Living in Miracles

What can a man do to live? Living itself is a miracle. How can a man breathe in and out and/or when the cells grow and every part of body grows & function??? What is it that makes a person to feel, speak, think, eat and move? Isn't it God, the Creator, who simply is an expert at creating miracles?

What we prayed for since we got married was a miracle! We wanted to start a family right away, but it was not in our hand to create a life. For we know that it is not us who create, but God who is the Creator! Well, we tried. We tried again and again and waited. We even considered the "alternative" way (faster way: medical help). But at the end, we decided to wait upon the Lord and for His time.

God's timing and His will is what we wanted and prayed for. God heard our prayers and fulfilled our desire. Ten months into the marriage, it suddenly came. I was beyond Cloud Nine. It was so amazing to feel the miracle, but more than that, it is so amazing and humbling to know that God is there to tend my need & want. He was there! He was near and He answered our prayers!

I wasn't so discouraged or let down when we lost the baby in 6 weeks. I was still glowing with the fact that God can create a being in my old body! I was hopeful and I started to pray again. And He picked the best time of all to have me conceive again. Right after a mission trip to Bangladesh where I was blessed to teach the VBS program for a week. It was just a Perfect Time... just how He got us together in marriage. God just knows the perfect time~

So, here I am on my 20th week. God is still keeping this miracle in me! How the skin of my tummy stretches, I don't know. How I hear two different rhythm of heart beats at night when I lay on my side, ears down on my bed, I don't know. What I do know is that Our Creator, God Almighty, has performed a wonderful miracle in me and I believe Him! Like Sarah in the Bible, I can't stop smiling, praising the Lord for this beautiful miracle!!!

The baby finally kicked me about four times this morning around 5 a.m. God is alive and He is so real... just like our baby in me. Living in miracles and knowing that He loves ALL His children, including me, is so wonderful to fathom! Like His miracles, His love truly is something that I can't never understand fully, but I am so glad and so grateful for it!
