“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” —Galatians 6:9

As I sit here at work today I stumbled on this article. I think its totally true. I know that God has a plan for me and if it involves children great and if not then I need to figure out what I want to do or really what am I called to do. I feel like I am called to be a mother. I love children and I just feel like thats what I'm supposed to do.
I am enjoying my time with my husband. So its not like its all for naught. I feel closer to him than ever before and we are in this together. Its just hard to feel like this. And we both feel the same way.
I am entering the ovulation time of my cycle and I just feel like its never going to happen. I don't really think that I will ever be a mom. I never really saw myself graduating from college or married either.
Now I am trying to figure out how to be ok with it. I know that God has a plan and me wanting it now won't make it happen any faster. I guess that it really boils down to patience something I am truly lacking.

Our most gracious and attentive Lord,
Help us to remember that you move in your time, knowing as only you know the perfect time and the perfect way to answer our prayers. The flower begins at seed—a seed we neither see nor understand. And gradually the seed sprouts, still deep within the damp earth, hidden from our vision. We may be tempted to believe it is not growing, and yet if we dig it up to calm our doubts, we will damage it and stunt its full blossom. Help us to be ever mindful, dear Father, that you have planted the seeds of peace for your children. Help us to continue to walk with you and know you more, growing ever stronger in our faith that what you have promised you will do, even when we do not yet have the physical evidence we seek.
AMEN!
