My worst nightmare came true:
I'm a terrible blogger.
I'm pregnant.
For a while, that was my excuse for not blogging. I couldn't share the news on the world wide web yet but that was ALL I wanted to talk about. And then when I could, I didn't know where to start, so I didn't.
So, for now I suppose I'll share the basics on the subject:
I'm 11 weeks along.
My baby is the size of a large plum.
In one week, we get to hear the heartbeat.
My due date is August 21, 2010.
We should find out the sex in March, I think.
I got real sick for a while but that is starting to go away, thank You Jesus.
As I track the days and weeks, time seems to be creeping by so slowly.
We are VERY excited.
In other news, we're looking for a house. This will be a very interesting time in our life because Weston and I have very differing opinions on things like houses. Our lease on our duplex is up at the end of February and after that we have to pay $100 extra a month. That is WAY more money than I want to pay for this place so I'm feeling a bit of pressure. I don't think Weston's in a hurry at all. We've only just begun this process and I already feel hopeless. We shall see where this leads.
I feel like God is trying to teach me something during this season of my life but I can't quite grasp it. I know that the solution to this is to daily spend time with Him but I am at a loss for motivation. I find myself being jealous of my friends that do daily spend time with Him- that is radiated through their lives. I know that all it will take is discipline. I'm looking for that. I'm searching for the motivation to not be brought down by the simple day to day tasks of this life, but to live for Something More. We shall see where this leads as well.

I know what you mean about going through the seasons where you have no motivation. That's tough.
ReplyDeleteI finally got to the place to where I shared openly and verbally to the Lord everything I felt/thought about it. (and yes, I meant to put all the following WANT TO's) "I want to want to read Your word. I want to want to love it and have a passion for it. Will you please put that desire into my soul.... it will not come by me forcing myself. You and only You will satisfy."
And He will Meagan. Just keep begging Him and telling Him how you truly feel. He longs for that just as much (and more) than you do. But isn't it good to know that He loves you... JUST BECAUSE. No matter how much you read everyday.
Praying for you, Our God is faithful. Love you, Prego Meago.
ReplyDeleteI am glad we now have it open WORLD WIDE! :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with homes, we are once again in the same boat lol :)
Love you sis!
Um. Meagan...once again you prove that we are friends for a reason. I'm dealing with the same issue right now too. I feel as if my time with God's word is forced. I do it, but I'm not drawing from it. I'll pray for you if you'll pray for me? Remember that one time we meet once a week and just talked about God and life. That really shaped me.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to call you soon, or you call me when you're not busy. It'd be good to encourage each other. Love you girl
