Zechariah 8:12-13

“The seed will grow well, the vine will yield its fruit, the ground will produce its crops, and the heavens will drop their dew. I will give all these things as an inheritance to the remnant of this people. As you have been an object of cursing among the nations, O Judah and Israel, so will I save you, and you will be a blessing. Do not be afraid, but let your hands be strong.”

My husband and I went to the first ultrasound with this pregnancy – we’re calling the baby Biscuit until we know whether it’s a girl or boy – yesterday. And there was a baby! With a heartbeat! And little kicking arms and legs! Hooray!!!!!

I know the parallel isn’t perfect – or even, well, there – but it’s just good to be reminded that God plans good things for me, even after bad things have happened.

And very good to remember that I don’t have to be afraid.
