I was reading in my Bible a few minutes ago and came across a reading with the topic 'Infertility'. So of course I read it. Here is part of what it said:
"Infertility is defined by the medical community as the inability to achieve pregnancy after a year or more of regular sexual relations without contraception or the inability to carry repeated pregnancies to live birth. About 15 percent of all married couples today are infertile. Although there are numerous causes of infertility in women and men, medical advances have made it possible to diagnose and treat many of them. Still, some couples remain childless despite years of treatment. A couple's decision to manage the timing of conception, pursue fertility measures, or adopt a child is a responsibility they share before God, the Author of life. 'Childless' is not 'less' if that is God's perfect will for a couple."
So on those days when people try to give you unsolicited advice or make rude and hurtful comments about your choices in creating a family, remember that you only answer to one...God. And the best part is He is in control anyway! Stay strong. :)
