They that wait.

A little over a week ago my husband and I had a talk. I think we are throwing babes back on the table. I have always wanted to have more children- lots of children. Not having children goes against my belief that children are a blessing. A BLESSING. This culture that I live in does not match up with that. They say that children are a burden- they cost too much, take up too much time.... I disagree. I see God's blessings with each child and there has never not been enough for each of them. I have also seen this in friend's lives. With each step God increases.
The only thing stopping me has been my tired body. I have a pelvic floor prolapse and a diastisis. Which means that all the muscles that helped bare my babes are tired. This morning I conquered my overwhelming physio exercises. Before they looked so difficult and left me sore for the day. This morning they became easy and clear in my mind to memorize, instead of reading off of the sheet, and they felt so good, like I was stretching from the inside out.
I am adding this to my prayers of this year. I am hoping for a new child. I don't exactly know what that looks like, and I still have moments that overwhelm, but I am putting my hope in my God.
I will find patience and strength in Him. For they that wait on the Lord will renew their strength. (Isaiah 40).
