Hi my friends!!! Today was Noah's dedication at church. It was a beautiful ceremony. It was actually the most time we have ever heard the Pastor spend on any dedication. It was truly special.
It was also an extremely emotional and actually difficult thing for me to do. I really struggled but knew that we had to do it. Noah is a blessing, and just because I have issues doesn't mean he does
I had been sending my emails to the prayer leader and allowed her to spread my prayer request around the church. Well Noah is now famous in that church. Everyone knows about us and Noah. So knowing that so many people were thinking of us and praying for us, really touched my heart. It showed my God's love.
So people kept coming up and sharing how they have been praying for us and asking how we were. They all saw me throughout my pregnancy and were so excited about it, they knew that the pregnancy itself was a miracle, since I thought that I would never be able to have children ( long story). So it is like this church has been on this journey with us.
So I cried today as soon as we got in the church, and I was just so so emotional, everything, hurting inside, and you know what helped me, through God of course was
Thinking about all of you, my friends. I pictured you surrounding me holding your special children, adn just cheering me on, knowing that you know everything I feel without saying a word, like No one else can. Even though I do not know you or what you looked like, I could picture your smiling faces, telling me that everything is alright and is just going to keep getting better. I could feel your hugs.
So even though you didn't know it, I just wanted to Thank you because you were with me all the way today.
I know that there may be many times in the future where only thinking of all of you will give me strength, and not leaving me feeling all alone.
God Bless You All
Love,
Jessika
