After at least three attempts at in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, which have all failed, Cora Coleman, daughter of Bishop T.D. Jakes, Pastor of the Potters House, Dallas, Texas, has decided that she will accept the will of the Lord and continue the dream of having children by becoming a foster mother.
The disappointed, but still faithful, 26-year old Christian woman is now encouraging others who are desperate to have a child of their own on her online journal at FertilityFaith.com. She writes of her disappointment in the failure of her IVF treatment, but her continued faith in God to do what is best for her in life...
Coleman, who suffers from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), was also diagnosed as being infertile three years ago, so one of the only options open to her to have that much desired offspring was IVF. However, now those hopes have been shattered, the brave young woman, who discovered that she had PCOS at the tender age of 22, hopes to foster children to fulfill her and her spouse, Richard Brandon's, dreams.
Jakes' daughter, who along with her husband adopted a little girl called Amauri in March this year, writes in her online journal that she hopes her journey through infertility will help others who read her story. She adds, "I pray this is a safe place where you too can share your struggles with infertility, and life issues. You are not alone. I am holding your hand and so is God."
Coleman, who is also the director of the children's ministry at Potters House Church says that she is determined that her ministry will help her overcome the disappointment of being unable to become pregnant. She adds that she has resigned herself to the fact that it is not God's will for her to become pregnant at this time and now is the time to surrender to His will and not follow her own desires.
However, Coleman and her husband have not given up hope completely that God will give them a child of their own someday, when He decides that the time is right.
Oh Lord, hear her cry one more time and do with her as you did to Sarah in the olden days in Jesus name!
