Needing Prayer

[mrs.Morrow]

They say God will not give you more then you can handle yet in seems everyday is a test. I have a two year old son and a 14 month old son i have allergies to birth control. I took a First response test and it showed up positive. I am not ready for another baby and feel i would not be able to handle it. My husband is happy I can not stop crying. He has always wanted a lot of children. If I am I will keep the baby (obviously) However I am going to the doctors on Monday to confirm. I pray I am not.
If I am it will be my last child witch brings me to the question: Is it wrong to get your tubes tied? I hope you will all pray for Gods will to be done and strength to deal with the out come of this situation.

Hi Mrs. Morrow,
I believe very much in "God only gives you what you can handle". I know sometimes things our life hands us can seem sooo overwhelming or that we may feel that there is no way that we can deal with or handle a certain situation. But I do believe that no matter what life hands us (even if it is something we think we may not want or may not be able to handle), if we hand it over to God, if we can get ourselves not to worry, and HAVE FAITH that God will give us the strength to handle the situation. Than he will be there for us and cary us through it.

Psalm 37:5
Commit everything you do to the lord, trust him, and he WILL help you.

I believe that there is a reason for every life God brings into this world. I also believe everychild is a blessing... although sometimes we may not realize just how much. I got pregnant with my first child when I was 15 yrs old. Yes I was very young and I was not married. But God did such a big thing in my life by blessing me with her. I really cant even imagine where my life would have taken me if I had not become a mother at such a young age. I believe he stopped me from going down alot of wrong roads and paths that I may have gotten myself into. just as much as I believe in "God only gives us what we can handle"... I also live by "Everything happens for a reason". My oldest daughter is now 10 yrs old. And God has also blessed my with my second daughter which is now 1 yr old. And to be very honest with you ... I too just like you really cant even fathum the thought of getting pregnant or having a 3rd child any time soon or even in the next few yrs. And I know I too would probably cry if it were to be so. The thought of it just seems sooo overwhelming. However, that is because ... that is not what I WANT right now... but if it were to be so .... I know I would have to stop and realize that God has a plan for my life/ for everyone of us. And everything he does is for a reason...and there is NOTHING that we cant handle if we just put our FAITH in God and BELIEVE that he will give us the strength and wisdom to carry out his plan for our life. I also want to share with you about a friend of mine that found out she was pregnant with her 5th child last year at the sametime I was pregnant. She felt just like you and she cried often. She had the same worries of "what if I cant handle this... what if I cant do this"... The baby will be 1 in Jan. and my friend is doing good... she has adapted very well... I watch her and how good she is with her kids... I sometimes cant help but think... "I could never"... but I believe Gods plan for her was to mother many children... and he has made her so that she can... even though she had doubted her ability to be able to handle it...
Here are some links to some information that you might find useful... I do hope there is atleast something that I have said here that will help you... I will pray for you... that God will give you the strength and courage that you need... either way your situation goes... I wish the best for you and your family and just remember... anything is possible in the name of Jesus!!

Psalm 55:22 Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved

John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.

John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

May God Bless you and your family!!! By the way... your children are beautiful!!!

sorry so long.... JESS
