I have had so many amazing experiences these last few months as I have started attending births and providing doula services. One moment in particular I get to enjoy reliving because the moment was wrapped up in a beautiful song that I hear on the radio from time to time.
At this birth mom was absolutly amazing and attending to her was an honor and a pleasure. This special moment took place close to the end of labor as mom was dealing with the most intense physical strain and drawing deep from within just trusting God and his design of her body to get the job done. She was able to ask for a certain song to be played. The room was quiet except for this music, and our whispered words of encouragement and prayer. As mom swayed through a contraction the room was filled with an incredible peace as these words played: (hum it with me if you know it!)
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God.
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God.
For me, it seemed time stood still as the words covered the moment. As this mother was on the verge of bringing her son into the world, it was so apparent that God certainly is indescribale, uncontainable and all powerful. When I hear this song now, I am immediatly brought back to that moment and humbled once again by how amazing God is and by how incredible it is that we get to share in the process of creating and bringing forth new life. Wow.
