On one hand, we’ve moved on and established other areas of our lives that we had put on hold. We’re enjoying the quietness of the nights to sleep and our mornings with the Lord. We appreciate the freedom to dedicate our time to work, our church, family, friends, and each other. We’re blessed with our sweet fur-baby, Mac. On the other hand, nothing has changed. We were without children at the start of our marriage and we still are today. Our family remains two. Or has it?

Let’s pretend I come for a visit. The long wait for children has left you feeling broken. There is safe space for you to share your deepest heartache about it all with someone who understands. Then comes a blessing which gives you hope to carry on, and a plan to find Jesus’ beautiful gifts in the waiting.

Today’s post is a prayer for those who are going through any kind of infertility this Christmas. May you experience Christ’s joy and peace more deeply as you look to Him.

One thing about infertility is that it can be so easy to get stuck with a zoomed-in perspective. You can stand so close to the problem that it’s all you can see. Finding an outside support can keep your perspective in the right place and assist you to find the answers and help you’re looking for.

A praise to the Lord for our own adoption. Life has purpose and we have much to be grateful for.

It’s time to pause in our quest for children and thank the Lord for our own lives.
