This week is Infertility Week (preceded by the very important National Pretzel Day, I hope you all took off work). This week a year ago I was only a few days pregnant and was waiting to find out if our in vitro had worked. It was a rough nine days. I only worked part time and so I came home each day and pretty much prayed all afternoon. I had several scriptures that really encouraged me at the time. They were:
"May the LORD make you increase, both you and your children.
May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth." Psalm 115:14-15

"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Heb 11:6

"One of your men puts to flight a thousand, for the LORD your God is H"e who fights for you, just as He promised you." Joshua 23:10

"Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD." Psalm 27:4

and Amos 3:3 "Do two walk together unless they are agreed?" This one was very important to me because I KNEW that God was sovereign and His plan is better than mine, even if I don't like the circumstances, BUT when I read this I realized that at times I didn't agree that this was best for me and I really wanted to walk with Him through this and everyday. I had to seek Him and get to the place where I was at peace with WHEREVER He was leading me.

I am praying this week for everyone who is waiting on the Lord. I am praying for those couples who are waiting on a baby, singles who are waiting on a godly spouse, and families waiting on healing. This is such a special week coming up to honor Mothers but, I know this week has pain for others. It is hard on those who have lost their Mom or child or those who want to be Moms. Not to be a Debby Downer but, I want to encourage those people that He is faithful and will carry you through the times of hurt.
