I've been trying to get everything back on track for TTC, since I pretty much fell off during the wait due to the fibroids. Now that we're all set to go in September, I'm trying to work on getting my life back together. I had done a good job of exercising this summer - was up to 15+ miles running weekly, until the last two weeks (been doing a lot of manual labor during the day at work, and could not fathom getting up early to run beforehand ...although I'm committed to doing so this upcoming week). But everything else was a bit of a mess.
So I've been cooking this weekend, reading, cleaning, running, and generally taking better care of myself. This afternoon, I went out to the pool to get a little sun (and Vitamin D!). I was only out for about an hour before the clouds moved in and the wind picked up - think a storm is coming! As I was walking back to my apartment, I passed through one of the courtyards. There was a woman sitting a table, reading. She looked up as I passed and we both smiled and said hello.
Just as I reached the far side of the courtyard, she called out to me ("Miss!"). I turned around, thinking that maybe I had dropped something. I walked back over to her, and she said that she had a scripture : "For with God, nothing shall be impossible." She said that as I passed, the scripture just came to her, and she wanted to share.
Wow! I thanked her and told her that it was "right on time!"
When I got back to my apartment, I looked up the verse (I am very familiar with it, but could not recall its context). The scripture comes from when the angel Gabriel came to Mary to tell her that she was going to have a child, and that her cousin Elizabeth would have a child in her old age.
Wow, again.
I'm going to continue to pray and continue to get my life in order.
I feel blessed to have experienced that brief moment today that demonstrates that He is watching and overseeing this process, even when I feel alone.
