Mine is only 2 1/2 yrs old, so I'm not to that stage yet, but even just in the every day - what am I doing to help her see that she is not the center of the universe, but that we should be serving Christ and others first? I actually wrote a post about that not long ago... it's a hard balance to keep!<br /><br />Thanks for the reminder!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369662617248103139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865279882351428484.post-51901703451774439212009-07-04T09:34:27.708-05:002009-07-04T09:34:27.708-05:00Love the "Random Thoughts"!Love the "Random Thoughts"!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00769287987158346487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865279882351428484.post-16409226506515455022009-07-03T16:52:33.932-05:002009-07-03T16:52:33.932-05:00I too have wondered about those people who take th...I too have wondered about those people who take their children out late at night.

I too, feel such compassion and love for these women who are making decisions (at probably such a young age) that will affect them forever. Our baby will grow up feeling loved and secure and not know any different than a loving home. It is the birthmother who is making the ultimate sacrifice for us. I truly feel so unworthy.MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12933602709751520328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2865279882351428484.post-28789957010002123832009-04-24T08:55:00.000-05:002009-04-24T08:55:00.000-05:00Thanks Stacey.

I have always thought you were an intelligent Christian who was devout in her faith, but because I knew you and Chad I also knew you were just as weak as the rest of us. So when I read this series on your blog I am saying to myself "She is finally admitting it! She is finally coming clean. Literally and spiritually". That is why this whole experience with Bob Flayhart has been amazing for me. I sat there while he was lecturing to my class and knew God was speaking to me that day. These past three weeks have been God saying you need to let me put all the pieces of the puzzle to your life together. I brought you back to Montevallo when you didn't think you wanted to go. I am bringing you a teacher who is sincere. God can not steer a boat tied to a dock and I think we have both let go of the steering wheel. Great post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
