Last week was so hard for me, BUT
Thank you to those of you that prayed for me last week, and called or encouraged me..I'm so thankful for friends that can mourn with me & laugh with me!!
If you read my previous blog, you know that I was hurting....Well, I still hurt however, my spirit is being renewed daily with the hope that God is in control, NOT ME...
This brings me comfort knowing that He has ultimate control, not some test or some pill, or counting method...HE IS IN CONTROL!!!!!
The Lord knows the desires of my heart, and I pray I can continue to leave my desires at His feet, and learn to trust Him with my most intimate thoughts, desires, and struggles...The Lord knows me better than anyone, so I will trust in His perfect timing.
I know in 3 weeks I will have another hard week, but just knowing that others are in this with me and I'm not alone is sometimes just enough to keep going...
Jeremiah 29:11 The Message I'll show up and take care of you as I promised and bring you back home. I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
Philippians 4:8-9
whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

I'm so sorry I wasn't here for you last week, Carey! I know how disapointing it is to wait to be pregnant and to cry because you start your period and find you are not. You even hope that maybe it's just a little spotting and not a full-on period, but you eventually have to face the fact that it's not, and you are not what you can't wait to be--pregnant. I'm sorry I didn't react with more understanding on the phone when you told me you had been a week late. I'm sure you must have really gotten your hopes up. I love you, Hon, and really, really, want this for you too. I will make it my first prayer in the morning and my last prayer at night. I love you, MOM
Carey, So sorry I didn't say anything about your previous blog. I just didn't have the right words. All I could do was pray for you. I was very sad for you but just couldn't bring myself to talk to you about it. I am not real good with showing or sharing my emotions, especially the painful ones. I usually just take them in silence and share them only with the Lord. I hope next time as the days go by and our friendship grows I will be able to share your feeling with you as well as mine. You are daily in my prayers......SM
