Scott did a lesson today on obedience. How we obey God not because we are fearful of the consequences but because we love Him and want to obey Him. Just like we do things for our spouse because we know they prefer things done a certain way, not because we are afraid of them. For us it is keeping the kitchen clean and clutter free. I could care less if the dishes dry for a day or two ha ha, but that drives Scott crazy, so we put them away. Anyway once we know our Father through meditating on His word and praying (communicating) with Him, our hearts turn more towards Him and His will for our life, for our family. I know that this has been true in my life, the more I focus on God the easier it is to be obedient....not to say that we don't get a curve ball or two, but for the most part life is easier.
As far as our little one....we are waiting for more paperwork. I personally will be happy when the paperwork will stop... ha ha. We don't know his favorite thing, color, food or what size clothes he wears, but we are still so excited. We know that God's
timing is perfect and that our son will be here before we know it :-). We did get a picture, but we are waiting until we have a date to go get him before we post it on the blog.
I am so excited for you!
