Wedding anniversaries are indeed special moments for every couple. I will never forget the few days before our first wedding anniversary. It was when we found out that I was pregnant with our first child. That was indeed the best wedding anniversary gift and surprise from the Lord. I could proudly put that as the story of a lifetime first anniversary gift. You see, we thought that we were not yet prepared to have our 1st child. We only wanted to conceive after 2 years of marriage. But God had a better plan. What was amazing was that a few days before I knew that I was pregnant, I was reading the Book of Ecclesiastes. The words from Ecclesiastes 3 ( A time for everything) has indeed been a rhema to my heart. And the morning before my test, I read this
As you do not know the path of the wind,
or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb,
so you cannot understand the work of God,
the Maker of all things.
It was like a prelude to what was going to happen next. As I've said, I thought I wasn't prepared to have a child so, it was like God's assurance that it is God's will and He makes everything beautiful in His time.
And indeed, it is no regret to having our child at such time. God has indeed blessed us with a beautiful child and has made us capable of raising her for the past 6 years. Praise the Lord!
