By His Grace

The other evening I went to a hospital to visit someone who was going to have a baby. I went up to the maternity wing of the hospital and on the way to her room (she had not yet had her baby), I took a wrong turn and landed on the hall that had the baby nursery...the one that I've seen in plenty of movies and television shows. The one I have had dreams about myself. You know, it's the one that has the large, clear window that has newborns inside.

I slowly walked past it a couple of times (I honestly was lost...I should have gone straight after getting off the elevator but I turned instead) and just looked inside. A really strange feeling came over me and tears came to my eyes. No, I wasn't sad or grieving. It was such a happy feeling. I was so happy because I know that within the next few months that I will be back at a hopsital looking through that window at my son or daughter and I cannot wait for that day to come. I get so excited just thinking about it and then seeing those babies the other night just made me that much more happy. I keep wondering what my son our daughter is going to look like and even though he or she will more than likely look nothing like us, I don't care. I don't care what our baby looks like because I know he/she will be absolutely beautiful. All things from God are beautiful and perfect and that is how our baby will be.

By the way, I updated my song list on the blog. I still have the ever-so-appropriate "Just Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Buble. I also added "Our God" by Chris Tomlin. Our church sings this from time to time and I usually have it on repeat on my ipod. It's such a great song describing our God and how truly magnificent He is. I love it when they talk about Him being the Healer. It's so very, very true. This song just makes my day whenever I hear it! I would have to say it is my favorite worship song right now.
