She goes on to say, “There’s a great Bible verse that says ‘Children are an inheritance from the Lord.’ And, I think that, that says it so perfectly. That to have a baby is the ultimate blessing…I never forget the source of that blessing.”

She also shared how motherhood and having a child brought about a blessed but “frightening” vulnerability. She said that the only antidote to the vulnerability of motherhood was to “Trust that God holds her in His hands and that there is a power greater than me that will ensure that she’s okay.”
