Waiting in Hope
Hope Lies Beneath the Surface

As I observed this vacant scene on the shores of Lake Erie, I marveled at the wonder of God’s creation and how, every year, He allows nearly every sign of life to be obscured by ice, freezing temperatures and snow.

A Lament That Leads To Hope

When we first started trying for a baby two and a half years ago, the early months held tendrils of hope. My mind swam with thoughts of our future family, not thinking for a moment of the difficulty we might face along the way.

How To Get Unstuck

It was 6AM, and my eyes were heavy as I tried to make sense of the Scripture passage laid out in front of me.

It's Not All Physical

Infertility is a physical problem, but it has ramifications that go far beyond the physical. God gave us not just a body, but a mind, heart, and soul (Matthew 22:37).

God Wants More For You

I want to be done with infertility. To be healed and done with the whole struggle. It has gone on long enough. I'm tired. I plead for God to just give me a baby already. Haven't I waited enough?

You Can Love Because You Are Loved

Loving is hard when we’re in pain. When my husband and I tried to conceive year after year, and when we miscarried our first baby, God asked us to keep loving. When others got pregnant and I didn’t, He asked me to keep loving. It was hard.

God's Goodness Changes Everything

Do you believe God is good? Before infertility I would have told you, “Yes, of course! That’s what the Bible says.” But as my struggle with infertility continues, this one aspect of God is brought into question. Is He good?
