There is a saying I like “look forward, because you are headed that way”.

If you are a driver, you know that your main focus should in front ahead of you. .

Yes, we occasionally glance at the rear view mirror before making a turn, but mostly we focus on the road ahead.

Infertility is a constant journey of endless glances backwards.

Recounting that one time you sipped a glass of wine or made a horrible mistake which you are too ashamed to speak of, that old relationship where, perhaps if you had been nicer maybe things would have worked out with another partner.

Endless glances backwards.

we take our eyes off the future, and our hopes and instead regrets sets in, trapping us in guilt and misery of the past.

This is what infertility does, it robs you of enjoying simple everyday stuff, as your whole life is engrossed with endless questions of when will I become a mother? When will it be my turn?

It can be so isolating that it seems no one can comprehend the depts of your pain.

My encouragement for you today is to keep looking forward, look unto Jesus, your maker and creator who made you and knows your inner most desires.

He put those desires there, keep bringing them to him and look up to him. He will respond to your cries for help with Grace and mercy.

He is the author of your story and the finisher of it .

Stay in Peace as you wait.
