Thank you so much for sharing this. My husband and I have been struggling with infertility for five years. To make a super-long story short, 2 1/2 years ago we were one week away from starting IVF. Suddenly, out of the blue we were blessed with the opportunity to adopt our daughter. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that she is the child the Lord had for us. She’s absolutely amazing.

Now, I’m coming down with the baby bug again, and am finding myself so discouraged and frustrated, even though I know the mighty things the Lord can do.

Your post was such an encouragement to me. Blessings to you in the new year!

Great post to close one year and look ahead to the next. So enjoy your thoughts, you always make me laugh and hit the points just what I’m thinking on topics too, from childhood to husbands, deer hunting to scarves, 1980′s big hair to aloe deoderant to start this
new decade….. And everything in between, thanks!!

God used you today. I may have to print, cut and post this to my wall. I recently drew a picture of where I see my life in 3 years. Everyone was in it except me. I am glad God sees my future because I am clueless!
And on a funny note, on the post-it next to me going to Target it says, “Deodorant, containers, white socks”

Happy New Year Melanie!

I’m catching up on your posts tonight, and this one struck me. Earlier today, a friend sent me a poem called, “The Invisible Mother” … have you read it before? It totally clicked with me, and the feelings you describe from the past year are so similar to mine! Give it a read, and set your sights on having a Happy, blessed and prosperous 2010!

Thanks for the great post! I’m so in the same place!! I really want to hear, see and feel God this year! My focus is on being a servant to Him. I’m reading Dug Down Deep by Joshua Harris, great book to start off the year with purpose!

Ummm…everyone is all inspirational and saying lovely things, but I just want you to know that I started using this deodorant too after many years attached to another…and I LOVE it. It doesn’t smell like B.O. with a cucumber accent. It just smells nice.
