LIFE! We have been graced to be able to leave the bidding to God, as He knows each and every one of us so much better than ourselves, & we know all faith in Him comes directly from Him. I still remember the day I found out I was pregnant with my first born daughter. I was filled with so many different emotions.. "Am I ready".... "Can I be a good mother?" ..."I am afraid"..... Yes I was afraid, even though I had been married for a few years. Me and My DH had decided that we had the leave the possibility of Children up to God and not practice any form of Birth control. It was an easy decision actually, I never had any interest to put chemicals in my body, or mess with any other barrier that is designed to tell God no where life is concerned. Trying to decide on our own on "how" many children and "when they come" seemed unnatural to us, and with out trust in God, each Child's arrival has been perfect because God has been put in control. My getting pregnant with my first child was a real wake up call to me. I knew of course that we "procreate" and that God "creates" in the making of life. I was always thought that God knows what we can handle. Just knowing at this time in my life that God knew what He was doing. He was telling me it was time to grow up. He was telling me that he is opening up a new life for me and my DH (Dear Husband). I can't imagine my life without my family. I am undeserving of all God has given to me. God had blessed me and my family beyond my being able to tell you all He gives to us. I personally have had my journey to travel, just like everyone else. Some don't live through what I have lived through. I recently learned through a good and Holy Priests Homily, that nothing happens by "luck" or chance. Everything good that happens (that some call luck) is by divine providence. You can see over and over, those who God has chosen to give blessings (being children out of wedlock and in wedlock) say you are "lucky" if you wanted this child, and "unlucky" if you don't want these gifts from God. It breaks my heart when I hear of a poor and scared and lonely teen that has had an abortion. I have a friend whom I lost contact with who had an abortion, and after I had my child, she fell to pieces when I talked about my baby, I still think about her and wonder how she is doing. I pray for her as I saw how much the abortion harmed her when she actually thought it was the answer to her fears of carrying this child to term. I know she is not the only woman who has been harmed by abortion. Abortion will not help you forget your child, every child you see will remind you of the child you never gave birth to. Some women have no idea what is happening to them and think the only option is to run away from this gift, this beautiful calling from God to be a Mother, even if the child was conceived in an unholy way (such as a brutal rape or incest). How can we let YOU know there are many other options besides aborting your child? Please visit our options page. Adoptions are a great option, but not the only option. Every option should be carry this child to term ever trusting in God, and given the chance to live. If we just trusted in God a little bit, as Jesus says if we have as much faith as a tiny mustard seed, we can move mountains. In Jesus parable of the Lilies of the field, he talks about how God provides for the birds of the air, and flowers of the field, and how much more we are then them, and He reassures us that our heavenly father will take care of us. Please follow some of the links I have below, and if I can please let me leave you with a quote from Our blessed mother when she spoke about her son Jesus to the waiters at the wedding feast at Cana: "Do whatever He (Jesus) tells you" |
