It Is Well

I heard this song today from a friend of mine who is also living with infertility and continuing to trust God that her prayers will be answered; her miracle given to her. It instantly touched me and brought me back to our own struggle. It made me so prayerful for the many women I know who so badly want to be mothers. It made me prayerful for the women who will never have the chance to experience the beauty of pregnancy. I once lived in a state of, "Why me?" pity. I now find myself in a state of humility, asking, "Why me?" Of all the women living with infertility, crying out for God to give them children, why did He answer my cry? I am so thankful that He gave your dad and I the chance to parent you two. I'm not sure why us and not others, but I know God's plan is perfect for each of us. So, I pray for my friends still struggling (whether still waiting for their babies or whether already mothers because the pain of infertility is probably always going to be in the back of our minds).


"Far be it from me to not believe; even when my eyes can't see. And this mountain that's in front of me will be thrown into the midst of the sea...So let go my soul and trust in Him...It is well with my soul."

How difficult, yet how powerful to be able to utter these words in the midst of our mountains. Whether our mountains are sickness, problems at home, stress at work, or conflict within ourselves, we need to always utter, "So let go my soul and trust in Him...It is well with my soul."
