It matters where we place our hope because God is neither absent nor distant from us. He is not a backup plan or a cheering birth coach. God defines reality. He is the Sovereign God in Whose hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind. Is PSALM 18:1-2 true for me?

"A mom in labor is a picture of eschatological hope. When we undergo light and momentary affliction in our mothering, then we see it for what it is: a reminder to look to the unseen. Birth is not about us, but about God. We take care of the transient but we don't throw our hearts into it. Let's be obsessed with what we're going to be obsessed with thirty zillion years from now: the glory of Jesus." (2 Cor. 4:16-18)
