Prayer Request

I feel led by the Spirit to ask you to pray for me this month specifically for the Lord to open my womb. I have felt this on my heart for a few days and have just kept trying to suppress it. In the shower this morning I felt overwhelmed with emotion as I recognized my disobedience by keeping my thoughts to myself. I knew that the reason for me feeling this way is for God to receive all the glory in this long struggle of mine. I ask you to intercede and beg in my behalf that God would move mountains in order to display the manifestation of His glory. I have even fed led to be bold in my prayer journal and have been asking for not just one but two babies. Seems crazy, I know, but God can do anything, and the more people that are aware of it, the more He is glorified through it. I feel led to lift up specifically my unsaved doctor as well, who still scoffs at me giving God so much credit through this entire process. He is still playing a major role in all this. I covet your prayers, fellow warriors for Christ. Be bold and plead on my behalf...

"As soon as you began to pray, an answer was given, which I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed." Daniel 9:23

Praying and watching for your answer.

As someone who is dealing with infertility myself. I know the pain and emptiness you are feeling. You are in my prayers.

Oh sister----I am praying for you! I'm asking the Lord to bring you to mind continually so I can lift you up to Him often. God has NOT forgotten you, nor your needs or desires. You are precious to Him! Thanks for bearing your soul and being honest.

Done, again and again! I promise! Thanks for being authentic. Its an encouragement to me. Katy nailed it...your needs and desires aren't forgotten!

I read a verse last week that was simple but to the point. I needed to hear it for myself and thought of you too.
"Have no fear of bad news; have a heart that is steadfast, trusting in the LORD." In your case, no news is bad news to all of us! I know you're trusting God but I'm also praying that you continue to be bold and without fear through all of this. I'm believing and I know you are too!

My friends in Doha are praying for you too. I love you so much and want a baby for you more than you know. -wen

Shannon, the Lord gave me Psalm 28:7 when I was going through a difficult time, "The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song." I love how it ends with David's heart leaping for joy, I am praying that for you.
