series on the r house.

The R House is doing a series of posts on Understanding and Supporting Pregnancy Loss.  Please read and follow the series if you have a chance.  There has already been and I am sure there will be wonderful insight to come.   I commented that "I feel like the pain really never goes away, you just learn how to deal with it and suppress it. Those feelings come back…sometimes full force when I hear stories like this or sometimes they surface at unexpected (and embarrassing) times. The fear that it will happen again also stays. Thank you and love to these Mothers who shared their experiences and true raw feelings."

he knows ALL.

I wanted to share with you a scripture that has helped me get through many hard days.  In 2 Nephi 2:24 of the Book of Mormon it says:

But behold, all things have been done in the wisdom of him who knoweth all things.

I ran across this scripture in the temple one day and it not only helped me to get through the specific trial of miscarriage and infertility, but many other trials since.  It is my favorite scripture and I felt like I should share it here.  I feel like it was telling me that God knows all and that he gives us certain trials so that we can learn and grow.  He has given us these things in wisdom, knowing the outcome and knowing that we will become strong and immovable in our testimonies of Him.  I brings me comfort to know that God will help us, and as we are depending and trusting in Him, we can get through.

blessings through raindrops.

I wanted to share this, in case you may have not heard this song yet.  Everytime I hear it, it touches me to the core.
