 - was looking for some comforting words for a friend.  we probably all have a friend or a friend of a friend for whom having a child seems the most elusive of heavenly gifts.

in my search for a faithful thing to say I came across these words of paul:
for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.  I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty.  I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.  I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
philippians 4:11-13

may the Lord grant you strength dear friend and within that, a contentment that is so resounding it can only be felt through Him who created us.
