Dear Potential Parent,
We can’t give you the answer to that question – only God knows. What we can tell you is that other faithful people have faced the same desire to conceive and wondered just as you do when that special blessing would come. One of the greatest examples of this is Hannah. In 1 Samuel 1:4-8, we see how desperately Hannah wanted a child, but yet she waited. Hannah’s solution? She prayed fervently to God (1 Sam 1:9-10). God heard her prayer and eventually gave her that wonderful child she had prayed for (1 Sam 1:20). The power of prayer is incredible. We can’t tell you when you will be blessed with a child (after all, we aren't prophets), but we can tell you that if you pray to the Lord, He is faithful and will cause all to work together for good (Rom 8:28).
