A Prayer for Love When Struggling with Infertility
Heavenly Father, You know the longing of my heart and the tears I have cried in secret. Hold me in this waiting. Where there is pain in my marriage, bring healing. Where there is envy, bring grace. Where there is doubt, bring trust. I bring my desire for a child openly to You and ask You to do whatever brings the most glory to Your name and the most good to my soul — biological children, adopted children, or a calling that fills my arms in ways I have not yet imagined. Comfort me in the meantime. In Jesus' name, Amen.
