Birth In God's Presence Kierra Blaser

During her fourth pregnancy, the Lord told Libby He had something different for her in this birth. A VBAC after three C-sections! Though she didn’t know many stories of women doing this, she trusted the Lord’s leading and found a doctor willing to assist her with a VBAC.
 
Throughout her pregnancy, God helped her overcome her fears and met her each step of the way. He then gave her a surprising and beautiful birth story and VBAC! Though it didn’t go exactly how she had planned it, the Lord had something even better in store for her and touched many lives through their story. As she shares in this episode, “He had every detail worked out even before the foundation of the world.” I pray you are so encouraged by Libby’s fun and beautiful story!

“Joy” was the word the Lord gave Brittany as she prayed about her upcoming birth, and He truly delivered on His word. Her labor was filled with His joy, laughter, community, and fun surprises. She truly experienced the gift that God created childbirth to be and I pray that her story gets your heart excited for your own beautiful birth with God!

When Amy prayed about her upcoming birth, she heard the Lord say “It’s going to be a good birth.”
 
She clung to those words even when things didn’t all go as planned or hoped. And His word proved true! It truly was a really good birth!
 
I love how her story encourages us that hospital births can be good births! That long births can be good births! And so much more!

I’m so excited to share our recent birth story with you! I had asked God for an easy, daytime, two-hour labor filled with laughter, and He answered every one of my prayers! Truly every part of this birth was such a gift from Him and I was in awe afterward of how He showed up.
I pray that my story encourages your heart to know that birth doesn’t have to be full of toil and labor, but that with God, it truly can be full of ease, joy, and peace.  He is a good, good Father who will meet you in your own unique way during your own birth and give you exactly what you need!

To your beautiful birth,
Kierra
