When life doesn’t go as planned, how do we hold onto hope? In this tender episode of The Heart Rest Podcast, Crystal Storms shares her personal journey through infertility and unmet expectations—and how God met her in the ache. You’ll be encouraged to bring your disappointments to the Lord, trace His faithfulness in hindsight, and trust that even unanswered prayers can be used for His glory.

Whether you're navigating singleness, infertility, grief, or a season that simply looks different than what you imagined, this episode offers truth, comfort, and the reminder that God is always working—even when the story doesn't unfold the way we hoped.

💬 What You’ll Learn:

  • How to surrender disappointment and honestly pray through pain
  • Why seeing God’s faithfulness in hindsight can strengthen present hope
  • How to embrace your “set-apartness” and find fruitfulness in unexpected ways
  • Encouragement for women without children on Mother’s Day and beyond
  • Biblical insight on trusting God’s better plan

🕊 Key Scriptures:

  • John 15:8 – “My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit…”
  • 1 Corinthians 7:34-35 – “That you may live in a right way in undivided devotion to the Lord”
