This is for Baby Gilbert and his/her impatient family!

We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:22, 23, 25, 28 NIV)

God has to stop doing that. This was my study tonight. Most people know that we are anxiously awaiting our 6th grandchild. We are NOT waiting patiently. So God sends me these verses from Romans. its not by chance, its by God! 

In the midst of our busy schedules everyone has a request for when the baby arrives. My granddaughter Hannah doesn't want it born on her birthday (Saturday) or her party day (Sunday). I have a CMA meeting on Saturday, BGIII can't be born then. Brian has to work 7-7 on Tuesday so Lindsae doesn't want the baby born on Monday. This is crazy! 

All things work for the good of those who love him. We all love him, SO it will all work out!

My entire life can be summed up by the impatience for the birth of this baby!
