Weary

I am amazed at the perseverance of women trying to conceive. I don't know how they find strength each month..trying and trying and trying...

This is my 7 month and I am weary. Waking up at 3:45 each morning to take my temp even on the weekend just to keep with the consistency...the disappointments every month that passes without a child...timing intercourse...the extra aches and pains that come with taking a fertility drug...always trusting that God is in control...sometimes I wish that God would tell me, "Jessica I want you to have kids on x date so you can rest till then." . . . or that he would just bless me with them this cycle and 8.5/9 months later I can enjoy my own children. I am weary. I am defeated. God grant me strength. God bless my tired heart with its desire- my own children.

Rest in Jesus who said, "Come to me all who are weary and heavy-laden and I will give you rest." Just keep praying for it and trusting that he'll give it to you.

It is a long hard daily struggle since you have to maintain something every day, so it keeps reminding you, but you can find rest amongst the pressure!
