I just wanted to pass along some encouragement. I was single, wanting very much to be a wife and mommy, until I was 35. The waiting is very hard in the moment, but focus on where God has you, and on what His desires are for you, and trust, trust, trust Him for the desires only He can fulfill. I have regret from those years of freedom that I wasted so much time and energy on what I didn't have, and wasn't as useful to God and His kingdom as I might otherwise have been. Faith is believing in the unseen, right? You have this chance to grow in faith by letting go of the anxieties and REALLY trusting God, so go for it. :-) Blessings, MaryBeth I admire your photographs and was checking them out (I’m a friend of Emily Rowe) and saw this blog.
