Fight the Good Fight of Faith

Today, we step out in faith again and we press forward in the hope that our second “magnum opus” is what’s waiting around the corner for us. SO much has changed and SO much has happened since we put our selves out there like this 4 years ago. There has been so much loss and so much pain, but there has also been unimaginable joy and SO many answered prayers. God has already “summoned our army” and Baby Womack #2 already has a voice on this side of Heaven. We have been blown away once again by all of your love and support. Your words and your gifts, your kindness and your prayers. While this is a position I hoped we wouldn’t find ourselves in for a second time, I know that each of our steps is already laid out...we simply have to continue forward...one carefully planned step at a time. I’m praying for that road full of green lights again like we had with Greysen’s IVF process...

So the time has come. I know from experience that our arrival at this point has a greater purpose beyond ourselves. It’s  bigger than me and Jonathan and Greysen. It’s bigger than our infertility struggles. It’s part of our tapestry. I feel confident that when this part of the mural He is painting of my life is finished, we will stand back and  see it with eyes of pure awe. It feels a bit like “the trenches” right now, but we are going to fight the good fight of faith in this. I teetered back and forth when deciding whether or not to share our journey this second time around. IVF is scary, but it’s MORE scary when you put it out there and so many people are hoping for a miracle right alongside you. Nonetheless, we hope that you’ll do just that. We pray you will HOPE alongside us, pray with us and for us, look ahead with POSITIVITY and anticipation for what God is going to do. We hope and pray and plead that the end of this story is the expansion of our little family. But we know that no mater what happens, God will be glorified. His plan will unfold as we walk this road and it will be spectacular...

So here we go again folks. Womack’s Thinking Positive. Hope with us, pray with us, fight the good fight of faith with us. We’re inviting you to take a journey with us that promises to be harrowing and exciting and difficult and ultimately MIRACULOUS.  Take the trip with us y’all...
