Finding Contentment

For those of you who are checking for baby updates...She is coming no later than Tuesday at 3:00! Or he. I got a pedicure from this lady who through her thick accent said, "No, no, No! You having a BOY. The way you carry is a BOY." Well I saw girl parts, but you never know...

Here are the verses that I am meditating on these next few days as we prepare for her arrival! I thought you might pray them for me or yourself. Also, while your saying your prayers, lift up my friend Terra who is due soon too!

Scriptures for Maggie's birthday: New International Version

Philippians 4:4-8
4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
