Showers of Blessings Series: 1. Addition and Multiplication

April, besides being one of the rainiest months in the year, is "blessings" month! I will be sharing all of God's amazing blessings from the last months in a series I call Showers of Blessings. Today, I will start with the 'most precious' blessing of all:


In the Summer of 2016, my husband and I beheld The LORD's handiwork...on a tiny screen. Not only did The LORD bless us with the ministry of addition (when we got married), but He blessed us again with the ministry of multiplication! Yes, we were expecting and got to see our precious little baby on an ultrasound screen!


We were humbled and meditative about this gift. This would be a brand new ministry to us both and we felt our need of direction and instruction. Although there were anxieties, inadequacies and questions that flooded our minds, we were encouraged knowing if The LORD was blessing us with this precious gift, He would guide us on how to raise His child.

On an early morning in late February, labor pains indicated a child was about to be born. Our precious son was born healthy, sleepy and ready to bless our home and family with lots of love, and we have never been the same since.


It has truly been a blessing to be a parent these last few weeks. Despite the lack of sleep and having to learn on-the-spot at times, we are more blessed than ever before! Thank you Lord for this tremendous privilege!
