I do not believe that infertility is caused by a lack of faith. I do not think that you can pray your way to a child. I do think that prayer is a necessary part of a person's spiritual life, but just because you pray for something doesn't mean that you will get it. I have never met a parent that gave their child everything they asked for. Ice cream for breakfast isn't a good idea (most of the time). God has a good plan for me. I don't want another child if it means abandoning His plan for my life. I do agree with and also believe that if God desires something to happen, it WILL happen, no matter what the state of my faith. Have I been treating God like a heavenly Santa Claus? If I do what I should, everything the way He wants me to, then He is obliged to give me what I want. I confess I have felt that way; that I deserve another child. The reality is, I don't deserve anything.
