Waiting

John Waller - While I'm Waiting Lyrics
I'm waiting, I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful, I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful, But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
 

While I'm waiting, I will serve You
While I'm waiting, I will worship
While I'm waiting, I will not faint
I'll be running the race, Even while I wait

I'm waiting, I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful, I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy, But faithfully, I will wait

This song has been in my head lately. There's 10 days today til my due date. Lana was born 4 days early, so if this one is the same, then I've got less than a week til this one will be here. In some ways I feel so ready - this pregnancy has been so long and so emotional for us and I'm ready for our little one to be here so we can start our life together with her. But in other ways I don't feel ready at all - I still feel in so many ways completely unprepared. Actually, I still haven't even finished packing my hospital bag yet. Sometimes I feel like I could go into labour any time - I'm having far more contractions than I did with Lana at this stage (or maybe I just recognise the signs more this time around), but then I also feel like it might happen a bit later this time as well. 

I guess there's not much really I can do at this stage besides just waiting. And packing my hospital bag. But mostly, I know I just need to wait...
