Where would I be?

Where would I be without friends who take care of me?

Well, for starters:

• Baby Z's room would not be painted
• The chair rail would not be up
• I would only have 5 baby outfits
• I would not have 100+ outfits to wash and put away
• I wouldn't have had them all put away right now
• Baby's closet would still be a mess
• The changing table would still be in disarray
• The crib sheet would not be on, ready to welcome Baby Z
• I would not have 20 people praying this Baby doesn't come on a Saturday (while Drew is 2 hours away, from 4am-8pm)
• I would not have had money for a car seat
• I would have had cereal for dinner Saturday night
• AND SO MUCH MORE!

The LORD is good, and He give me good things, like amazing friends who pray for us, and generously give, and come over and help when I am overwhelmed.

I wish you could have heard my friend Jen sing in church yesterday, but you will just have to get by with the words:

How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds

In a believer's ear!

It soothes his sorrow, heals his wounds,

And drives away his fear.
