In this episode, we talk openly about the unexpected struggle of infertility. The despair, lonliness, and confusion–but also how the Lord met me in an unexpected and powerful way.

(I also share ways you can support and honor a friend walking through infertility.) So, please tune into our conversation, I believe it will encourage your heart, no matter what season you are in.

Culture· Growing in God· Truth for your soul

Because no matter what else happens this crazy year–Jesus already knows about it. And whether the sky comes crashing down in giant flaming pieces, or the mountains burst apart and fall into the heart of the sea, or world war breaks out to the ends of the earth, or (I could list A LOT of my worst case scenarios here…but I will spare you the details of my own crazy mind.) The point is, no matter what happens, Jesus promises this:
“I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.” John 10:28
No one will snatch them out of my hand.

Listen to my Audio Infertility Wilderness Story

Infertility

Are you thirsty?

Are you restless?

I was.

Especially in the season of infertility. I was trying my HARDEST to read scripture, and to hope in the Lord…

but my soul was all over the place. And pretty soon, I found myself in a dry, barren season of the soul.

The wilderness.

And no one could save me from it.

Except, Jesus.

You see, something about Jesus, is that He is not afraid to enter wildernesses. He is not afraid of the dry, barren places within us. He’s not afraid of our hard questions, or tears.

How To Be Watered in the Wilderness of Infertility

Infertility· Trying To Conceive· TTC

When you are trying to conceive (TTC) and unable to get pregnant, it can make you weary. Trying to conceive, month after month, is exhausting, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

When we were trying to conceive, my emotions were all over the place. Sometimes, I was full of faith and hope. And sometimes, I felt bitter and numb inside, forcing my feelings down and not daring to hope–because it was too painful to hope.

But Christ met me in that wilderness place.
