Prayer Request
Why do I have to struggle to conceive a child? I'm soon to be 34 single with a good education, good job and love for my creator. I try my best to live in accordance with his plan for my life, but I still haven't been able to bare children. Just found out that a friend of mine recently came off birth control and is pregnant after just two months of trying. I've been trying for three years, but having only one ovary and needing medical assistance, I'm left childless. I fear I will become bitter and hateful since I can't have the only thing I've wanted. I hate being around children and pregnant women b/c I am struggling. Everytime I try to remain positive, the devil steals my joy. I feel this is my punishment for something I've done. I hate this feeling. I dont want to adopt, but I wouldn't be able to being single in my state. If this is the punishment I deserve, then please let death come swiftly. I hate this useless and damaged feeling I have daily. Please end my suffering. I know not the burden you carried for my sins and I do not know what true sacrifice is oh Lord. Please deliver you child from this sullen state. I fear I am a waste and not able to do what a woman is to do. My roots seem to have withered and thus no longer able to produce fruit and multiply. Why are so many who are undeserving and vile, being blessed with children yet not I? At your feet I place my life. Into your hands I commend my spirit. Do with me as you will Lord for I have no way of directing my own path. I plead for your mercy. AMEN.
