This post reminded me during the time in our lives when we were undergoing work up ourselves. Having been a couple of years married then, we just had to get ourselves checked. As sickly as I have always been from childhood, it was a surprise that the problem was not with me. I ovulate almost every month, and with the hubby's SA, it has not made us very hopeful. You know what, it was when we stopped trying to conceive and going to the doctor altogether for the work ups that the Lord granted us our son. It was a complete surprise. There was no way we could have expected it. It was like a miracle of miracles. We were like contemplating that maybe one day we would have to adopt a child of sorts. God is good. I am not sure if the honey regimen helped but we did that a few months before I conceived. http://www.marriageandbeyond.com/2007/07/29/the-healing-properties-of-honey-and-cinnamon/ And the day I conceived was a night stay in Status Hotel. The manager is one of our ninongs from our wedding. It was a gift from him. This hotel boasts of christian staff and they only allow wedded couples in. We had to show our marriage certificate when we got in. Their staff would go from room to room and pray for each couple by the door.(our ninong said, because they did not really come knocking to tell us they're praying for us). They even hold bible study groups for the hotel staff. I am not sure if it was at all coincidental, but with a cycle that's ever regular and knowing that that was the only possible time that I conceived and we were in that place, we knew it was more than just coincidence. If there is anything we are sure about it is this, the Lord knows perfectly the right time to give us our heart's desire. Please know that I will be keeping you in my prayers. God bless you and Warren! :-) Hi Hazel! This post reminded me during the time in our lives when we were undergoing work up ourselves.

Warren and I decided to stop from undergoing fertility treatments. For now it seems that he plans to stop temporarily but he could also be considering stopping it altogether, for good. I can only stand by the sidelines and let my husband lead me into the future. I am too exhausted emotionally and even physically to still think and make future plans of action. Anyway, we both agreed that this may not be the time to pursue medical intervention. We agreed that our faith teaches us to rely on God and trust in His mercy and grace, that no matter how much we could spend and if ever we decided to spend for treatments, we will not conceive if God would not allow it. In the same manner, we will conceive even if we do not undergo fertility work ups if God wants to give us a child. Either way, there really isn’t anything man, medicine, science and technology can do unless God wills it.

I have grown to love you as a couple even though I have never met you. I wish we could meet one day, maybe it will have to be in glory. I sometimes do not understand, I am the worst of sinners and I did not even deserve to be saved. I have 3 children, one I have not met who is due today actually. So this post makes me want to cry as I think why has the Lord given me children, why me. I feel and I know I do not deserve them. Sometimes I look at them when they are in bed and cry, and I think of people like you, I think of all those babies that are killed in abortions. But let me encourage you, only God knows why now is not the best time, trust him and count it all joy. God is doing a far greater work in both of you than you can ever imagine, and the sufferings of this world are nothing compared to the glory that is going to be revealed in us at the coming of our Lord Jesus. You are loved Hazel and Warren, so never be discouraged. <abbr><em><abbr><em>Jeans last blog post..<a href="http://thewomanofvirtue.blogspot.com/2008/09/ray-comforts-blog.html" rel="nofollow">Ray Comfort's Blog</a></em></abbr></em></abbr> Hazel and Warren you are in my prayers.
