He's here!

There just aren't words for how grateful we are to God for this little bundle!

After so much waiting and "angst in my soul" last my week, God was completely faithful in every detail. I need to make a list before the sleep-deprivation steals all those details from my memory, but I am just amazed at how God was there through every step of the way - and continues to be.

These verses from Psalm 138 were what I clung to on Thursday as we were making the decision about induction ... and now, I find them the cry of my heart as we embark on this journey of parenthood:

"On the day I called You answered me,
My strength of soul you increased.
The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me.
Your steadfast love O Lord endures forever
Do not forsake the work of Your hands." (v. 3, 8)

How amazing to know that God had planned Benjamin's birth before time began, and even now, He knows all of Benjamin's days. What an awesome God we serve!
