7 Stages Of Grief After MiscarriageНамуна
As little girls, many of us dreamed about being a Mama someday. When I was younger, I never once considered that I would struggle with infertility or that I would have multiple miscarriages. That idea never once crossed my mind.
God so graciously chose women to be the vessel in which He brings life into our world. Women were given this outrageously amazing gift, and when I found out I was not going to be able to do this, my entire world came crashing down around me.
Miscarriage almost always comes as a massive shock to women. Most women pray it won’t happen to them, but when it does, it will take your breath away and leave you sobbing on your hands and knees in disbelief and shock. I sat on my bathroom floor praying and crying that the doctor was wrong, begging God that it was a mistake and my baby was not already gone.
I know that nothing in all of creation ever comes as a surprise to God. Now, we may not ever find out why we were the ones chosen to endure this heartache, but there is comfort in knowing that God knows what He is doing.
It is imperative that we know and believe that God is good. He can be trusted and He always knows what He is doing, even when it doesn’t make sense to us. I know firsthand how hard it will be to believe this after such a painful loss, but I am praying you will begin to believe this truth. God will never leave you and He wants you to call out to Him when you are hurting.
Our enemy Satan is going to try and worm his way into your thoughts and heart, working overtime to pull you away from God during your darkest hour. You see, our enemy Satan knows how dangerous it is when a woman trusts in God in the midst of such a painful loss.
When a woman is hurting but still has faith and trust in her God, she is very powerful against our enemy. Our enemy only wants to steal, kill and destroy; Jesus came to give us life, and have it to the full! (John 10:10)
