Fear of Labour
Writing by Bree on Saturday, 4 of August , 2007 at 6:46 pm
I feel totally vulnerable, these last few weeks of pregnancy really do take it out of you. The thoughts of labour the incredible pain the incredible joy I go between these two emotions a lot.
I am starting to have these thoughts of all the things that could go wrong in the labour ward I know that I shouldn’t have fear because God has not given me a Spirit of Fear I keep telling myself this so as to take those moments of panic away. I know that God is with me and that this birth is going to be beautiful but these thoughts still appear.
I am envisioning a really quick really nice peaceful birth. I would love to have the baby at home in my bathtub, but I would think it safer to have it in hospital with the doctor there in case. I am focusing on and praying for a lovely birth that my husband and I will both enjoy.
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7 AMP
I will keep focusing on this and I know that God will honor it.
