Infertility Encouragement from Sarah's LaughterSample

Healing

Anyone who's experienced the heartache of infertility must face the reality of bodies that do not work properly. The only things consistent about our cycles are their inconsistencies. Every month that passes without a positive pregnancy test is another blatant declaration that our bodies have failed us—again. The physical frustration of infertility can be a heavy burden to bear.

Do you realize that God truly cares about your physical health? When Jesus died on Calvary, He made a way for sin to be forgiven forever. However, do you realize that forgiveness of sin was not the only provision Christ made for you? When Jesus died on Calvary, He also made provision for the healing of your body. The wounds made on His body were placed there so that wounds on your body could be healed.

If your heart has been broken by the diagnosis of a physical ailment that hinders your ability to conceive, find the freedom offered you in Scripture to pray for the healing of your physical body. When you pray about your infertility, it's okay to be specific; go ahead and name endometriosis or varicoceles, for example. Think of it as putting a target in spiritual crosshairs. Build your faith by submerging yourself in the Word of God. Read it. Memorize it. Believe it.

God hears your cries for healing, and there is no illness or disease that God cannot heal. Today's readings are each about healing. Build your faith by consuming God’s Word today.
