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?

How to Survive the Holidays

How to Survive the Holidays

The most wonderful time of year? What happens when kids are jingle belling and everyone is telling you, “Be of good cheer,” and you just can’t do it?

Surviving (all) the Holidays

Surviving (all) the Holidays

Infertility, loss, and waiting are difficult enough without the constant reminders blaring bright red and green on your fridge in the form of effortlessly growing families.

The Weary World Rejoices : Christmas Day

And because of THAT baby, we can have Hope now as we wait. Without that long awaited baby 2000 years ago, we wouldn’t be able to wait with such expectant hope now. A baby has come for you - remember that. While you wait for your own child, remember that you have received salvation because God came in the form of a baby - FOR YOU.

And let’s talk about how this baby came and what surrounded His entry into this waiting world. The Israelites were expecting a man to come in and take control as an earthly king and put all of Rome to shame. Don’t get me wrong, Jesus did that - but not how they expected it. Let’s just go ahead and list out all the things that didn’t seem “right” or expected for Jesus’ first coming…
