Thank God for Dr. Bacha

Infant care in this season.  Care for infants should be considerate if you want considerate children , although this is no guarantee still emulation should win the day ordinarily.

Especially if they’ve been sick they need more attention, more food and more sleep…  Sanitizing surfaces is a very important remembrance and helping them process what they are feeling it might be feeling is also important.  Motherhood is being demeaned and diminished, but I don’t think it an accident that people call people who are repugnant sons of you know what’s?  That isn’t an accident,  if you act like a female dog, so will they for certain.  Self controlled and uncomplaining attitudes are prayed for and difficult when mothering.  There is much to make you sullen and cross.  You aren’t the center of attention and much aching of your body can make you negative.  Optimism is key!  Thank God for my dear baby doctor who continually helped me to look to nest week for an end to the stinging breasts.  It was Gods blessing.  He sympathized like no one else did.  Everybody tells you to suck it up, mom included.  He stuck his finger in baby’s mouth and said, that must really hurt.  All I can tell you is next week it won’t hurt as bad.  That was enough for me. I was able to endure for the long haul and become a real advocate for nursing, after awhile. Don’t think that it is going to be easy and automatic. Sometimes it is, but it wasn’t for me. A naturalist Doctor helped me amazingly and I thank God every day that he was in my life!

Thank God for Fred Hammond



I love that God knows my language is music and gave Fred Hammond the pen to write the truth of God’s love directly into my heart!

I am sure that I would be bereft in my knowledge of the truth of God’s love, were it not for someone who has language that is mine to express it to me.  I have studied the Puritans and it nearly killed me.  I couldn’t see God’s love anywhere in their writings.  I saw laws and rules and promises to some and not to others.  I saw God’s holiness and unapproachableness.  I felt completely left out of the promises of God in the study of the Puritans.  I am nearly sure that the angels were shaking their heads in that time of history saying “how did they get that out of looking at the God that we know?”

Fred is certainly a CH Spurgeon to my soul.  I couldn’t see God for all of my study of Him.  I went far and near and I found many wonderful people of God who were blessed to be truer Christians for the study of the Puritans.  I told God, I don’t want to be deceived, please guide me! and I believed that he had my steps ordered, but if it wasn’t for the trumpet of Fred Hammond in the underlying background music of my study of what does the Lord require. I would have missed him completely.

Thank God for Him and the beautiful expressions that helped me to see God in my journey through the darkness of the caverns of grief that God led me through with the lantern of an auditory eye.

I think many children suffer from the darkness that I have suffered and I do hope that there are many other men and women who can speak their languages of faith.
Amen.
