Lord, Give Me Strength

Things have been really stressful for me lately. We have been trying to get pregnant for the last 6 or 7 months without any success. Well, we were finally successful! However, I had miscarriage about 2 weeks ago. It has had a toll on me and I haven't been handling the stress very well. We have decided to take a little brake before trying again. I don't know how long the brake will be but for now I'm not going to even think about it.


So to help with the stress I have started going to yoga class at our church. We have classes twice a week and I really enjoy them. I have NO coordination or balance at all and I'm not flexible but its still fun and relaxing for me. I now have my own yoga mat and made a bag to carry it in. All the ladies at the yoga class loved the bag I made and are asking me when I'm going to make some to sell : ).

It's amazing how the Lord blesses us in our times of need. I'm grateful for my visiting teacher who felt the need to drop by the day after my miscarriage, I'm grateful for the primary president I work with who noticed I was stressed and invited me to yoga class, I'm grateful for my friends who have given my support, I'm grateful for my family who have stood by me, but most importantly I'm grateful for the strength the Lord has given me. Now I just need the physical strength for yoga : )
