Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,
nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:38-39
I often hear women say, "Why has God abandoned me?" when they learn that another cycle did not result in pregnancy. They ask, "Doesn't God love me? Doesn't He care about me?"
Others say, "God has shown His favor," or "God has proved His love for me. He has not forgotten me," when they learn they are pregnant after infertility.
But Paul told us that NOTHING can separate us from the love of God. Even when we turn away from Him, He is still there, waiting with open arms to welcome us back.
I don't think I have a satisfactory explanation for why some people are blessed with children and some are not, but I know that it is not a reflection of His favor on us. I can find comfort in knowing that I don't have to earn blessings.
