Hope Ministry
A diagnosis of infertility and experiencing the challenges of fertility often leads to a
heart-wrenching period in a couple's relationship.  The emotional roller coaster ride of
infertility is simply exhausting, stressful and heartbreaking .  I have been down that
lane myself, and I can say that I feel your pain, disappointment and the anxiety. No
one understands unless they have been through it themselves.  I want you to know
that it was God who thought up about having babies and having a family-, so please
don't loose hope.  You have the Lord the Creator of all things on your side ~

Where do I start?
The doctors have told you that you are unable to have children, or have you not be
diagnosed and having difficulty conceiving, have polistic ovaries…as much as we
appreciate doctors and medical science they are not our answer, source or our final
authority.  Understand the Will of God in regards to having children.  It was His idea;
He thought about children.  He ordered them in the Garden of Eden.

Make up your mind and be determined in your hearts that you will have a baby.  
Then start praying that God would hear and answer because it is His will.  God will
meet you at your level of faith – what ever the level is.  Do you have an unsaved
husband?  Share your thoughts, faith and prayers with him and you will see God
move in him as you continue to uphold his salvation in your prayers.  Believe that
prayer changes things.

No longer think the way the world thinks if you want to see results, but meditate on
the promise and provision that have been given to us as a born again believers. We
have to find out what God thinks on my subjects and begin to think and talk the way
He does.
Roman 12:2 says “Do not confirm any longer to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and
approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

Become a thermostat and not a thermometer.  Be authentic.  Do not be changed to fit
into the environment, people group or situation but change the environment you are
placed in.
10 ways to destroy the disappointments:
1.        Write down five things you have to be thankful for (i.e. a special husband who understands, a friend to talk with, a
mother who cares, etc.)  Look up in the back of your Bible all the verses on thankful and/or thankfulness and read them out
loud. (Psalm 100)  

2.        Praise the Lord that He made you very special and He has the best plans for your life (Psalm 139:13-14).

3.        Take your thoughts captive.  This means guard where you allow your thoughts to take you & what path you will allow
them to go down.  This can be very productive or very damaging. (Romans 12:1-2)

4.        Memorize some of the verses listed in this booklet.  The Bible tells us to "think on these things."  
(Philippians 4:8)

5.        Take a walk daily in the sunshine.  Exercise releases frustration and tension.  Do some type of workout around other
people.  Join a gym and participate in some exercise classes. (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)

6.        Eat healthy.  God tells us to glorify Him with our bodies. When you eat a lot of sugar you have really high highs and low
lows.  Be careful with what you eat. (1 Corinthians 10-31)  

7.        Take time for others.  Do something for someone else.  Take someone who is hurting a meal even if you are hurting or
discouraged yourself. (Galations 6:2)

8.        Go on a mini-vacation with a dear friend or your husband.  Find a place that you enjoy going (i.e Phillip Island, Geelong,
Great Ocean Road, the mountains or beach, etc.) to relax when you can take a few days off.
(Psalm 37:4-5)

9.        Find a fun hobby.  Collect something with a friend or take a class in knitting or crocheting.  
(1 Thessalonians 4:11)

10.        Read a Christian book or devotional along with your Bible.
