Infertility With A Purpose - The Beginning!

 Hey y'all! 

Welcome to my blog! Infertility With a Purpose! 

Okay, so I will be honest. I have felt called to create a blog about my journey with infertility for a long time. I have always LOVED writing, and I have felt like God has gifted me with the gift of words, but I have been unsure of how to use this gift. I am not sure who will even read this. If it will be any help to anyone at all, but I have such a heart and a deep desire to create a community through this ongoing season of my life with other women who are going through this same grief. 

So..... here it goes! Here's to creating a blog and starting the conversation! 

Reminding women everywhere that, while dealing with infertility, GOD HAS A PURPOSE!

Let me introduce myself and tell you a little about my story! 

Hi! I am Sarah! My husband Dereck and I have been married for 10 years and have had a really blessed life and marriage together! God has been so faithful to us in every aspect of our journey thus far. We are so lucky to have loving families and friends and wonderful careers. However, along with all these blessings, there has been some of the darkest grief and despair I have ever known in my entire life. Infertility. It's a word no woman or couple ever wants to hear. However, this has been our reality for the last 6 years. I won't go into all the details, YET, (don't worry that will come in later blogs), but this has been without a doubt the greatest testing of my faith in my 33 years of existence. If you have every experienced infertility, or you are currently walking through this right now, you know exactly what I mean by, dark dark times. 

I can't give all the things away yet.... I want y'all to keep reading my blog everyday! 😊

This blog has a purpose... bringing together a community of women/couples around the globe that have either struggled with infertility in the past or are currently going through it right now, like me. I want to create a safe space for people who are needing to talk, wanting to share Scripture, wanting to share some encouragement, needing prayer, or sharing in joys/excitements of what it can look like on the other side of infertility. Let's keep the conversation going, and not leave anyone in the dark. I have tried to live a private life dealing with infertility. Dealing with it in isolation. Please believe me, that is NOT the way to do this. God created for relationship and He wants us to support and love on each other. Here is our chance, y'all! 

Got a story? Got a Scripture to share? Got a word of encouragement? Got a prayer need? Got a need? Please share it! I'd love to walk alongside of you! 

Scripture of the day:  Isaiah 45: 2-3
