Day 10- Lead Me

Its day 10 of blogging and day 47 of my cycle. The pain has gotten a little worse. I think my body is confused. But I am doing alright.

This post isn't going to be about the pain though. It is going to be about support. Having support when you are going through anything in life is crucial. Infertility is no different. I have a great support system and I am so thankful. One of the main people supporting me is my husband Ryan. Yesterday we celebrated our four year wedding anniversary. He is great. I know he doesn't fully understand what is going on with my body and my emotions, but he tries. He listens when I am upset and holds me when I cry. Most of my doctor appointments he has gone with me and held my hand. I am blessed to have him.

One of our favorite songs right now is Lead Me by Sanctus Real. The songs is about a wife asking her husband to lead her and about the man asking God to lead him. It is a beautiful song and so true. I look to God and to Ryan to lead me. Below are the lyrics. Today I hope everyone reading this has support and if they don't that they find someone to help them. Solomon writes in Ecclesiastes 4:12 "Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." May God lead us as we try to lead and support others.

Lead Me
By Sanctus Real
"I look around and see my wonderful life
Almost perfect from the outside
In picture frames I see my beautiful wife
Always smiling
But on the inside, I can hear her saying...

“Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, what about us?

Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone”

I see their faces, look in their innocent eyes
They're just children from the outside
I'm working hard, I tell myself they'll be fine
They're independent
But on the inside, I can hear them saying...

“Lead me with strong hands
Stand up when I can't
[- From :http://www.elyrics.net/read/s/sanctus-real-lyrics/lead-me-lyrics.html -]
Don't leave me hungry for love
Chasing dreams, but what about us?

Show me you're willing to fight
That I'm still the love of your life
I know we call this our home
But I still feel alone”

So Father, give me the strength
To be everything I'm called to be
Oh, Father, show me the way
To lead them
Won't You lead me?

To lead them with strong hands
To stand up when they can't
Don't want to leave them hungry for love,
Chasing things that I could give up

I'll show them I'm willing to fight
And give them the best of my life
So we can call this our home
Lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone

Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone"
