Navigating Pregnancy Loss & Trying to Conceive: A 5-Day PlanBài mẫu

It takes courage to keep going when your baby’s heart has stopped. When it comes to pregnancy after miscarriage or stillbirth, it takes courage to try again when previous attempts have, at times, made you wish your own heart had stopped. It takes courage to attempt what seems impossible—to believe that God might write a happy ending to your story of loss even when he has allowed it to be so painful. It takes courage to allow yourself to dream again when you’ve become so intimately acquainted with the things of nightmares. It takes courage to give your hand to God and allow him to lead you through what could very well be a treacherous journey. Yes, it takes courage to forge ahead when hope and healing have been in short supply; yet you have been courageous all along and accompanied by a God who hasn’t left your side. In pursuing a subsequent pregnancy, you’re courageously choosing to believe that God is good and that he can redeem your history of loss—even when you don’t understand why it’s part of your story in the first place. Even with loss still fresh in your mind, you can find the courage to try again by leaning on the God of help. Read his promises and let them sink into your empty spaces. Slip your hand in his, and rest in the certainty that he won’t let go. Walk bravely forward knowing he’s walking right next to you. Prayer Lord, remind me that you have grasped my hand and are leading me through the shadows that mark my life. You are my help, God, in the seasons past and the seasons to come. When I am afraid of what the future holds, let me find peace in knowing that you hold me. Amen.
