Praying

So one of the great things about where I work is that I get to meet a lot of pastors. Going through this, I have had many of them pray with me over the phone and check on me to see how things are going. The other day, I had a pastor come in and tell me that God has already answered my prayers, He has a baby for me and I need to be ready for it. He told me to go buy some baby clothes, and to start praying over them daily, and to let God know that I am ready for the baby he has for me. Well, a few months ago I had found this website that had baby clothes for people who have dealt with infertility. I loved them, and I asked my sister in law if she wouldnt mind creating them for me. She of course didnt mind, and they were ready this week! I am so excited to finally have them, and Tim and I are going to take the advice of the pastor who came to my office. We are going to hang up the clothes, trying to find the perfect place, and pray over them daily. We want God to know that we are ready for our baby, and that we are going to come to Him daily and ask Him for him or her. Here is part of my infertility devotion for today,

"Go to 1 Samuel, and take a seat next to Hannah.  She’s weeping profusely in the temple as she once again brings her petition for a child.  Her infertile heart has waited for years and years and she has observed Peninnah’s pregnancies progress time after time.  Now we see her burdened down in the temple weeping and crying again.  Scripture tells us that Hannah had cried until there were no more tears left to cry.  Her lips were moving, but no words were coming out of her mouth.  God didn’t need volume to hear her hurt.  He heard her heart’s cry even though no sound escaped her lips.  He responded to the desperation of this woman, and to the faith she had in her unseen God." 
Here are pictures of the baby clothes created for our baby that God has already planned for us
