Praise You in This Storm

Long before I started this blog, after the first doctor's appointment in which the dreaded "I" word had been used (Infertility), I was driving home in a daze. I was so overcome with my own pain, worries, and fear of never being able to be a mother. A song came on my radio and instantly rescued me, "Praise You in This Storm."

Not only is this journey one big storm in my life, but this work week has been quite the storm too. I have heard the song, "Praise You in This Storm," every day this week on my drive to work. So, amidst these challenges I am facing, I am praising God this week.

I have started each day by reading from Jesus Calling and the corresponding scriptures. All three messages this week have been so perfect for me and this journey to you. The three themes this week were: "Walk by faith, not by sight," "Waiting, trusting, and hoping," and "Learn to live above your circumstances." All three spoke so perfectly to my heart. Starting my [stressful] work days off with just ten quiet minutes of reading have been such a peaceful way to begin my days.

I am thankful that through our pain, God continues to show us that He is still with us and showing His love for us. So, until you are in our arms, I will continue praising God through this storm.
