"As each bird flaps its wings, it creates uplift for the bird following. In a V formation, the whole flock adds at least 71% more flying range than if each bird flew alone. Have you ever wondered why migrating geese fly in a V formation? As with most animal behavior, God had a good reason for including that in their instincts. Whenever a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of trying to fly alone…and quickly get back into formation. Geese in the rear of the formation honk to encourage those up front to up their speed. It is important that our honking from behind” be encouraging. Otherwise it’s just- well- honking. When a goose gets sick or wounded, two other geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help and provide protection. They stay with the unhealthy member of the flock until it is either able to fly again or dies. "
"...“Ask the beasts, and they will teach you; and the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you; and the fish of the sea will explain to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?” JOB 12:7-9
I just had an upifany, to share with my blog readers:
God does work in mysterious ways. Don’t take time to question God, just go with it. I believe that there is a time and reason for everything. Things happen for a reason, and all we could do is adjust.We should be aware that our choices are not really our choice. God has already chosen for us... how the outcome will turn out. He has the greater plan for us all.
Andrew and I "CHOOSE" to get pregnant, God thought differently. It was not the right time, so I miscarried, maybe if the baby progressed further to term there would have still been something wrong with the baby? This was Gods way of choosing for us. This particular pregnancy was not the right time for us...? We will try agian and maybe God will let us keep the pregnancy the next time, and we will have a baby soon. God will choose for us when the time is right, and it will fit into his greater plan. When I was prego I was one of the geese flying in the V formation, with support from people around me. Then I misscarried and flew down to the pond to heal, my fellow geese are there for me while I heal and try agian. Then I will be prego agian and rejoin the V formation, maybe starting out towards the back and pick up my strength with the support of other geese to move towards the front of the V. When I get myself to the very front, it will be 9 months later and I will have God on my side, watching over me as I give birth to a healthy little baby. A baby for Andrew and I to raise as our own little geese to be proud of and a part of our family.
Why do some people have sex just one time and become pregnant, only to not want the baby and either give it up for adoption or even abort it? Why do loving couples who want to become loving parents choose to have a baby and try for a while to become pregnant only to loose the baby in a miscarrage? Where is the fairness in this? Some people don't choose to become pregnant and they call it "knocked up" We want to choose to be pregnant and can't (so far).
A bun in the oven, knocked up, there is a beach ball under your shirt!, Expecting, prego, preggy, pregnant, 9 months rag free, all of these phrases mean the same thing, and I want it so bad!
God, please choose me next, we want to have the stork bring us a baby, to raise a family of our own.

Oh Martiel--
Hang in there... That's all I can say-- just do your best and hang in there. That and be appreciative (I know you will be) when it does happen! I know how unfair it seems now when other people so easily conceive and everything is perfect-- boy, I HAVE BEEN THERE!!
Please let me know if you want to chat-- I have heard/felt it all on this rollercoaster to a family.
