Before Embrace Grace, my life looked very different. I grew up in church, but as I got older, I struggled with my own battles and slowly lost myself. I found myself living a life that didn’t reflect how I was raised. Around that time, I met someone I truly believed was going to be the one. When I found out I was pregnant, I felt a rush of emotions, but deep down I knew this baby was a blessing. After being told by doctors that I might never be able to have children, I couldn’t ignore what this meant. But just weeks later, everything changed, and I found myself facing pregnancy alone, trying to process both the joy and the heartbreak at the same time.
Even in the middle of that, hearing my baby’s heartbeat reminded me that God had not left me. It gave me a sense of peace that everything was going to be okay. When I walked into Embrace Grace, I didn’t fully know what to expect, but I was met with so much love right away. The support I received from the leaders and the other moms made me feel less alone in a season where I needed it most. It quickly became something I looked forward to every week.
Through Embrace Grace, I was reminded that my baby is a blessing and that God is still writing my story. I am now just weeks away from meeting my son, and I couldn’t be more thankful. Thankful that God trusted me with him and thankful for the women who walked alongside me during this time. I can’t wait for my son to grow up knowing the same love and support that I experienced.
