Hello Ladies,;)

I was at Lent services last night and we were talking about the "why" series and times when we want to question God. Such as why is there so much pain and suffering in the world and that it is OKAY to ask those questions. I was sitting there with tears streaming down my face thinking of all of us and the one thing in the world that would bring us tremendous joy would be to create a life with our loving DH's and fulfill our maternal desires to nurture a baby. My pastor was talking about pain, unmeasurable pain that fills your heart and makes you doubt HIM and his endless love for us. But, HE is listening to us and HE is there when we are hurting. Perhaps he is testing our beliefs in Him, but without the rain and the storms we would not be able to enjoy the sun. So, remember that. When our sunny day comes, it will be worth so much more because we have been suffered and fought for it. I wish I could remember the exact words from his sermon, it really touched me and I realized that everyone suffers her own demons. No one is without pain or struggling. This is just the particular hand that we were dealt. It doesn't make it any easier but remember to ask GOD for help. don't just pray but ask Him for help.

Ladies, I hope this gives us inspiration.:angel::angel::angel:

Hopeful, that is beautiful and it brings tears to my eyes too. I actually went to church on Sunday for the first time in years and the sermon was very meaningful to me in a similar way. It was all about how we aren't dealt more than we can handle and how we are loved and sympathized with, even when we feel very alone. I know it inspired me and I think that's one of the primary reasons I've done so well with this miscarriage/chemical pregnancy... whatever it was. Thank you for sharing :angel:

Hi Hopeful thanks for sharing that with us.Reading your post really touched me and its so true if there are no storms and rain we cant enjoy the sun.All of us going through IF will make us appreciate our kids that much more.Again thanks for sharing.Take care.

I try to stay positive as far as reglion goes but sometimes I just get so upset. The long wait for a baby is one thing but I always wonder why does god want me to go broke? Why does he want me to have arguments over this with DH? I keep saying there must be a reason but I will never know. I try to get to church every week and for over a year now, I am constantly praying for a child, more recent I am praying for all of us!

Hopeful, that post really gave me hope. That he is listening, and that he does hear our cries. I try to stay faithful and positive that there is a plan.....but there is always that negative whisper "What if that plan means you don't get children?" How would I ever be okay with that? But I keep telling myself to keep having faith...that it will happen for all of us. It's just really hard sometimes. But it's good to know that we can ask for help....ask and you shall receive!
