Today we have been super blessed. We, my daughters and I, have the privilege of helping a young Mama who is pregnant with baby #4. She is due soon, and all of her family lives quite a distance away. So we will go to her home and play with her children for a little while, help her pick up after the children and give her a little rest.
You might consider this a blessing for her, perhaps, but we're the ones who will truly be blessed. We get to share Christ, (although this young Mama is already a Christian). Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality. Romans 12:13 We pray that God will reinforce the love of Christ through us. May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. 2 Thes. 2: 16-17 We get to meet a new friend, that is always so much fun. I get to watch as my daughters grow in Christ and give up self to help someone. It is a teaching/learning opportunity that many Moms/girls do not get today.
God is so very gracious to lead me as a Mom in raising my children, and I love when He leads us to other Mom's who need a little TLC. He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young. Isa. 40:11
Thank You Lord for this day and the Blessings that you have given and are giving us.
