Contentment - Joy

'The Lord has done great things for us, and we are filled with JOY'. Psalm 126:3. I found this verse while trying to get pregnant after my son Elijah and after already having an ectopic pregnancy that almost took my life and losing a baby at 17 weeks. My thought was to use it as the next child's verse. Elijah's verse is '...for this child we have prayed' and Rachael's is 'you were knit in secret in your mother's womb'. Alas there would be another pregnancy, but not another child. And now my hysterectomy ended the possibility. The grief and anger did almost do me in.... but I can honestly say I am content and filled with joy, because God does offer me grace. Do I still want my babies, yes, do I still struggle with grief, yes, anger too, will I always do so, probably. But I have a God who loves me still. I have two beautiful children. I did not die from all my illness. AND I have a husband who is more loved and more wonderful than words. I am content.
