Fighting through the storm Happily Waiting
-
- Christianity
Fighting through the storm is like pushing through a mountain literally. We have come from accepting that it is okay to not be okay, to grieve over the loss, know yourself in Christ, love yourself, be happy and live in the moment!
Even after all these the storm still comes but you have to face it and fight it to remain happy.
Infertility is a journey and not a final destination. A journey because you will get to the place of having your children.
During my fighting through the storm moments, one thing kept me going and it was knowing God was always with me because He told me not to be afraid.
Psalm 28:7 AMP “The Lord is my strength and my (impenetrable) shield; my heart trusts (with unwavering confidence) in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song I shall thank Him and praise Him”.
Psalm 56:3 ESV “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you”.
Isaiah 41:13 ESV ‘For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Fear not, I am the one who helps you”.
These scriptures will give you the assurance of God’s faithfulness.
He is an “impenetrable shield” nothing can get in! So when you stay in God, you can face the storm head on and out at the other side stronger, victorious and happy.
I saw an instagram reel that spoke about the metaphor of the cow and the buffalo. They both sense the storm coming but the cow runs away and the buffalo runs into the storm! The cow gets tired and exhausted, because the storm caught up with it remains in the storm longer than it should, and ends up miserable and guilty. But the buffalo on the other hand, after facing the initial terrifying fear, comes out of the storm appreciating the water and grass that it bought with it.
Who have you been, the cow or the buffalo?
Who would you rather be now, the cow or the buffalo?
