Do you want to know what it is?
She told me that she believed I was specifically called to Motherhood and from the moment she met me in bible study she could see that motherhood held a different meaning for me. It was something deeper and more intentional.
Imagine, that.
Me, the infertile one.
Me the motherless one.
I was called to motherhood.
The deepest yearning of my heart has led to the contentment of my soul—- through the gift of motherhood.
And it’s visible.
How encouraging that is for someone who frequently feels she falls short; Who goes to bed almost every night thinking, “I could have done today better. I have to try harder tomorrow.”
Is this you, too?
I am so glad that my intentions are visible. That my purpose and calling show through the imperfect mess that is me. I hope it glorifies God.
I believe that God is a loving God and not a cruel one. I believe He would never give you a strong desire for something that He doesn’t intend to bless you with. I do think that sometimes we don’t see His will. Sometimes the path He chooses for us is different than the typical path, or different than the path we imagined. But that should not detract us from believing and wanting God’s best for us.
