In Matthew 15:16, Jesus asks His disciples, “Who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter replied with, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the Living God”. Jesus is known as many more names though, such as Teacher, Saviour and Healer. The list goes on.
Here are my thoughts on what I think Jesus is…

The one question I always get asked, surprisingly, is when are you due? You might as well ask, “When is God going to turn up?” Well, how long is a piece of string? In other words, I have no idea when the babies will come…or when God will turn up!
My official due date is 16th January, but I have been advised we’re going try and get me to 37 weeks. This makes my due date Boxing Day…of all days! The most loveliest time of the year, but yet the most frantic one. Let’s just say I already started buying presents and wrapping them a few weeks ago.
I don’t know when the big day will happen. It could be tomorrow (hopefully not though), or it could be Boxing Day. I don’t know when God will turn up either. (Notice I said when God will turn up and not if God will turn up). I know for sure in my heart, that just like these babies will be born, God will surely be there too!
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord! Psalm 27:14

For the last six months, ever since I found out I was pregnant, I have been scared. Scared of many things, from getting through the pregnancy without any complications, to coping with newborn twins whilst still raising my other 3 children.

The lyrics to John Lenon’s song “How?” Will probably resonate to millions of people around the world. Although it was released in 1971, it is very much relevant today.
How can I go forward when I don’t know which way I’m facing
How can I go forward when I don’t know which way to turn
How can I go forward into something I’m not sure of
Oh no, oh no
How can I have feeling when I don’t know if it’s a feeling
How can I feel something if I just don’t know how to feel
How can I have feelings when my feelings have always been denied
Oh no, oh no
You know life can be long
And you got to be so strong
And the world is so tough
Sometimes I feel I’ve had enough
How can I give love when I don’t know what it is I’m giving
How can I give love when I just don’t know how to give
How can I give love when love is something I ain’t never had
Oh no, oh no
You know life can be long
You’ve got to be so strong
And the world she is tough
Sometimes I feel I’ve had enough
How can we go forward when we don’t know which way we’re facing
How can we go forward when we don’t know which way to turn
How can we go forward into something we’re not sure of
Oh no, oh no
If only John Lennon knew the answer to all of his ‘hows’. The only answer I can give is God.
God knows which way you are facing.
God knows which way you can turn.
God knows how you can go forward.
God can give you love.
God knows what you are feeling and He is there when you have had enough.
When you feel like you are in a ‘how’ situation, turn to God for the answer.

I hate leaving a task half finished and incomplete. It looks imperfect. Before I move onto anything else, I like to make sure what I have done is finished. I then feel like I have accomplished something worthwhile.
I feel fulfilled. Complete.
