IVF and Christianity: Is it playing God or just helping live out what is destined by him?

 Many Christian people have a huge issue with any form of fertilization that is not natural.  One of the biggest things is the IVF method Or In vitro Fertilization. In vitro fertilization has helped many childless people around the world have babies and finally be able to complete their happy families. A lot of women go through so much during this process but the fact they will have a tiny human makes it all the better.  
A Christians point of view on the whole thing is that its murder, your trying to play god which is a sin and destroying the body god gave you to try to have a baby goes against his beliefs. Your destroying many lives to try to create one.
1 Corinthians 3:16-18 ...your body is a temple of the holy spirit who is in you, whom you have received from god? You are not your own…. Glorify good with your body.  This verse in itself should explain a lot. Women put their body through so much during the process if In vitro fertilization. They go through sticking themselves with needles around the clock practically making themselves sick to try to make their body viable to host a baby that was created through science.
  In vitro kills thousands of babies during the whole processes. They freeze he sperm then thaw I which results in countless little babies gone. out of 25 babies that are actually conceived 24 die.  If the woman becomes pregnant with more than one baby she will have the option of aborting the others which most women do. They also have the option of aborting their babies if it may seem to have a health issue. Children should be produced “naturally” through sex the way God intended it to be, not in a petri dish inside of some lab. But parents committed to living out a true and Christian meaning in their marriage will want to avoid treating children like products in the way they seek to be open to the gift of new life.  
              IVF simply and solely does what we as humans can’t do to create the best circumstances for  the infertile couple to conceive and have a child. God does the rest.” Christian people that go through the IVF treatment thoughts on how it isn’t trying to play god is that people feel as though In vitro was mad by God. These scientists created this through him to help non-fertile couples get the child that they deserve. He helped someone think of this to help out mankind. Most women who conceive a baby through IVF think of their child as God’s gift. So therefore, it is in no way going against go or trying to be god in any way at all.                                                                                                                                                        
   You cannot leave something like this up to God and expect someone who’s heart that is yearning for a baby to understand. She used a lot of example on how if someone were to get injured in some way would we neglect to call for help and use the excuse of leaving it up to God and his destiny for what is supposed to happen. which, in my eyes was a very well worded opinion. Christians always say that things are Gods destiny but, do we not interfere with that destiny when we decide to take a dying family member to the hospital to get saved or put someone through chemo for the cancer they have do we? No so why should that be any different?
