Why ARE we so much more susceptible to guilt than men? I don’t get it. But it’s true.

It’s hard to see what God is doing when we’re in the middle of the mess, but He often allows us to look back and see how He has used it for good. Thanks for sharing. Pinning on my “Posts Worth Reading” board. Blessings!

God put the Psalms in the heart of the Bible for the heart of man(woman) and we find there that gut wrenching, angry, trusting by a thread kind of faith that He puts us through to know Him better.

Authenticity and honesty will always beat the cliches. Always. Thank you for sharing, Nylse.

Oh Julie. Ten years is a long time to run in place. I am so glad God has carried you past it and given you rest.

I started my blog about 6 or 8 months after M1 and wrote in retrospect. That was right around when we started IF treatments and M2. I landed upon a great community of other women bloggers going through the same thing, and it was very helpful having that circle around me during M2 and IF. But when I was pregnant with the twins, I barely blogged at all. My fears were too real and I couldn’t bring myself to do it. I have a few things now that I’m not able to write about, but I’m praying God will have a space for those stories down the road.

I strongly dislike when Christians get cliche – it’s the Lords will..etc.I’d rather authenticity and honesty around my circumstances. I don’t think we need to fool ourselves. God knows. He knows. So I’d rather be authentic as my faith is growing. Thanks for sharing

I felt like I was just running in place much of the time. It’s so wonderful to be able to look back on it now and see (and feel) what was going on behind the scenes. Because of that time (and a few others), I can have strong confidence in Him and His plans for my life.
