We Thought Our Story Would Be Different: 3 Miscarriages and a Promise

This is one of the most personal stories I’ve ever shared. It starts with a moment I’ll never forget. My husband walking through the front door, completely shaken. He had just experienced something that would change everything. He felt God clearly promise that we would have a son. That same night, we found out we were pregnant. And then we experienced not one, but three back-to-back pregnancy losses. Through the heartbreak, God began to teach us something deeper: how to trust Him even when the story doesn’t make sense. This episode is about learning to hold onto His promise instead of our own plans, and trusting that even when God isn’t changing your circumstances, He is still working in you, through you, and for you. If you’re in a season of loss, waiting, or uncertainty, I hope this reminds you that your story isn’t over. God is still writing it.
