Miscarriage, when I heard these words, I was devastated. Our first hope of a child. My husband and I tried for almost a year to get pregnant again. My heart sank every time I checked the pregnancy test, and it did not show positive results. It was a constant reminder of the loss.

I had everything planned out, at the age of 28 I would have our first child and then four years later the second. My plan was destroyed, and I could not control the situation. I felt hopeless.

We did eventually have children. However, it was not in my timing, and it did not occur until I stopped trying to control the events.

The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. Psalm 33:10
