As an act of faith, why not spend time today thanking God for what you believe He WILL do? There is no doubt you are asking Him to bless your family with a healthy baby. Thank Him for this blessing! Thank Him that He hears every prayer you pray and that He will continue to hear each prayer. Thank Him that He cares about your desire for a baby, and that He has seen every tear you have cried. Thank Him that He will continue to walk this journey with you and that He will accompany you to every doctor’s appointment, that He will stand strong beside you each time someone says something to you that hurts your heart. Thank Him that He will NEVER leave you or forsake you. Thank Him that He understands your struggle with infertility and always will.
If you have suffered the loss of a baby, thank God for His provision of an eternal reunion with the baby you have loved and lost. If you have accepted His gift of salvation, you can wholeheartedly thank Him that one day you will see your baby again, even if the only way you ever saw your baby was on a stilled sonogram screen or even a positive pregnancy test. Thank Him that He has made a way for you to be eternally reunited with your baby. No more separation. Ever. You will literally see your child’s face. You will literally stroke their hair and smell their sweet fragrance. You will hear their sweet sighs. Thank God for making a way through the sacrifice of His Baby. (If you have never accepted His give of salvation, please accept His gift today. You’ll have so much to be thankful for!)
The holidays are hard when you are suffering. God loves you and has amazing plans for you. Even if your emotions cannot line up with this truth, trust God’s character when you cannot fathom His workings, and thank Him for the wonderful plan He has for you. When you present your requests to Him, wrap them in thanksgiving and lay them before Him with full assurance that He is passionate about you, He rejoices over you with singing, and He will do what He has promised He will do.
May God bless you today as you offer thanks for what He WILL do in your life.
