Motherhood Changed Me, in a Good Way

I

With my firstborn, when I suddenly realized I was 2 months pregnant and going to become a mom so soon, I was in complete shock and some frustration, as if cheated in time, as a newlywed. I didn’t feel ready or excited at first.
Once I came to my senses, I realized the irreplaceable gift God had given my womb. Now I look back and see the selfishness of my initial reaction. And, I also see the growth. God knew I needed Hudson to change unhealthy habits/attributes in my life- including learning selflessness.

AND, once I became a mom, it didn’t take long to step into this God given role, because God created women to nurture. He blessed my life with this child and their is NO career or time I would trade for my son. He was not an accident, a mistake, a glitch, a problem, a bump in the road, etc. God allowed this to happen to bring about my spiritual growth. How can I question that HIS timing was wrong for me?
Becoming a young mom- with God’s direction, has been one of the most rewarding and fulfilling experiences of my life. I pray more women can know this too.💕
