My God is a God of Miracles

My God is a God of miracles.  Nothing is impossible for Him.  He has shown that to me many times, however, there has always been one area that I have longed for a miracle to occur in.  For almost six years now, my husband and I have tried to get pregnant.  We have tried different doctors and finally last November I had surgery to see if it would help us concieve.  Nothing seemed to help.  We tried all those things loving, well-meaing relatives and friends tell you.  Just relax, put your feet over your head, stop thinking about it,...the list really does go on forever.  However, month after month was the same heart-breaking realization.  I was not pregnant.  Other people, with the exception of my sister-in-law, could get pregnancy easily.  It seemed there for a few years I always knew at least one person who was pregnant.  I finally made the decision that this month I would go to the doctor and start our last option.  Our doctor wanted to put me into medically induced menopause to reverse my condition with hopes that maybe in a year, I would be able to start trying again.  That is something that scared me more than surgery did. 
However, yesterday, Sunday, June 12, 2011, I realized I was late.  I had actually missed my period by several days.  So this morning, I woke my husband up from his sleep in screaming tears.  Praise be to my God because I am PREGNANT!!!!  I give Him all the honor, all the glory, and all the praise.  I know this blessing is from Him.  I know that my body doesn't work like it is supposed to work.  I have spent many sleepless nights in tears crying out to God for a baby.  I don't know why Wade and I had to wait so many years, however, I do want to say to all those other women who are waiting on a miracle that can only come from God, DO NOT GIVE UP HOPE.  Nothing is impossible for our God.
