I know it’s been a while since I’ve written - but I’ve been out living life and it got a little hectic ;-). As many of you know, my husband Steve and I have been trying to get pregnant for about 1-1/2 years now. I just found out recently that I’m going to have to see a reproductive endocrinologist because my hormones are wonky. That really threw me for a loop and I felt like less of a woman because I couldn’t do the one thing that only a woman can do.
But God’s really been working in me to recognize when Satan is lying to me and that’s a BIG one. So I’m actually doing pretty good about the whole situation - we don’t know if the Dr can help us or not - I still have to meet with him or her (I’m asking my endocrinologist for a recommendation and I’m not meeting with her until mid-June).
Along with all of the getting pregnant issue is the feeling that we should adopt too. In the course of 3 weeks I had 2 separate friends mention adopting one or more of the freed slave children from Ghana (our church is helping fund a ministry that helps free these kids from slavery working on the lakes in Ghana) and there were 3 different daily devotions about adoption that my husband and I read together. I think God’s starting to hit me over the head with the 2X4 again. I’ve just started doing some research and Vietnam has kept popping up. Both Steve and I are feeling called, we’re just not sure when and where. It’s something that we are praying about a lot.
I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what God has planned for us over the next couple of months.
