Awaiting His Mercies

I lift up my eyes to the hills, were does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. (Ps 121:1-2)

Inbetween dizziness and bad morning sickness, I’m thankful to the Lord for this life He has borne in me, a miracle gift to us.

Yes, Baby M for Baby Miracle.

Yesterday’s second ultrasound scan showed lil BB to be 2.1 cm, approx 9 weeks old. As we watched its little form, attached to the upper part of my uterus, my heart melted when it started wriggling as Dr Fong pressed the scanner on my abdomen. So little, yet it wriggles! It was a sight I could not forget.

Watching lil BB wriggle was especially precious to me as we had never seen or felt Hannah move due to her swollen condition. So when I saw the lilone fidgit, the feeling that overcame me was indescribable. It’s so beautiful to watch your baby move while in the womb – it looked almost like a sign of health to me. A sign from God that this baby is well.

Sometimes I do fear that all the medication and IUI procedure we underwent unknowingly, might have hurt the lil one and affected its development. But still, no point worrying. Mum reminds me again and again that I have to truly rest in the Lord and that can happen only when I touch the throneroom of God in praise and worship. Yup my hope and trust is truly in the Lord alone. What can I do but stand and watch His deliverance?

Lord, help me to please you even in this journey. Let me grow in faith and godly wisdom and let me grown in love for and fear of you.
