The bad news at the doctor...the good news of hope

ten tiny little fingers

 ten tiny little toes

I can just picture him or her in my mind.

I am sure that he/she would have dark, curly hair.
   His face might have tiny little features...
Her eyes might be as green as a spring field....

In the book of James he tells us to count it all joy when we experience trials....
   So how do I count it all joy when someone tells me I might not ever be able to have children?......?.....

This is my delima I present before the Lord.
Maybe your situation is different...but can you relate????

I ask Him...."Lord, I trust you....BUT how do I trust that what I have always desired could be taken from me???"
He says, "Trust me anyways"
 
I ask Him...."Lord, all I have ever wanted is to have a baby to take care of....how do I count it all joy that you might take that from me????"
He says, "Trust me anyways"

I ask Him..."Lord, how do I ease the ache and heartache of this situation? How do I trust that your ways are higher than the pain that I feel in my heart?"
He says, "TRUST ME ANYWAYS"

I ask Him..."Lord, how do I remain strong and faithful....when I don't feel strong and faithful?"
He says, " TRUST in Me"


   My friends, I haven't blogged in a while...but I wanted to share a truth with you that the Lord is teaching me through a deep season of heartache....
No matter what you are facing in your life right now the only thing that is constant and true is the Lord!
  We have desires for our lives...
    We have big hopes for our futures...
and there is nothing wrong with that...but I have learned that nothing is promised besides the love of the Lord.
He wants us to remain hopeful...
He wants us to dream big and ask Him for the desires of our hearts...
But my friends if those desires are not fulfilled it doesn't mean that He doesn't love you.
It doesn't mean that He has forgotten you.
When things in life seem to be so crazy and unsure...the only rest we can find is trusting that the Lord has things in control.

This is something in my life that I can't change...
So the only thing I can do is change my response to the change.

Friends, is there something in your life that is looming over you like a dark cloud?
   Do you feel anxious about the future?
Does your heart ache at the loss of something or someone dear to you?
   Do you wonder how you are going to make it in this life?

I want to encourage you today that there is Someone who can help you get through this season.

 No matter what you are facing...no matter how high the hill is that you have to climb....
you can trust in the Lord to get you through!

 no matter your problem in life
Trust Him anyways!

Oh how He loves you and me!
