Several years ago my husband and I started to regret not having any children. We were both older and thought that we would pray and try for a while and see what happened, sure enough two months later we were pregnant. But as soon as our prayers were answered it was taken away just as fast. I was so devastated and I am not going to lie, my mind was so full of questions, wondering what I had done to deserve what felt like a punishment, finding myself at the altar asking God to forgive me for all the questioning going on in my head. I never stopped praying for another baby. About five years later someone asked if we would give a friend of theirs a chance to work for us, we hired him without ever meeting him, not knowing God was sending this person to us for a reason. About two years went by and he came to work and told us his wife was pregnant, and that they were thinking of giving their baby up for adoption.. I knew as soon as those words came out of his mouth this was going to be my answered prayer with no doubt in my mind I just knew. Several months later we were bringing home our God sent tiny baby from the hospital. I thank God for this baby everyday. God knows our future. Everything happens on God’s time so if you are going thru something and feel like giving up, be patient, your miracle is coming if you just keep the faith and believe. God is so good.
