Learning to TRUST GOD

I wanted to share a little lesson on Trusting God with you, that I FINALLY gotten through my head. Back in November, I was having fertility procedures done. When we received our first negative pregnancy test I was crushed and angry with God....didn't want to pray, nothing....I had told a group of friends from church this and heard everyone’s 2 cents - me being me I got really angry with them and didn't want to go back. Since the leaders of the class are really good friends of ours Chuck and I went to talk with them and Ted once again set me straight. I wasn't trusting God with the situation....Well we had the same procedure done the first of December again. Well, after having the flu for a few weeks, I went to the doctor and my parents had been here as we had a funeral to attend. Well, I had the doctor take a pregnancy test and it once again came back negative. Instead of crying over it again fro weeks I completely gave the situation to God. As I was talking to those in my class Sunday night I recounted this to them and expressed my feelings of the prior class to them. Well, then I found out I have a kidney infection and had probably already had it for a few weeks. Well, Friday (Jan 2 - my birthday) I was still not feeling the greatest. When I finally realized where I was in my cycle, I decided to take a cheap pregnancy test. Oh my gosh! It was positive! Then I took another, more expensive test, it was POSITIVE!! Took a third Saturday morning and it was positive.....

Chuck and I are finally going to be parents!!! We are so ecstatic! It took me completely giving my hopes and desires, my heart and life to God. Once I did that, HE gave me the biggest desire of my heart - a baby! From what I can tell, I am due the end of August. We do not know yet if it is a boy or girl, and there is the chance of multiples. The morning sickness has begun, I am nauseous all the time, completely tired but more importantly - I AM BLESSED. This baby that is growing inside of me a TRUE GIFT from God our Father. This baby has been wanted and is already loved with all that we have within us.

Please pray with us for a healthy pregnancy, Little Abigail Grace or Alexander Behrens to develop the way that God sees fit and that mommy would remain as healthy as possible. Not sure that I can endure the vomiting feelings all the time. And if God sees fit to give us our other hearts desire and have multiples that God would grant us the patience, health and everything else in His perfect will.

So, your lesson to be learned from this story - Trust God with your whole heart. Give Him the Praise and Honor that He Alone Deserves!

Love & Blessings to you all!
