnant woman, i think of Jesus, what a lovely sight! love you guys xxoo
