Congratulations on your pregnancy mommy to be!
God has chosen you to become a mother, He has blessed you with the most precious gift. Psalms 127:3 reads "Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him".
I can understand you might feel a bit nervous, some women might feel even anxious or uncertain whether they will be able to give birth. What if I'm not strong enough? Will my baby and I be safe? What if there's a complication? Will I be a good mother? How do I prepare my partner?
Take a deep breath, and acknowledge all the feelings you're feeling. Jesus was human, He understands our emotions coming from the flesh.
God wants to walk with you through those fears. 2 Timothy 1:7 KJV "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." I believe this is how we can approach pregnancy and birth, with power, love and a sound mind.
My heart for this course is not only to equip couples with theoretical knowledge and practical tips of what to do during labour, how to prepare for it mentally and physically, but most importantly to help women to feel connected to God, and to have God in the centre of it all, to truly experience a faith-filled labour, birth and transition to parenthood. Romans 12:2 NIV "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."
You don't need me or this course to have a faith-filled pregnancy, but my prayer for all women is to experience His presence through this exciting but uncertain period in your life. We trust God with our finances, our relationships and our careers, it's time to surrender and trust Him as the creator of our bodies, to grow our babies and guide us to birth our babies.
Blessings
