Thinking back on my son’s birth I can’t help but get emotional every single time. It was seriously one of those moments that change your life. It’s so special and an ordained moment that the Lord has ultimately established.
I remember wanting to have the worship playing throughout my whole laboring time. I knew I wanted to be just consumed in worship and I knew I would need ALL THE STRENGTH from the Lord to help through this labor.
Being a first-time mom I didn’t know much and I was nervous yet excited. I wanted scriptures on post-its in my delivery room. I knew reading (or having my husband read them) was really going to bring the encouragement and peace I would need at that moment.
I pray that you will have a safe and amazing delivery whether it’s your first or 4th,5th,6th baby.
Print them out, save them on your phone, write them on post-it notes, or even pray them over you and baby!
