Future

This week, we are doing our second IUI.  Talking to the doctor, looked a little something like this....



With all the test results in full view, the doctor said we can go forward with this next IUI, but that after this she does not recommend any more.  This one she gave us a 1-5%.... ish chance. This was a huge blow.   We really had just gotten it in our heads that IUI was going to be the procedure for us.

Our response?  A bit like Lloyd here.  We are hopeful for Friday's IUI.  But we also are trusting God for the future of our family.  Today's Jesus Calling  was perfect for me today.

"I am leading you, step by step, through your life.  Hold My hand in trusting dependence, letting Me guide you through this day.  Your future looks uncertain and fells flimsy-even precarious.  That is how it should be.  Secret things belong to the Lord, and future things are secret things.  When you try to figure out the future, you are grasping at things that are Mine.  This, like all forms of worry, is an act of rebellion: doubting My promises to care for you.  
Whenever you find yourself worrying about the future, repent and return to Me.  I will show you the next step forward, and the one after that, and the one after that.  Relax and enjoy the journey in My Presence, trusting Me to open up the way before you as you go." 

(Deuteronomy 29:29; Psalm 32:8)
