Sweet reminder

I woke up before anyone else this morning and in the quiet, Jesus just reminded me of several things through this passage:

"If I ride the wings of the morning,
if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
even there your hand will guide me,
and your strength will support me...

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother's womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous- and how well I know it.
You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out
before a single day had passed.

...And when I wake up in the morning, you are still with me!"
~Ps. 139 (NLT)

Just such a sweet reminder that when I feel like he's forgotten about me in my overly pregnant state, he hasn't forgotten. Every day of Isaac's life was set long before we even knew he would be joining our family. All of my attempts to make him come are futile until God says, "Okay, little boy, it's time! Go meet your mommy!"
