I ran across an article today on the Family Life website written by a dad about the choices we can make after we experience the loss of a child. Very compelling, challenging, and comforting. Honest about the pain, while not giving in to bitterness. Read it here: "After a Failed Pregnancy: Our Road to Better Days." Please leave a comment and let me know if it ministered to you.

Ever wonder how a God can be a "good" father when bad things happen to us? I don't have the ultimate answer, but I share some thoughts about it in this month's edition of "Glory and Strength." God is So Good
“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” Luke 11:11-13 May and June are the months to honor parents. In May, we celebrate mothers, and in June, it is the fathers’ turn. They seem like innocent celebrations, but both can be terribly difficult for people, too. First, there are many men and women for whom parenthood is elusive.

Couples struggling with fertility issues often find these holidays to be difficult at best, excruciatingly heart-wrenching at worst...
