5 For God Himself has said, I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. I will not, I will not, I will not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let you down or relax My hold on you! Assuredly not!
6 So we take comfort and are encouraged and confidently and boldly say, The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm I will not fear or dread or be terrified.
What can man do to me?
Hebrews 13:5-6 (Amplified Bible)
What are you passionate about? The horrors of human trafficking? The injustices of child abuse? Family members you love? What causes you to speak with fire in your eyes and electricity in your voice?
Read Hebrews 13:5-6. Read it again and hear the passion in Gods voice. Gods passion is you. See the fire in His eyes as He promises you Hell never leave you and never even relax His grip on you. He knows infertility hurts and sometimes threatens to do you in. He is also very aware of every time youve wanted to give up on Him because youve felt like Hes abandoned you or youve felt that His plan for your life is cruel. But He refuses to give up on you even then, for when we are faithless, He is faithful still. (2 Timothy 2:13)
How does it feel to know that God Almighty speaks so passionately about you? When infertility makes you feel so out of control, the God who controls the universe with nothing more than His words says to you, I will in no way fail you or in any degree leave you helpless! When you feel so all alone because you are the only one left in your group of friends without a child, God says to you, I will not, I will not, I will not leave you helpless or forsake you or let you down! When you fear your future, and have so many decisions regarding treatment, adoption or the millions of other questions infertile couples face, remind yourself that the Lord Himself is your helper so you can face an uncertain future confidently and boldly and you simply do not have to dread or be afraid.
God is passionate about you today, friend. Even more passionate about you than you are about the baby you want to conceive. Because He loves you and refuses to leave you for even a moment, you can face uncertain days with assurance and confidence and even find contentment in the waiting.
