I specifically came to you for a hug because I knew for just those few seconds, someone would understand. Someone would ask how I was and get it when I said it had been a rough week. <3 Thank you for being that for me.Brandy Millerhttp://asweetaroma215.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255824855444877789.post-49630699539897247692015-03-05T14:53:30.979-05:002015-03-05T14:53:30.979-05:00God's Word has so many wonderful verses to com...God's Word has so many wonderful verses to comfort and encourage through anything we might face in life. I love when he illuminates certain scriptures to me that stand out for the specific trial I am facing at any time. Believing God for anything in life grows and strengthens our faith. The more we wait for it, the more our faith can grows. God gave us an awesome promise in Mark 11:24-"Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours."<br /><br />One thing He doesn't promise is to give us what we've prayed for when we want it. We have to remember that God doesn't operate in the finite realm of time like we do. He sees things long term so to Him our prayers are already answered, even if we can't see it in the natural yet. We are to walk by faith and not by sight, so once we pray we should believe that it is done.Mandi Roachnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255824855444877789.post-10056307810271638622015-03-05T14:47:13.615-05:002015-03-05T14:47:13.615-05:00Oh Brandy, how my heart breaks for you...month aft...Oh Brandy, how my heart breaks for you...month after month. And when I saw you in church Sunday morning, and we embraced, and you were so upset, I just wanted to sweep you away to a quiet corner, give you a big hug and let the tears flow. There is no shame or embarrassment in the uncontrollable tears that come, sometimes without warning or even when we least expect them. In a separate post, you mentioned the 16th disappointment. You KNOW I understand that feeling. After 70+ disappointments of my own, I can tell you that I do understand. All the feelings you are dealing with, the pain in seeing pregnant women and babies all around you...and I know it seems like they are EVERYWHERE...like raindrops, you can't seem to dodge them. It's painful, but know that God is making you stronger and changing your life for what is yet to come...whatever that may be. Everything happens for a reason. And HE is that reason. As difficult as it may be for you to see now why you are having to go through all of this....down the road, when things fall into place the way He intends them to be, you will be able to see the magnitude of His plans for you and your life. In the meantime, know that I am here for you. Any time. To listen. To cry with. To comfort. To talk with. To just be.Rosemarienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255824855444877789.post-4707214158348697232015-03-05T13:59:43.754-05:002015-03-05T13:59:43.754-05:00Yes yes it is.

The facing people is the most difficult. Even now, my cycle's over and I still feel myself resisting seeing anyone.Brandy Millerhttp://asweetaroma215.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255824855444877789.post-67874841423931169982015-03-05T13:57:03.863-05:002015-03-05T13:57:03.863-05:00:( I'm so sorry to hear that Abby.
