Please pray for my wife and I. ...

[DS1792]

Please pray for my wife and I. We've been struggling to conceive a child naturally. We've tried IUI with donors a few times but no success. Now my wife wans to try IVF because the fertilization success rate is higher. I know as Catholics, IVF is morally wrong and a mortal sin. But I didn't ask to be born with fertility issues. It's not like I was getting myself tested in my 20s to make sure everything was ok with my reproductive system. As far as I knew, everything was "working" just fine. I even had surgery back in 2016 to remove a block in my system that would help with infertility, but the surgery was unsuccessful. I was willing to go through the painful recovery if it resulted in a healthy, happy baby. So, here's the dilemma. According to the Church's teachings, IVF is wrong. I lost count on how many times my wife & I have been called "sinners" and I have never felt so ostracized in my life. Whatever happened to Jesus's commandment to love one another? But, she still wants to try. She wants to have the chance to carry a child and experience the miracle of birth. All we ever wanted to was to have a family and, God willingly, live long enough to enjoy grandchildren. So, if we end up going IVF, are we automatically destined to suffer eternal torture in Hell? What if I go to confession after our child is born but a priest refuses to absolve me? So much for love & forgiveness. This whole thing has definitely taken a toll on my marriage and my health. And I don't want to lose my wife or get divorced over this. If we do go through IVF, please pray for us to have a healthy, happy baby. that we can work hard and give our child the best life possible and raise him/her to know the love & teachings of our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ. And please ask God to forgive our choice and to please not punish us in eternal fire. Sorry for the rant, but I don't know where else to go or who to turn to. Thank you for reading this and God bless you!

Praying with and for you in Jesus.

We can do everything Jesus did and more! We can speak; sickness leave in Jesus! Be healed by Jesus stripes! I am healed by Jesus stripes! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

You can copy and paste this to pray every day and share...

There is nothing that happens for us that is bad. All things work for our good in Jesus! Look at everything as good!

Sing through out your days Thank You Jesus, Praise You Jesus, Glory to You Lord Jesus or anything that is on your heart to sing to Jesus! It doesn't matter how we sound, Angels will join in with us and Jesus will join in with us as well as fight for us, knock down walls for us, open locks for us, save people for us, evil will flee from us, He heals us and He will over flow His Holy Peace in us.

Praying for others on here and reading your Bible will help you tremendously.

I wanted to commit suicide once, I even came up with a plan. Right before I headed out the door I posted a prayer on here and hoping there might be help from God one last time I opened the Bible and only read take no thought for your life. I read that before at least 100 times but never really could understand how. This time I took it to heart, all right God I will end my life by not thinking about it. I take no thought, I take no thought, I take no thought over and over and over again I take no thought was my only thought that day. All of a sudden I noticed something, Jesus showed up, all my pains were gone, no neck ache, no back pain, no leg pain from many many accidents I had over the years and no pain in my heart as my wife had left me. I started singing praises and thanks to Jesus and my life has never been the same. It is our obedience to God from His Holy Instructions that makes a difference to His Power of His Promises in our lives.

Be a doer of Jesus friend, it really makes a difference! Thank You Lord Jesus!

Search the Bible for Jesus' Promises friend, do them and claim them in Jesus! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

Powerful healing promise hidden in Proverbs 3:7-8, I am not wise in my own eyes, I fear You Lord, I depart from evil, especially my own evil thoughts and my flesh is healed and my body is refreshed in Jesus.

Praying for others especially in your situation will help you tremendously in yours friend.

Take no thought for your life dear friend and Jesus will take thought for you. Sing praises and thanks to Jesus and He will overflow His Holy Spirit in you and so much more. He will fight for you and give you the desires of your heart.

Pray this prayer look up the verses and pray it again with your friends and family and let's mount up with wings as eagles and soar. Soar with me.

Let Us Pray: God I ask in Jesus' name, bless me to grow closer to You. I long for a more intimate relationship with You. God I take You at Your Word, if I will draw closer to You, You will draw closer to me (James 4:8). Show me how to draw closer to You. Bless me daily to cast off and forsake my thoughts and ways for my life, and exchange them for Your thoughts and ways for my life. Let me think Your thoughts and dream Your dreams for my life. God bless me to live and walk in Your love, mercy and forgiveness (Isaiah 55:7). I confess, I will take no thought for my life. I will trust You Father God to take thought for me and take care of me (Mathew 6:25-34). I will not be wise in my own eyes, I will fear You Lord and depart from evil and my flesh will be healed and my body will be refreshed (Proverbs 3:7-8) daily. Thank You Jesus for Your Promises! Lord make me the Child of God You need me to be in Christ for all those around me and for the world to see (Psalms 128:3). Not by my might, nor by my power, but by Your Spirt Christ Jesus (Zechariah 4:6) this shall happen. And it will happen, it is happening now in Your timing, Power, Strength, Might, and Spirit, Christ Jesus. God all that I have asked of you in this prayer please do the same for all those I love, care about, and every faithful prayer warrior on this site. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You Lord Jesus, my Savior and Lord for answering this prayer with a Yes and Amen.

Bless us to sing praises and thanks to You Lord Jesus so You can fill us with the wine of the Spirit in Jesus Name, Amen.

I have read your prayer and spent about an hour reading articles on both sides of the issue from a a Christian perspective. Yes some Christians believe under certain set of circumstances, IVF is permissible. Unfortunately I didn't see anything about the Catholics accepting the process. Very complex. I am not your judge or juror. Nothing but ❤ for both of you.
Heavenly Father I pray that You will guide this couple with their fertility issue. I first ask for a miracle and bless them with a child. I pray that all of their needs are met, in Jesus precious name, amen.
God loves you both!

Dear Brother J. Colin,

Thank you for your response. I really appreciate you taking the time to reach out! This infertility journey has definitely been a cross for us to bear. I can't tell you how many hate messages & comments I've received over the past two years from other "Christians" and "Catholics" who swore up & down that my wife & I are destined for Hell if we choose IVF, especially IVF with donors. To be honest, I haven't felt the love & welcome-ness from the Church since we started to have infertility issues. Yes, we can look into adoption as well, it's roughly the same price as IVF. But my wife really wants to experience motherhood. And since I can't provide her with a biological child, who am I to deny her the experience of carrying a child? And if this IVF works, yes, the child biologically won't be mind. But who says I couldn't love him/her unconditionally? I would love him/her as my own and work my tail off to give them the best life possible. So, what's so immoral about that?

I understand the Church's standings on destroying formed embryos. But if I'm correct, if the embryos aren't formed or they die on their own, then there's no life in them. Not that I'm condoning destroying life because I definitely don't condone that!! Believe me. I've prayed so much for a miracle birth. Good Lord would that solve all of our problems!!! But it looks like that's not going to happen. So yes, we're going the IVF route. I just hope & pray that God understands our decision and forgives us, even if He doesn't agree with it. I truly hope & pray He doesn't punish us to eternal torture for wanting to have a family and become grandparents.

Sorry for the rant. This has been a difficult two years and I'm physically, mentally, spiritually & emotionally exhausted. Thanks again for replying back to me. God bless you!
