encouragement

I received a very encouraging e-mail from a friend regarding my new Blog. Her husband and her have also been struggling with PCOS and infertility. I'd like to add a small piece that really moved me...

 One night we were hanging out with a friend's parents and out of the blue, our friend's mom reached over to me and said, "I'm praying for your womb." I had never shared the pain and heartache we felt, so I was taken a back by her candidness-- and embarrassed. So, a long story to basically say, I'm praying for your womb. And for your encouragement. I'll be thinking of you guys and praying for you often. God bless you on this journey!

To keep her identity a closed subject I did remove most the E-mail as they are expecting a little one of their own and would like to wait a little longer before sharing the good news! These words she said to me though meant so much. I mean people always says oh we are praying for you, and yes your thankful. But never before have I thought "Oh WOW, she really cares, and she is really side by side with us petitioning God for this child in our lives.

        I guess it just comes down to the fact of many times I have been angry with God and questioned WHY? Why do these people who don't even deserve kids have them, and why do people who don't want them  and don't take care for them have them. God has answered me with a simple yet very clear answer. Who am I to ever question his will, his power, and his plan. If God puts something into place it only happens when it is in his time, and on track with his will. So I'm left having Faith that He has never left me in this scary journey. He has always been right there whispering in my ear keep going child. I'm here with you. And when you wake up that day and see how fully I've blessed you along this path you will stand in Awe. When I finally hold my Child I'll experience it in a way some people will never understand. Frankly, if the truth be known, I think God has singled me out for a special treatment. I think God meant for me to build a thirst for a child so strong and so deep that when that baby is finally placed in my arms, it will be the longest, coolest, most refreshing drink I've ever known.
