Update: still waiting
I apologize for having spoken too soon...After 3 and a half days of nearly constant contractions, my sister has still not given birth. What she is experiencing is prodromal labor, which the doctors say can go on for a few days before progressing into actual labor. I feel awful for my sister; she is exhausted from the contractions and anxious for her son to arrive.
Accept, O Lord, my thanks and praise for all that you have done for me. I thank you for the splendor of the whole creation, for the beauty of this world, for the wonder of life, and for the mystery of love. Above all, I thank you for your Son Jesus Christ; for the truth of His Word and the example of his life; for his steadfast obedience, by which he overcame death; and for his rising to life again, in which we are raised to the life of your kingdom. Amen.
