I always dreamed of becoming a mother. So when my husband and I got married, I was anxious to start a family. However, my husband wasn't ready. In fact, I ended up praying for almost 8 years for him to agree to start a family! One day, out of the blue, he said, "I think it's time to start a family." I was beside myself with joy! Within a few months I was expecting our first baby!! Those were wonderful days filled with joy. However, after 5 months of pregnancy, we found out that our baby had died inside my womb. The doctor said I had some problems that could prevent me from ever being able to have children. He said when it was time, I would have a miscarriage. When that dreaded day came, my husband rushed me to the hospital. I was in labor and in much pain. I was in physical and deep emotional pain. I was devastated. When they got me in a hospital bed, the doctor came in and asked us if we wanted to see our baby. We said, "yes" and I began to cry. My husband and I were 400 miles away from all of our family, and we felt so alone. I began to ask God, "why?" "why, why, why, why???' Why would God allow me to pray all those years for a baby, then give me a baby, just to take it away? Then the nurse brought our baby and placed it in my hand. I could barely see it through all of my tears. Then the Lord spoke to me. He said, "my child just as this baby is in your hand, you are in My hand and you are loved forever there." 'TRUST ME!" With a calming peace, I handed our precious baby back to the nurse. I knew we would see our baby again one day in heaven.
It was from this experience in my life that I wrote the song, "In My Father's Hand." It was almost exactly one year later that Brett Allen Frans Jr. was born. Three years later we had Nathan William Frans. God gave us 2 precious boys!
In this life we will experience many trials. Sometimes our heart feels as though it will break. We can't understand. This is when God becomes so real in our lives. This is when we can smile through the tears because we know we are in His hands where we are safe forevermore! Praise be to God!
