my new best friend is cuter than yours 👀✨ He my new best friend is cuter than yours 👀✨

Hello! It's been a while but we are back and super excited to introduce you to baby Georgia. She's nearly six weeks old and already hard at work helping us get back to YouTube and blogging - mostly by taking naps and providing all the snuggles👶

We have a brand new video coming out this Saturday so watch out for that. We would also love to film a Q&A answering all your questions about pregnancy, birth, post-partum & more so drop any questions you'd like to hear us chat about down in the comments👇

Dear God, ⁠ ⁠ Today we pray for #OperationChri Dear God, ⁠
⁠
Today we pray for #OperationChristmasChild and everyone at @samaritanspurse involved in this project. ⁠
⁠
Protect these boxes as they travel, and help them to safely reach the children they have been packed for. ⁠
⁠
Be with everyone involved in packing, collecting, transporting, and delivering these boxes. Give them wisdom, patience and all the skills needed to help this process run smoothly. ⁠
⁠
And finally we pray for all the children who will receive a shoebox gift this Christmas. Bless them and help them come to know who you are and the love you have for them. ⁠
⁠
Amen. ⁠

Have you been following along with #COP26 this wee Have you been following along with #COP26 this week?🌿

I think it's been quite interesting to see some of the headlines and conversations coming out of these meetings, although I certainly don't pretend to be an expert when it comes to evaluating how good or bad some of the decisions being made are. 

But caring for our planet is a big topic. The decisions being made are big, and when it comes to praying - that can seem overwhelmingly big too. 

So where do we start?

As COP26 continues, let's pray together: 

🌿 For wisdom for all those attending, that wise and achievable decisions and pledges will be made. And also for wisdom as leaders return home and begin to implement plans made. 

🌿 For the planet, and for God's healing hand to be upon it and protect it from any further harm. 

🌿 For guidance. Ask God to show you how you can make a difference in caring for the planet in your daily life. 

What are your prayers for COP26?🙏🏼
Books I read in October? Answer: none of these📚 Books I read in October? Answer: none of these📚

📚 The Yellow Bird Sings by Jennifer Rosner
📚 Long Way Gone by Charles Martin
📚 Esther and the Very Brave Plan by Tim Thornborough
📚 Operation Mayhem by Steve Heaney
📚 Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi

Dear God, ⁠ ⁠ This Halloween, we pray for all Dear God, ⁠
⁠
This Halloween, we pray for all those who are out trick or treating. Keep them safe and be with everyone who is feeling scared or anxious. ⁠
⁠
We also pray for churches who are reaching out to their communities through light events, Halloween alternatives or simply serving those who are out and about. May your light shine through them to all they meet. ⁠
⁠
Amen. ⁠

(SWIPE 👉) for three questions to ask yourself a (SWIPE 👉) for three questions to ask yourself as you prepare for Halloween this weekend. ⁠
⁠
Whether you go out trick or treating, hold a light party, stay at home or run away and hide, we all need to ask ourselves these questions & make sure that all we do is in line with God's will. ⁠
⁠
🎃 How am I glorifying God? ⁠
We are called to bring glory to God in all that we do. How will your words and actions this Halloween bring glory to God? What are you doing to point people towards him?⁠
⁠
🎃 What am I celebrating?⁠
When you "celebrate" Halloween - what is it you are celebrating? Is it the dark and scary? Or is it the light and good? How does that make a difference to what you do?⁠
⁠
🎃 How can I be a light to the world?⁠
As Christians, we are called to be lamps - shining God's light to all those around us. When people look at us, what will they see? Will they see that light?⁠
⁠
What do you do for Halloween? Let us know down in the comments!👇⁠

We love to talk about prayer, and to encourage you all to pray boldly and creatively in your own lives. But we also want this to be a place where you can bring your prayer requests & be supported.

Sharing our prayer requests with our friends, family and community is an important part of doing life together & supporting one another. 

So please do leave any prayer requests down in the comments (even if it's just that you want prayer - God knows what it's about), and pray over any other requests you see👇

Dear God, ⁠ ⁠ This #BibleSunday we thank you f Dear God, ⁠
⁠
This #BibleSunday we thank you for the gift that you have given to us in your word. Thank you for your words to us, for the promises they hold, and the story that unfolds on it's pages. ⁠
⁠
May we always approach the Bible with eager hearts, open minds and gratitude. ⁠
⁠
Work through your living and active word to change our hearts, guide us and teach us. ⁠
⁠
We pray also for those who do not have access to the Bible as easily as we do. Help us to find ways to share your word with all people, and protect those who must hide their Bibles for fear of persecution. ⁠
⁠
Amen. ⁠

(SWIPE 👉) for three important reminders in seas (SWIPE 👉) for three important reminders in seasons of waiting🍂⁠
⁠
What are you waiting for? ⁠
⁠
Whether you're waiting for God's guidance, for a new chapter in your life, for healing, or for the end of a difficult situation, waiting can be hard for all of us.⁠
⁠
Sometimes we all need to be reminded of these important truths:⁠
⁠
🌻 You are not alone.⁠
Waiting can certainly feel like a lonely place, as if everyone else has already arrived in that place where you want to be. But remember, in all seasons God is with you, he will never leave you or forsake you. Also, people around you may be waiting for things that you have no idea about - ask God to bring you strong community to support you in this season of waiting.⁠
⁠
🌻 God's timing is perfect. ⁠
You may not understand it now, you may not ever understand it, but God knows far more than we could ever imagine. There is a time and a season for everything, and we need to trust that God is working for our good. ⁠
⁠
🌻 This season is still important. ⁠
It can be easy to become so wrapped up in that thing that we're waiting for, that we forget about the here and now. But today matters too. How you serve God, how you worship God, how you bless others around you - they matter now. Don't just wait for that next thing, but really live for God today, right where you are. ⁠
⁠
What's your best advice for those going through a season of waiting? Let us know in the comments👇
