Every new baby brings joy, excitement, and fear of

Every new baby brings joy, excitement, and fear of the unknown.
I find myself struggling with many fears central to whether I live out what I believe the gospel says; I find myself asking whether “I can sufficiently raise this child? Can I raise FIVE kids well?”
Every new baby challenges my need for security apart from God. Am I putting my safety in my sleep, my work, my ability to manage a household, my children, my husband, or my friends? My fears often pop up as little reminders that I need to trust God minute-by-minute, day-by-day, hour-by-hour.
God's grace is sufficient, but I still want ____.
I still want to know I am adequate, which is where the battle for me often is.
I want to feel secure knowing that I can do this.
I still want to strive to achieve great things
Yet, God in this season is calling me to lay it down. When we reach the end of human limits, it invites us to ask the question:
Where am I not letting God be God in my own life?????
My hope is in 1 Peter 1:13.
My hope is not in my self-sufficiency, but in God's grace and sufficiency.
It’s often harder to proclaim God's grace and not rely on my perfection as a mother.#chasingsacred

I am WRITING a BOOK!!!!
The craziest part about announcing that I’m writing a traditionally published book to you all is that writing a book was a FRUSTRATED desire for me, one that I finally laid down at HIS feet one afternoon in the car pick-up line for school.
I told the Lord I was DONE chasing writing a book; I just wanted to pursue him. I was ready to surrender the desire. (Since every door had closed)
And within 24-hours, I was contacted by a publishing house asking if I’d consider writing a book.
Then I decided to take a month off social media, and within two weeks, I had another publishing house 🏡 ask me to write a book. Within three months, God had put me into the eyes of 4 publishing houses, and the process began!
You guys!!!! The week I gave birth, I signed a contract with @tyndalehouse with the help of my fantastic agent @debbiealsdorf but really… it was ALL GOD doing his thang!
For more of the inside scoop, the whole story will be sent to my email list! But, my good friends threw me a books & baby party & I signed the contract the same week I gave birth 😂🤣

You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed (Psalm 139:15–16, NLT)

SWIPE & SAVE
In our human economy, we feel stagnant as the days roll by, and we believe that time can pass. But, like water is constantly in motion, and the sea creatures never sleep, underneath the glassy ocean is a God who is always working, and always on time.
God created time, it is strategic and organized. From the very beginning time was how he laid out the earth. Systematic and non-chaotic, the rhythms of our lives and days show us a God who is sovereign and in control.
My human “due date” has come and gone, boasting a %5 accuracy where some babies are born on that appointed day.
Yet, it reminds me of the futility of a human's appointed time.
Humans are vain at best in determining the right time for things.
“You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed” (Psalm 139:15–16, NLT).
The specificity of the Psalms, and Ecclesiastes shows us your time is not being wasted, your waiting is not in vain, and your God is sovereign.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-10
New International Version
A Time for Everything
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot
