I’ve actually written a blog about this topic before but I want to bring it up againi because I hope it can bring you peace just like it did for me.
No one can truly prepare you for the emotions that come over you the moment your newborn baby is placed in your arms. I knew I would love her but I can’t even put into words how much I do. I just knew that from that point forward there was nothing I wouldn’t do for her. It was also terrifying. My job is to protect her and to keep her safe but in such a scary world.. She literally needs me to function right now but this is all so new to me too.. how do I be a good mom? Will I even be a good mom? These doubts and anxieties can creep in pretty quickly if you are not careful.
Being a new parent is scary. I want to keep my baby in a bubble and hide her away from all the evil of this world but unfortunately we just can’t. But in the midst of any fear, anxiety or doubt, God says to us “but do you know the number of hairs on their head?” (Luke 12:7)
No, I obviously don’t know how many hairs are on her head. All I know is she’s losing a lot of them haha! God loves our children so much. He created them. He has a plan and a purpose for every little thing they will encounter in their life. Of course we will still worry- I’d be concerned if we didn’t but ultimately we can surrender those fears to God because He loves them more & that gives me peace!
