If you’re praying about what family might look like for you . . . take heart in this:
Sometimes God answers a prayer with a person.
Throughout history, God has worked in many ways. Sometimes through nature. Sometimes through extraordinary scientific discovery. And sometimes through a beautiful intersection of faith, science, and compassionate neighbors who step in to help families grow.
When pregnancy is not possible, we do not see egg donation or surrogacy as replacing the work of Divine Creation. Instead, we see these paths as one of the many ways God moves in the story of humans, creating hope and life that wasn’t there before.
Is this God’s will?
Am I allowed to want this?
Can faith and reproductive technology really coexist?
And whether that looks like carrying a child, becoming a parent through egg donation and/or surrogacy, or walking alongside someone who is, it’s all choosing to play a role in the Creation story that’s already in progress.
