I have been MIA for a bit... Welcome new ladies! You are going to love the ladies on here. They are a constant encouragement and blessing.

I have been beyond busy. Here is what is going on with me... Huge changes! I was tired of our Church not feeling friendly and God has been smacking me around to do something about it. I started a potluck group and a walking/jogging/running group. Then I encouraged another gal to start up a park hop group for the summer as I wanted to, but needed someone else to coordinate it as I was feeling a little overloaded. Then add play dates, Bible study and both my older two in kindergarten and preschool all while fitting in nursing and diaper changes. Well, I have been really putting myself out there at Church on Sundays and trying to talk to those who sit near me on Sunday's... wouldn't you know God has sat down new people beside me every week. LOL! Funny guy! So I have been chatting and being open to these new people. Wouldn't you know the Church announced they are starting a "connections team" and asked if we would fill out a survey online. WELL... fill it out I did. I am tired of running into people that say they had been to my Church and found it "unfriendly" so I put all they had said about it and how I had been feeling about it. How I want it to change and what I had been doing to start to change it. Well, wouldn't you know that after meeting with the director today I was offered the Events Coordinator position for the team. I would have 2-5 people under me and then a bunch of volunteers (some of which I would have to recruit). It was an honest answer to prayer. I have prayed since I was a child that God would reveal to me what it was that he wanted me to do. I knew wife and mother were what I wanted first, but then I wanted something beyond that. I had hoped it would be something working at the Church. I had hoped it would be something I would love and be passionate about. Well, today God slammed the job down in a concrete way and spoke in bold that this is Him revealing that "something beyond" to me. I knew I didn't have to think or pray about it, but I did want to talk to my hubby first before I took the position. I have been praying about this since I was about 8 or 9. So I know full well this is an answer to my prayer. I am stoked and so excited. I will be starting with attending meetings that so happen to be on nights when my hubby is home from work and then in September I will be taking the role of Events Coordinator for our Church. EEeeeeekkkkkkk!!!!
 
@Terangela: Congrats on your new position and your answered prayer from God.

Hope everyone is blessed.:hugs:

That is so awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to share it with us!
 
Hi ladies,

I was on this thread last year and took a break, but I am back. DH and I have recently decided to move from WTT to NTNP/TTC. We're 31 (turning 32 in May) and just finished grad school, so we're thinking it may be the right time before we go full throttle into new careers and need to adjust to that as well. This thread has been such a blessing to me, I am excited to be back.

@Terangela...thank you for sharing that also testimony to God's goodness. I was having a moment of irritation with DH I was trying to shake and that just brightened my heart right on up. Thanks and Congrats!
 
Terrangela, I just love how God works! Enjoy your new ministry!
 
Wonderful news Terrangela :happydance:

Welcome back girlblue

Hope everyone else is doing well - keeping you in my prayers xx

By the way, has anyone heard from Rdy2B lately?

Congrats NDH!

I have officially made it to 9 weeks! I can't believe it! It's been a scary time - already had FIVE ultrasounds, but each one has been perfect.

I'm quitting my job...trusting that God will help provide for us. (it's a long story - it's not really by choice that I'm leaving, although I'm happy about it)

I feel bad posting in here, now that I'm pregnant, but I want to give God the glory for this baby, because it feels like a miracle...

Congrats Andella:happydance::thumbup:
You shouldn't feel bad about posting here. Honey your blessing gives us hope. If he did it for you, surely he can do it for us too.

Ladies,

Please pray for me. This journey has been an extremely difficult one for me. AF showed today. She showed early even before I had a chance to test. I feel like running and screaming. I don't know why I felt so down when I saw her. I felt it coming but the sight of AF made it so real. My faith is really being tested right now. I'm trying to keep my eyes toward the heavens but its so hard. Never did I think it would be this difficult. I feel like giving up is my only option. Month after Month I think I'll get that BFP but I get let down everytijme. Sometimes I feel that maybe this isn't what God has in store for me. If its not I wish he would just take this desire from my heart.

I won't be posting for a while. I need to take a break from the site.

I know how you feel. But I promise God has a plan for you. Nothing in life is easy just place your trust, love and faith in God. I know easier said then done. I have struggled for the last 7 months. But I know the God I serve is real. He sees your tears and hears your cry, just know He is on the way. If you give up now you just might miss Him. So please don't give up. Be encouragred and bless. :hugs:

Aww honey i know hoe you feel i was ttc for over two years then lost my baby :cry:

U WILL have a baby! Its in Gods time unfortunately.And he has picked a great time for me :) well it could have been sooner :haha:

:hugs: thinking of you xx


I used to think every month with bfn was a month closer to bfp xx
 
:hugs:

I know how hard it is Prayingtogod. I don't know how many times I cried myself to sleep feeling that I was broken. With part of my mind I knew that I would get pregnant in Gods time, but the rest of me begged God for it to happen already.
I don't think it's His plan for anyone to suffer with infertility forever, but I think that sometimes He might use it as a teaching opportunity for us.

I do pray that you will be comforted until your time comes, and that it might be soon. :hugs:
