Day 10- Pregnant With A Promise

His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

- 2 Peter 1:3-4

I can still recall the anticipation of our first pregnancy! Pam and I had purposely waited almost 6 years before having children. The day the news came that she was pregnant, how proud I was! This set in motion a change that led us on a nine month journey of expectation of a promise. When the birth day finally came, and I held that 6 pounds of joy, my emotions overwhelmed me. Words were insufficient to express my love for my wife who struggled to bring this life into existence, but most of all to God, who delivered such a beautiful promise into our lives.

Yet, I continue to be amazed at God’s promises for our lives. He truly cares! All His “great and precious promises” will come to pass in our lives as we trust him.

 


Today’s Thought

Today’s Prayer

Our Father, we thank you for your love and your promises and know that in your time all these promises will be fulfilled. Renew me O Lord and keep my heart pure before you every day.
