Paula Mowery: Relationship with God - As I
faced my infertility battle, I'm afraid I pushed
God to the side. I came to realize that I was
afraid to let go of any control I thought I had
because I feared that my goals and God's
wouldn't match up. Of course, I had to come to
the end of myself just like the prodigal son. I
had no control over whether I got pregnant or
not. That fact frustrated me and embittered me
to the point of depression. When I finally
admitted to myself and God that I didn't have
control and I needed Him, my attitude changed.
By returning to my relationship with the Lord, I
could better face disappointments, especially
when I accepted the fact that God wasn't
punishing me. His promise is true when He says
He will be with us in the valleys. He is the
greatest source of comfort and really will bring
good out of bad situations.
