It's a GIRL!!!!

I am so excited to share with everyone that Brooks and I are having a Baby Girl! We were so ecstatic when we got the news! I had a feeling it was a girl and I kept dreaming it was, and it was true.



The baby also looks very healthy & normal and already almost weighs a pound. It was so cool seeing her two legs, two arms, 10 tiny fingers & 10 tiny toes. Babies are such miracles.



I am so thankful for this gift from God. Some of you may know that Brooks and I thought we may never be able to have our own children when I was diagnosed with PCOS and after trying so long for Caleb. We were actually beginning the adoption process when we found out we were pregnant with Caleb. I am so thankful that the Lord has blessed me with not only one but another wonderful baby. I know we have a way to go until she here, but I am just so happy!!! Thank you Jesus!



I am truly in awe with my Lord & Savior. I have really been on a journey these last few months and I am learning the true gospel. The gospel that makes me realize how dirty & rotten I am, but how my Jesus saved me and everyone else despite what we are. We don't deserve his gift but he gave it and we should take and share him with everyone.



It's funny, Brooks and I were talking yesterday about how before coming to New City Church if you asked me what the gospel was, I would probably be like"uh, the first four books of the New testament." Unfortunately, religion has watered down Jesus to a nice story or a part of the bible. But He is what it's all about! Cover to cover it's all about him! It is so heart breaking that many modern day churches hardly even mention Jesus--except maybe in prayer---but he is the whole story- the beginning, the middle, the end. I hope that others will have their hearts and minds opened.



I have a long way to go in this journey. More humbleness to learn, more religion to scrap away, and I know I am a work in progress, but I am so thankful he is giving me a second chance.
