Most often my response is.. the truth, that Mark and I cooperate with the Holy Spirit. In reality, we don't do anything - God does it all. I joked recently with a friend that I'm learning that having babies and raising children are two very different things.
Yesterday I was introduced to someone new in my work environment. The person introducing me shared that I have six children. Ready... incredulous look #1 (I've become accustomed to it). Revise statement to state ages of six children. Ready.... incredulous look #2 followed by incredulous query #1 "how do you do it" OR awkward silence filler "God bless ya'!".
When I consider what others are able to do, like this couple in Ukraine, I can't boast so much. But I can confirm that God gives us what we need and the truth is that in my weakness, His strength is shown.
The video is about seven minutes long.. but worth the watch... especially near the 3 minute 45 second mark. I agree with Illya!
