[...] Last night I mentioned that Roomie and I went to her first doctor’s appointment here in Tennessee. The doctor might have mentioned once or thrice that Roomie needs to continue to be smart about weight gain, staying in shape, etc. Roomie is not big by any means, but the doctor mentioned that it is easier to give birth when you’re in shape.

OK this post made me cry. Thank you for sharing your heart. I can relate to what you are saying in a lot of ways. I was married for 12 years before I had my daughter. And I struggled through so many Mother’s Days & baby showers! I felt like I was sitting back watching EVERYONE around me have children, while I still waited.

I would go back and forth between really longing for a child and accepting that I might not have one. It was a like a roller coaster. Just around the time that I was starting to REALLY accept that God may not give me children, I found out I was pregnant. God just has a way of doing things that we never expect. He is amazing!

What an amazing friend you are, Amy. The love you so easily pour into others’ lives is truly a shining example of the love of Christ. Those girls are blessed to have you in their lives, as I’m sure they already know.

As far as the baby situation, remember that God has the final word. Not the doctor. =)

What a beautiful post. I may not be in the same situation as you, but I can definitely learn from your words.

AB… I truly believe God brought me to your blog all those months and months ago…you are such an encouragement to me as I read your posts and hear you talk about things in your life that are similar to mine. I too have sat in a obgyn office and been told something very similar to what you have been told. I too have cried and have also moved past that stage into a stage of waiting…all the while knowing HE knows the desires of my heart…just as He knows yours. I agree with Gayle and Jennifer M “But God” He has amazing things in store for you AB and I cannot wait to read all about it ) You have the beautiful gift of words that I don’t have…thanks for sharing your heart.

Blessings.

And Gayle is right, “But God…”

My heart breaks for you, sweetie. You are such a beautiful soul – and we can rest confidently in the knowledge that God’s plans for you are enormous. No matter what they are.

There’s a Steven Curtis Chapman song (Believe Me Now) that has this to say about our God:

I am the One who waved my hand and split the ocean
I am the One who spoke the words and raised the dead
And I’ve loved you long before I set the world in motion
I know all the fears you’re feeling now
But do you remember who I am?

Our God is faithful, AB. I feel privileged to watch Him work in your heart and your life. Remember who He is.
