Why we can’t be mom friends

Can we be real here, lemon8? I got my period last night and I cried. My husband and I have been trying for almost two years now. I was more sure of it this time. I pee on a stick and check my levels every day, we plan accordingly, I’ve been nauseous the past few days and I’ve been hopeful. And then I sat down last night, peed, wiped, and wept.

but also! wiped them away as quickly as they came (the tears, I mean). God’s bringing us into the busiest season yet- fellowship groups! Israel! 4th of July! Summer kids ministry! A new building that brings an entirely new way of doing kids min!! If it is His kindness not to give me an extra helping on my plate that is a baby, He is good to me, just as He has been, is, and always will be! This is my portion and my lot, Lord help me be faithful with it! Help me wait on you!

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. "The Lord is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I will hope in him." The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.”

‭‭Lamentations‬ ‭3‬:‭22‬-‭26‬

Everyone talks about v22-23 and they are wonderful truths of God! But so less common is v24-26 and I think it’s because it states what my response is to be to His goodness- to hope in Him, wait on Him, seek Him, wait quietly!! He will give the desires of my heart and it is to be my delight in Him! This is the promise and truth I’m holding onto!
