Finding Hope in Despair :: Kariss Farris [EP6]

Losing a baby to a miscarriage or late in the pregnancy is heartbreaking. Imagine experiencing that this type of loss multiple times. In this podcast episode, Kariss shares about her trust in God’s perfect plan for her life despite experiencing three miscarriages. God’s grace is evident in her story. Kariss Fariss is energetic, honest, and a fun-loving “girl-next-door.” As the eldest grandchild of Dr. Tony and Lois Evans, Kariss has been surrounded by the word of God her entire life.“I know that if this is not the time for me to be having a baby, and that God has something better in store….”All three of her miscarriages were devastating, but different. During one of her pregnancies, she went through an extreme anxiety feeling like she was going to die at childbirth. However, God brought her through it and taught her what she needed to learn from it.“I just had extreme anxiety and I’m usually not a person with anxiety… but for some reason I just had the feeling that I was going to die at childbirth.” Although Kariss didn’t go through an emotional loss due to her miscarriages, she did go through a period where she did not want to get pregnant, just wanted to bank on her own plans and thought the doors were closed on future pregnancies. But of course, God had different plans. Kariss had two children and is expecting a third rainbow child. This is what God had wanted for her and her family to go through before experiencing the fruitfulness of His promises. What we chat about:Praying through your pregnancy and proclaiming God’s promises over her lifeLook for what is trying to do and focus more on His plansTo be attached to Christ for all thingsConnect with Kariss:WEBSITE: http://www.karissfarris.com/INSTAGRAM: @karissfarrisFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/karissfarris/TWITTER: https://twitter.com/karissfarrisYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjVLDhlwJh8cIQtaIb8fRhQBooks Mentioned:Supernatural ChildbirthPraying Through Your PregnancyPraying for Your Unborn Child (Not Mentioned but Recommended)
