Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friend………

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son……John 3:16

     To this day, Aunt Bobby’s words still ring in my ears, “When you have that baby, you’ll feel a different kind of love.   You will love that child like nothing or no one you have ever loved before.” She was so right!  Having Noah has been a life-changing experience for me.  The pregnancy was pretty good. I can’t complain because I wasn’t very sick, but the labor process was unbearable.  Being in labor for three days with non-stop pain was something to talk about. I do not know what I would have done without the support of my husband, Wayne. I was in so much pain I thought I would die. However, on the third day, 8:03 pm August 20^th 2007 my labor was not in vain. We had a beautiful, healthy, 6lbs 1oz baby boy. While going through those pains I cried out to Jesus so many times to help me, and I reflected on Him on the cross. The pains He bore, the beating and how His Father must have felt seeing His Son in such agony. Jesus was willing to bear those pain and sufferings for me, sinful as I am because He loves me. This love is unconditional, we didn’t earn it nor do we deserve it but He still loved us anyway. He was willing to do and take anything for us and He did. Those beatings, scorns, being spat upon and hung on a cross to die, it was for us.
