Signs?

Signs? blog

Ever feel like you're receiving signs from up above? So I've been worried for awhile now about my chances of having a baby with down syndrome. I'm at 1 out of 79 at this point. Well, lately, I've been seeing signs around that keep bringing this issue up for me. Special videos of precious babies with disabilities. Pictures. I've even seen children out and about in my daily life. It's like He is putting these things there to let me know that's it's ok. I don't know, maybe I'm just being silly but is He preparing me for what may come? I know Jesus doesn't want me to be sad and I also know that He won't give me anything I can't handle. Should I be prepping for this? Should I just move forward with my pregnancy like I never received this news? I guess I am typing all of this just to help get it out. I can't help but think that these things were put out there for me to see for a reason. I just saw a precious video on Facebook this morning of a little girl who was obviously disabled, and the video was promoting to not use the "r" word. I am not going to repeat it here. I also hate that word! This just stirred all of this up in my again this morning. All I can do is hold strong to my Faith and keep praying that my baby will be healthy no matter the outcome.

And i discovered that a vast majority of parents react the same way. The first months were a tough adjustment, and there are some health issues (including open heart surgery) that we needed to go thru. B..." -- BRAD123456

I have prayed for you that God will calm you and give you exactly what you need (HIM) to get through whatever happens. Anyhow, I was reading one of my devotionals this morning and just wanted to share the link, because it was about special needs children. I too think about this, due to my age. I have spoken to so many people wh..." -- JACOBSMOM09
