God, I know I’ve been complaining A LOT lately, and I’m sorry. Please help me to surrender to your will – I’m not sure how to do it.
Thank you for our newest little one – a son! We are so happy and praise you for forming this little one in your image and blessing us with him. Please keep him safe and healthy until he is in our arms and for his whole life. Thank you for blessing me with motherhood, one of the greatest gifts in life. I love you Lord Jesus, Amen. :crossrc: :love:
 
Father, please keep watch over this little life and that of his mother and father that they will all flourish in Your glory. And forgive us all when we complain. You know how guilty I am of this as well. Please guide us through as we sometimes struggle to acept Your will for our lives. In the name of Your son Jesus I humbly pray. Amen.
 
From today’s Liturgy of the Hours:

Prayers and Intercessions

By his blood and through the Holy Spirit, Christ offered his own self to the Father to purify us from the works of death. Let us worship him in all sincerity:
  • Lord, in your will is our peace.
Your goodness has given us the beginning of a new day:
give us also the beginning of a new life.
You created everything and by your providence you keep it in being:
may we discern your handiwork in every created thing.
With your blood you sealed the new and everlasting covenant:
may we keep our side of the bargain by following your precepts.
As you hung on the cross, water poured out mixed with blood:
may that saving stream wash away our sins and make the city of God rejoice.

Our Father, who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those that trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Grant, we ask you, almighty God,
that the praise that we have offered you this morning,
we may offer you again, even more, with your saints in eternity.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God for ever and ever.
Amen.
 
Congratulations and may God bless you all for all of your days! Enjoy, children are a wonderful gift from God!

Amen to that…😃
 
Belle, That was a beautiful prayer of praise and thanksgiving. I will keep you in my prayers and your family, most especially the little one you carry, and soon to carry in your arms. Babies are such a special blessing. I pray that all women would be as grateful for that little life as you are.
 
Praise to God for your baby boy. Thank you Holy Father for this beautiful baby, Praises to God forever, amen
