Excited is not the word for me. I am overjoyed to think that God will allow me to begin this new support group. A support group designed for women and couples who have, are, or will deal with the issues surrounding infertility and barrenness. When God showed me this about a year ago, I had no idea how I would even begin it. I just knew I had to trust Him. Would there be obstacles? Yes! Would there be doubt and fear? Yes! Would there be some misunderstandings? Yes! But would God be true to His word? YES!
This first group will begin on this Saturday, September 18 at the Looking Glass Restaurant in Clarksville, TN from 2-3:30 pm. I am amazed at the women who have contacted me from this area thanking me for taking an interest in their need (our need). However, this will not be your typical support group. Because one of the main goals of this group is to determine and encourage women about what they CAN do and not what they cannot.
Already, I have been approached by women in Nashville, TN to begin a similar group, and the talk is already on the table about groups beginning in 3 other major cities in the US before the end of 2011.
Let me tell you, we can do nothing on our own. It is only by God's grace and power that we are able to move forward in life. I am praying that this group will not only encourage those who are barren, but will also motivate them to go out in their communities and make a difference in the lives of others (children, women, and men alike).
To God be the glory for the things that He has done!
Until next time,
Remember, when life gives you lemons, make Lemon Icees!
Be blessed,
Lemon
