Fast and Slow

This week marks the 10th week of pregnancy. It’s hard to believe that it’s been nearly a month since the first pictures of the baby in the womb. Time is moving so fast!

The next hospital visit is on February 8th. Kandis and I both will be taking the day off for the hospital visit and to do some more shopping for the baby. I can hardly wait to see the latest pictures of the baby. Time is moving so slow.

And it’s finally Prayer and Fasting month at my church. I’ve been looking forward to this month every since the nurse called and said, “Congratulations”. One reason is because I’m soooooooooo thankful for everything in my life. And the baby is the icing on the cake. We’ve been waiting for this moment for years, but when the announcement came, … well, it all happened so fast!

So this month I will read more, pray more, fast more, and give thanks more. I just wish the baby was here now. It seems that time is moving so slow.
But like everyone else, we have to wait nine months for the baby to develop and arrive. So I continue to be patient. Some days nervous and some days excited. I anoint Kandis’ belly every night, say my prayer, and keep telling myself, “God is always on time, never too fast, never too slow.”
