Birth for tomorrow
Thank God for modern medical technology! We are getting ready to celebrate the birth of my new niece/nephew. S/he’ll be born tomorrow, if all goes according to schedule. Yes, to schedule.
The little one (yes, we know if it’s a boy or a girl—it’s not a kitten—but I don’t know if I’m supposed to tell) was inked into the agenda last May or June, I think. September 21 became a significant day to all of us in the clan well before Sister 2 goes into labor. Which, I think, she won’t do.
Please pray for her and baby for tomorrow’s special day. And, please, help me find those verses in the New Testament that talk about a woman going into labor… Isn’t there something biblical about that?

Prayers said for all concerned. What an exciting time, anticipating the birth of a new family member!
According to “Bible Gateway,” I found these two passages in the NT: Gal. 4:27; I Thess.5:3. I know there are bound to be others, but I can’t call them up in my memory. But there are tons of them in the OT.

Yes, that’s the one. Good Job.
“While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.”

Congrats on the new family member. We’ll pray that everything goes according to schedule.

Been praying…your sisters make beautiful “expectant” mothers. Good genes, I guess.

randy: Crossing over blogs here, but maybe YOU are having the hot flashes. “They” say memory loss sometimes goes along with them!!
