Worship Songs for When You’re Struggling

The blurb at the bottom of this post contains affiliate links to help keep this blog running. This morning I went for a run. Getting outside to run is a way I meet with God, it’s a place to pour my heart out to  Him. Sometimes angry feet hit the ground, other times running is…

Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Grief, and Church

One year, on the day before Father’s Day, I took a walk, pondering how the holiday did not bother me nearly as much as Mother’s Day did. During the years when I struggled to conceive, Mother’s Day was too painful for me to even know how to handle it. I managed to cope and I was…

Churches: Keep Praying for Those Longing for Children

The other night I walked into a church service to the sound of these words being sung: “I’ve seen You move, You move the mountains And I believe, I’ll see You do it again You made a way, where there was no way And I believe, I’ll see You do it again…” (The song “Do…

Identity and Infertility

This morning I pondered Isaiah 61, a passage with beautiful descriptions of joy instead of mourning, which has been a theme woven through the past year of my life.
