meet... Benjamin Neal!!! 12-10-18

Snapshots from this morning 

I'm rocking this little bundle of preciousness as I write this, he is perfect and healthy and we're all so happy he's here!!

He was born last night at 8:08, after 6 hours of labor. He weighed 8.8 and measured 20. 

After he was born the placenta took a little too long and Mom hemmoraged some. We were preparing to go to the hospital but she turned the corner just in time!! The tinctures worked and she's getting as much rest as she can. We're so thankful for the midwife and that everything turned out okay!! And we're all so in love with our little Benji!! Thank you for praying and please keep it up, pray for quick recovery especially!!

Trust in the Lord

What does "Trusting in the Lord" really mean?
To me it means-
surrendering yourself completely unto the Lord.
 and, resting in that.

   Don't worry about tomorrow
   Don't worry about what the future holds
   Don't worry about getting sick
 
Instead be thankful for everything you have and live your life to the fullest, serving God in everything you do.
Don't let a day go past where you can't look back on it and say, I did what God wanted me to, and now the rest is in His hands.

I would love to hear your thoughts about what it means to you to really trust in the Lord. He is Mighty and more than worthy to be praised!
Thanks for reading! Have a blessed day!
