Wait a little longer....

God has decided that it will be a little longer until we add baby #3 to our family; two weeks ago He called our tiny baby home. I was 9 weeks pregnant when I miscarried…two weeks later and it, the miscarriage, is almost complete.

I am not mad at God for it; I know His plan is perfect and He has a plan for our family. I have wondered ‘why’ but am able to rest in the fact that God is sovereign and nothing that happens to me is a surprise to Him – He plans it all.

I’m learning to be content in every situation – even these tough ones.

Not that I am speaking of being in need,

for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.

I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound.

In any and every circumstance,

I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger,

abundance and need.

I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Philippians 4:11-13

I can now say that I have been ‘brought low’ – and I can confidently say I can do all things through Him who strengthens me…even go through a hard miscarriage.

I’m slowly re-entering my normal routines with the kids; it’s getting easier to talk about and I know that will continue to improve with time.

God is good – all the time – even the tough times! Blessed be the name of the Lord!
