Sometimes it all gets to be overwhelming and my faith gets shaken. It seems like endless appointments, bloodwork, procedures, and surgeries. Lately it feels like when we fix one thing, something else comes up. I have to give myself pep talks continuously and sometimes it works…sometimes it doesn’t. I try to remember that it’s ok to cry and be angry, but I have to remember that God is in control.

Someone told me this past week that it doesn’t matter what I do, what medications I take, and how I try to control the situation, it will be all God’s timing. That struck a nerve…because it’s true. I know it’s true. I have asked God for patience in the wait because this is a very difficult experience to wait out. Especially when there’s nothing I can do to make it happen.

I’ve been working on surrendering it over to God and leaving it there. At times I am a pro! I can give it to him and brush it off month after month. But when these months turn into years, it gets difficult. We are in year 4 of trying. Trying to do what is supposed to come naturally for me as a woman. I hand it over to God and then try and take it back.

It gets really hard when I think back to getting pregnant twice in one year and once exactly a year later….then nothing. I ask God…what have I done between then and now that I can no longer conceive. It was so easy for me then…what’s up now? Honestly….I haven’t gotten an answer yet. I don’t know that I will. This is a difficult journey, but I’m going to make it through. I know I am. I know that when I do get my blessing it will be in his perfect timing and the experience will be beyond my wildest imagination. But I need prayer though this wait…

This is HUGE!!! I am ecstatic that they are well on their way to finding treatment or even cures to SIDS! Prayers for all the parents who have lost their little ones to SIDS and wondered what they could have done differently. I pray this research brings you some type of peace.

It really is. Cut yourself some slack. Perfect is an illusion and I couldn’t imagine the stress to try and be or maintain “perfect”. You are amazing just the way you are!

I wanted to share part of my early morning devotion with everyone! Sometimes I start to lose faith in God and doubt his promises for me and I PROMISE every single time he finds a way to bring me back!
💙💞
I hope this blesses someone today as it did me!

Remembering the Miracles...

​Taking some time to remember that it takes time for miracles to happen.

In my prayer and devotion I get a lot of encouragement and words of wisdom from God. Not too long ago he put on my heart, and reminds me daily, that yes, I am going through a trial, but as long as I keep my faith and believe he is still a God of miracles, not only will my miracle come, but the experience will be beyond anything I could ever imagine.

I ask that you all remember that even when things seem to be going wrong and you think you can’t hold on any longer, God is still in control and your miracle is just a moment away!

With love,
Dr. A
