My prayer . . .

Lord, sometimes I feel cheated and even ashamed that I cannot do something that I think should be so natural and easy. I feel somehow that I have let Christopher down or that my body has let me down. I feel ashamed that I don't "measure up" when I am around couples with children. Please teach me to look to you and let my face radiate with your light and peace. Remind me that this too, is a part of your plan for my life, at least for the moment, and that you are a trustworthy God! Teach me to honor you through this period of waiting and give me courage as I surrender my life's course to you.

Kim, I'll be praying for the both of you. I know EXACTLY how you are feeling and what you are going through. I too at times feel inadequete-especially when people ask if I have any children. It's tough to remember that everything is in God's time, not yours. Just keep praying and He will show you what he wants for you.

It has been hard coming to terms with my outcome, but I remind myself each and every day that my life is in God's control and He knows what he is doing and most importantly WHY He is doing what he does. Keep your chin up, keep trusting God and don't feel ashamed of who you are. You are perfect in God's eyes....never forget that.

Brandon and I have you in our prayers. We know the road you're on and the vast number of ways this journey affects so many areas your life. You have the right perspective to keep going to Lord and keep asking Him to sustain you. It doesn't mean there won't be hard (or really hard) days, but each time, in some way, He'll remind that He loves you and has a good plan for you.

Much love to you!

Kim, I'm praying along with you. Just as an encouragement. It took me a year to get pregnant even with no girl problems. Leave it God's hands and you'll be blessed no matter what. He has the best for you!!!
Love u!
