Thanking God for the gift of Motherhood

I thank God for the gift of being a mother. I count it a great honor to have the privilege of being a mum to God’s children. That God could choose me to be a mum leaves me in awe.

When we had our first daughter, sometimes I would wonder if I was dreaming and would wake up to find that it was all just a pleasant dream, but it was all real.

I used to think that children don’t come with a manual, but they do, read the Bible and pray every day. By His grace, I came to understand that God is the manual for the children and I have to learn of Him.

I thank God for seeing me through: one c-section, one three weeks overdue delivery, one at home delivery and one complicated footling breech delivery. Glory be to our Lord Jesus Christ.
