I so want to help others.
My husband has offered to let me be a "stay at home mom". I would like to go back to school to become a sign language interpreter. I am still thinking on all that before I quit my "day" job.
I keep watching those struggling with infertility and/or pregnancy loss. I would love to be a surrogate again. I know my age and the fact that I had a c-section is against me. I just saw a video today from a mom who lost a pregnancy at 13 weeks. A friend on facebook has this as her status "This week we remember all babies born sleeping, or those we've carried but never met, those we have held but could not take home, or those that we have brought home, but didn't stay. Make this your profile status if you, or someone you love, has suffered the loss ...of a child. The majority won't do it because unlike cancer, the loss of a baby is still a taboo subject. Break the silence!♥" I know the heartbreak is out there. I want to do more than just put this in my status.
One year ago today I was getting ready for a FET. This past weekend my "baby" boy went on his first official "NOT" date to homecoming. He is so perfect and the adventures we get to live with him are amazing gifts from God. I want to help other parents get the same opportunities.
Pray for me as I look for the opportunity God has waiting for me. Pray for those struggling with loss or infertility. My Bible verse of the day, the other day, was "Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.Colossians 3:12-14"
- Compassion
- Kindness
- Humility
- Gentleness
- Patience
- Forgiveness
- Love (the glue that holds it together)
Heavenly Father, give me these qualities. Help me to develop them and use them. Help me to love those around me and those far away. Help me to find the work you have set before me and the courage and strength to finish it. God bless me as only you can. In Jesus' name. Amen
