IHOP, snow cone, Ob, driving around, Kennedys, small group

We went to IHOP for breakfast. Ruth ate eggs, grape, and watermelon pretty well. We stopped by the gym so that I could let my trainer know I would be missing today's session since we just scheduled an Ob appointment since Amy had increased contractions yesterday. We stopped by George's little shaved ice store but he wasn't there. We ate at KFC for lunch and then drove to Bahama Buck's out by Firewheel since we had an hour until the appointment. The Ob said everything seemed okay. Ruth fell asleep on the way home so we decided to drive around a bit in order to let her sleep and so that we could talk some more. Nick rode by on his bicycle. We ended up bringing Bubba's chicken to the Kennedys house. Nick rode with us to church for small group. Sue was kind enough to share her experience with Amy and hopefully convinced Amy that she must take it easy from here on out.

2 Corinthians 10:3-4 "For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds."

It is a constant reminder to myself that we are temporarily. I get so wrapped up in wanting to enjoy and succeed in this world that I forget about what really matters. The rules change when your goals change. His promise of eternal life is so much more important than the things on Earth yet I focus solely on this short lived life. I need to refocus on eternity and Him.

Major prayers for Amy's pregnancy with the twins: that she would be able to let go and allow me and others to help her so that she does not go into preterm labor. I pray also for the twins to be healthy and to hang out in the womb for several more weeks so that they do not have any long term complications.
