The Beauty of Our Stories

I had a great conversation with a wonderful friend of mine tonight. She too is dealing with infertility. Our stories are similar in many ways - tried for months with no success, no success on clomid, and we both deal with anovulation. Our other good friend is also dealing with a form of infertility - miscarriages. We were talking about how God leads differently in each story, and that each one is beautiful. God is leading them to adoption. God is leading us to seek treatment. God is leading our other dear friend to wait to try again when He says so. I think that it is so incredible that we don't have sit and tell each other, "you should do this" or "you should do what I did," but that we can recognize that we each have our own individual journeys and that God speaks to us all and is guiding us down our paths. And it is beautiful to see people listening to and following God. In all of our situations, we have prayerfully sought after God's guidance and wisdom, and have made decisions purely based on that. And we are able to spur each other on and be a source of strength for each other. 
 There is so much beauty in that!
