God is our shield. Meditate on that. He protects us from things that we don’t even see coming, holds himself between threats and dangers, and delivers us as armor does a soldier, from a place of death to a place of life, over and over again.
God is our rock. Don’t just read that. He holds us when the world or our hearts shake and things look upside down, confusing, broken or dark. He is the only solid ground while we learn new things and experience daunting challenges.
God is our sustainer. Soak it in. He does not let our weaknesses and needs keep us from His glorifying mission! He carries each of us through with strong arms and faithful provision for our hearts and bodies. He is more than enough for anything we face.
Praise God for being our shield, our rock, and sustainer! He is being revealed as that to each parent and baby served here, He is continuing this to our staff, and to each of you dear intercessors! What a God we serve. He has no rival and is not daunted.

When I found out I was pregnant I felt nervous, overwhelmed and bad … totally stuck in the moment and wanting time to stop so I could figure out what was going on. I felt like I was in a blur for a few weeks. Confused, that’s the best word to describe it. I came to Care Net Peninsula because I knew that I was pregnant and wanted to make sure that I had an opportunity to speak with someone about what was going on.
In the 1800’s, American barns were costly and required more labor to build than a typical family could provide. Barn raising enlisted members of the community (unpaid) to help build neighbors’ barns. Neighbors recruited others because the favor would eventually return to each participant.
