another month…

Another month has come and gone.. and I am typing this truly broken inside… why because it is another reminder that I will not be holding a little one in my arms any time soon.  The reality of that hits me about the same time every month- most months, I handle it with grace, just placing my hope on next month, but not today.

I have come to this realization- that we humans fool ourselves in believing we can make things happen and truly God is in control. I was fooling myself in thinking that if I kept track of everything, right times, dates, etc. I could make it happen. But I am the one wearing the Dunce hat now..

How prideful am I to think that I could “make” anything happen? Or that I have control over any area of my life including bringing a child into this world?

Am I any different from Eve- who thought if she ate of the tree that she would be Like/as God? No.. because I honestly thought that if I did certain things I would get pregnant.

I am exposing myself to all of you- and sharing with you the deepest darkest innermost gaping hole I have in my heart… I know Christ is the healer of all things. I know He gives and He takes away.. but alot of what is taken is based on our own decisions, right?

Am I reaping consequences from my decisions I made long ago? Am I “suffering” of the wrong that I did??

Maybe or maybe not. Maybe, it is another thing I must completely and utterly surrender to HIM.

So Lord I surrender all to you

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
