Reflection....

Oh, how I understand the heartache of a mama in waiting... the ache of a mother's arms who is waiting to hold her child... the battle the enemy wages against you when you have waited and prayed years and years for the Lord to bring your first child to you and yet you still wait..... My heart breaks for someone very dear to me as she still waits to find her children and to know the joy of holding your child in your arms for the first time... the joy of being a mama with your babies home... and even more importantly knowing they are home and safe...
How often I felt Sarah's pain as I waited to hold my first born in my arms.... (Yes, my son was adopted but he is my oldest and he is my first born... born from the womb of his birth mother and born from my heart) This longing to be a mommy that can feel so overwhelming at times it threatens to devour you...
To my dear sister in the Lord and to any one else who is reading this I want to encourage you to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and to stay the coarse. God loves you so much and as HARD as this is... He has a plan for you.... one day you will hold your babies in your arms and as bad as it hurt to wait for them..... as hard as it was.... you will thank God that you waited, for in doing so you received GOD's plan for you.... the child (children) HE chose for you and it is so sweet... You will thank Him that they are home, safe, and loved because He brought them home just like He always knew He would, in His perfect timing.... Now once again I sit here in awe of His faithfulness and His love... my Isabella Faith is home... she is sleeping in her little bed... I can reach out and touch her... Thank You Jesus for this precious miracle...To God be the glory!

I wanted to share this post that I wrote years ago because it tells of some of my struggles as I waited to become a mother for the first time. I pray the Lord is able to use it to minister to you sweet Rachelle and to any other mama out there who is still without her baby...
God's peace and God's speed....
