Ramona,
I've hesitated to send you any kind of message before now. We don't really know each other, and I'm not struggling with infertility. In fact, I'm not even married...which in itself can be a struggle. Still, I've been keeping up with your blog for the last few weeks, and you have been on my heart and in my prayers. In my opinion, "Why aren't you married?" and/or "Why don't you have any children?" (or in your case why don't you have more?) are two of the rudest questions people can ask. Their questions imply that it's just something you can decide to do and then do it. They don't mean it to be hurtful, but it still is.
I do want you to know that I admire your faith. While you have days that you struggle, you hold steadfast to the hope set before you (Heb 10:23 and 12:1-3). In your 4/5 blog, you quoted Romans 8:28. What a great source of comfort that can be!! Still, I wanted to remind you of Romans 8:26 -- "In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express." This to me is a wonderful picture of what 8:28 really means. Not only is it for our good, but the Holy Spirit is praying for us in a way that cannot be put into words.
I also wanted to send you a website. Caleb Ministries is based out of Charlotte, NC. It is a ministry for those struggling with infertility and miscarriages. I won't even pretend to understand, but I hope this website will be helpful to you: http://www.calebministries.org/home/.
I will continue to pray. Stay strong in your faith.
Christen H.
love it love it love it
