Sorry I've been MIA lately but I've just been so tired lately and nauseated that I don't feel like doing much of anything. I hope all you ladies are doing wonderful and wishing you all the very best! My fingers and toes are crossed for you ladies. I saw this post on another TTC board and thought it was really nice so I decided to post it here. If in any way this offends anyone I'm sorry it was not meant to offend anyone. :)

E-memo from GOD
Effective immediately, please be aware that there are changes YOU need to make in YOUR life. These changes need to be completed in order that I may fulfill My promises to you to grant you peace, joy and happiness in this life. I apologize for any inconvenience, but after all that I am doing, this seems very little to ask of you. I know, I already gave you the 10
Commandments. Keep them. But follow these guidelines, also.
1. QUIT WORRYING
Life has dealt you a blow and all you do is sit and worry. Have you
forgotten that I am here to take all your burdens and carry them for you? Or do you just enjoy fretting over every little thing that comes your way?
2. PUT IT ON THE LIST
Something needs done or taken care of. Put it on the list. No, not YOUR
list. Put it on MY to-do-list. Let ME be the one to take care of the
problem. I can't help you until you turn it over to Me. And although My
to-do-list is long, I am after all... God. I can take care of anything you
put into My hands. In fact, if the truth were ever really known, I take care of a lot of things for you that you never even realize.
3. TRUST ME
Once you've given your burdens to Me, quit trying to take them
back. Trust in Me. Have the faith that I will take care of all your needs,
your problems and your trials Problems with the kids? Put them on My list.
Problem with finances? Put it on My list. Problems with your emotional
roller coaster? For My sake, put it on My list. I want to help you. All you
have to do is ask.
4. LEAVE IT ALONE
Don't wake up one morning and say, "Well, I'm feeling much
stronger now, I think I can handle it from here." Why do you think you are
feeling stronger now? It's simple. You gave Me your burdens and I'm taking care of them. I also renew your strength and cover you in my peace. Don't you know that if I give you these problems back, you will be right back where you started? Leave them with Me and forget about them. Just let Me do my job.
5. TALK TO ME
I want you to forget a lot of things. Forget what was making
you crazy. Forget the worry and the fretting because you know I'm in
control. But there's one thing I pray you never forget. Please, don't forget
to talk to Me - OFTEN! I love YOU! I want to hear your voice. I want you to include Me in on the things going on in your life. I want to hear you talk about your friends and family. Prayer is simply you having a conversation with Me. I want to be your dearest friend.
6. HAVE FAITH
I see a lot of things from up here that you can't see from
where you are. Have faith in Me that I know what I'm doing. Trust Me; you wouldn't want the view from My eyes. I will continue to care for you, watch over you, and meet your needs. You only have to trust Me. Although I have a much bigger task than you, it seems as if you have so much trouble just doing your simple part. How hard can trust be?
7. SHARE
You were taught to share when you were only two years old. When did
you forget? That rule still applies. Share with those who are less fortunate than you. Share your joy with those who need encouragement. Share your laughter with those who haven't heard any in such a long time. Share your tears with those who have forgotten how to cry. Share your faith with those who have none.
8. BE PATIENT
I managed to fix it so in just one lifetime you could have so
many diverse experiences. You grow from a child to an adult, have children, change jobs many times, learn many trades, travel to so many places, meet thousands of people, and experience so much. How can you be so impatient then when it takes Me a little longer than you expect to handle something on My to-do-list? Trust in My timing, for My timing is perfect. Just because I created the entire universe in only six days, everyone thinks I should always rush, rush, rush.
9. BE KIND
Be kind to others, for I love them just as much as I love you.
They may not dress like you, or talk like you, or live the same way you do, but I still love you all. Please try to get along, for My sake. I created
each of you different in some way. It would be too boring if you were all
identical. Please, know I love each of your differences.
10. LOVE YOURSELF
As much as I love you, how can you not love yourself? You
were created by me for one reason only -- to be loved, and to love in
return. I am a God of Love. Love Me. Love your neighbors. But also love
yourself. It makes My heart ache when I see you so angry with yourself when things go wrong. You are very precious to me. Don't ever forget that!
With all My heart I love YOU!
God

You're very welcome! I hope that whatever is happening in your life right now that it will all work out. I wish you the very best! I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. I have thought about the same thing before why God does certain things but I know it is all for a reason. I lost my grandmother when I was 11 years old and we were very close and I felt myself angry for God taking her. I realized that it was in his plan and he decided that it was time to end her suffering. She had leukemia and went through the chemo and it made her very weak and sick. I didn't want her to suffer like that because seeing her go through that made my heart break even though I was young. I know now that I have a guardian angel always looking over me (and our little baby) and for that I'm grateful. I miss my grandmother very much but I know she is all better now and is happy being with God. I'm glad that I made you feel better and you take care!! :)

That was beautiful!! I think sometimes we do lose perspective. Like in this TTC, while we would like to have some control, we truly do not. When I start obsessing, or need a little check, I'm going to reread your post.
Thank you for sharing.

Hi Michelle,
Thank you SO much for this! It really came at a perfect time for me... I started this most recent cycle refusing to allow myself to obsess and had decided to turn it over to God and trust that He knows my heart and my desires, and that if He chooses to bless us with a baby that is wonderful...but if it is not His desire for my life, then I need to trust that there is a reason. I am, by nature, SUCH a worrier...and TTC stress has really increased my tendency to be that way...
Well...I was doing great until about a week ago...but then I started stressing out about all the "what ifs"...what if I don't get pregnant? What if I waited too late? What if I'm devastated again this month when AF arrives? What if I'm never a mom? What if...
I had just been thinking tonight that I need to relax...and work on truly trusting God with this....
and then you send this post!
So...again...thank you! It really brightened my evening!
Take care of yourself...and congrats again on your pregnancy.
