Welcome and Blessings!

Thank you so much for stopping by! I have named this blog "Running to the Cross" because that is what I often find myself doing...running to be with my Lord Jesus! I often cover many aspects of life on my blog, as it is my journal. I used to write things down in all sorts of notebooks, but my writings would soon be lost. So I decided that it was time to start a blog and share my thoughts and ideas with others. Many topics you will find here are prayers, homemaking and organization, children and pregnancy, funny stories, and the challenges of parenting and motherhood. If you enjoy my blog and leave me a comment, you are likely to have me visit! I love meeting others and gleaning from the lives of others. May you be blessed! Your friend in Christ, Heather

With Each Little Kick...

With each little kick,
I say a prayer in my heart
that you, my friend, will be blessed.

With each little kick,
I am reminded of those
whose hearts long for a child.

With each little kick,
I am reminded of the blessing
you really are, little one.

With each little kick,
I am reminded of those
who have their little blessings no longer.

With each little kick,
my heart cries for those
who have empty arms.

With each little kick,
I am reminded of each blessing
that I have held in my arms.

With each little kick,
I am reminded of God's love
and blessings that He has bestowed upon me.

With each little kick,
I long for a prayer that I have said
to be miraculously answered.

With each little kick,
I am reminded of you, my friend...
yes, you my friend...
I have said a prayer for you today.

May you be richly blessed today from our Heavenly Father above.

This poem inspired by the little one, that I have yet to meet, who has began to kick me from time to time...I pray that if it be your desire to have a little one, that God will bless and fill your arms with joy!

Written from my heart...
