Trusting God - Part 2

God is amazing!
I know that this is a fact, and it is not redundant or a cliche to say this over and over again!

He is so loving and so gracious. Here's why:

I went in to the doctor's office for a follow up. My pregnancy check-up appointment is not until next week. However, my OB told me that she will do an ultrasound shortly after looking at my chart. I was nervous to find out the truth after my last week's conditions (spotting, sickness, etc.). I plead to the Lord that I would not lose this child... Not this one...

Well, God has shorten my waiting time to find out my pregnancy today. My doctor was prompt and quick. She and I watched the screen and saw two-peanut size baby with heart beats. A white stick-like icon kept on moving forward repeatly from that tiny peanut size body. That is the heart beating!

It was amazing! Our baby is alive and not only that, s/he is doing really well. The doctor explained to me the baby's condition from her observation and assured me that s/he is looking great. What a relief and hope this was!!! I can only praise God for this!

There I was fearing the miscarriage and was nervous, then God calmed my soul and answered my prayers. Many people's prayers. God is so good! He is so loving and so gracious to grant us the precious little life to go on in my womb. Wow~ I walked out of the doctor's office in amazement and such a light weight that my feet must not touched the ground. :)

I immediately called my husband. Then my mom. From there on, the news of God's wonderful miracle spread. I felt the deep love of God today... It is such a comfort to know the trustworthy God who is so loving and caring for His children... and His children's children...

Trusting God - Part 1

A friend of mine recently sent me an email with the following content:

"GOD IS GOOD
...ALL THE TIME
When God leads you to the edge of the cliff, trust Him fully and let go, only 1 of 2 things will happen, either He'll catch you when you fall, or He'll teach you how to fly! 'The power of one sentence! God is going to shift things around for you today and let things work in your favor. God closes doors no man can open & God opens doors no man can close. If you need God to open some doors for you... [believe it and send a prayer.] ..."
[ ] is mine

I like the analogy of Him teaching and leading us to 'trust' Him - believe in His ability that He will do the impossible for us in our lives and that He will empower us to do the unthinkable! Secondly, it is clearly directing our mind/heart to 'depend' on Him for any fear. After all, it is the hardest thing to do, isn't it?

Perhaps we think that we can do that "trusting God" part. But "trusting" requires us to "let go" of our doubts and continually, moment by moment. It demands us to rely on what and whom we believe. Recently (and somewhat still now), I'm going through "the edge of the cliff"experience. I can not even begin to describe my heart's fear and sorrow on a possible loss. I cried and prayed that it will not happen to me again. I feared and grieved for an "what if."

So, I open my blurry eyes to see what God is going to do. My heart searched for the "door(s)" to open, some light of hope to shine in, and to understand the unknown truth & blessings. God is good. He is still good to me. Yea, even though this loss is not an easy one to "let go"...

All I can do is to wait. Wait on the Lord. He will help me, I know. He will get me through...
