God has an amazing way of answering prayers in non-obvious ways. You are a mother because of your love, and I'm sure he will continue to bless your vocation as mother in ways you could never have imagined.

Thank you for thi...Here through Mark Shea's link... Thank you for this, so much. I am identifying in more than one way, as my husband and I are struggling with infertility - and as I, too, just lost a battle for the life of my friend's aborted child, just last week. Only my friend was never pro-life herself (she's an ex-Catholic, now neo-Pagan), and I did not have the courage you had to risk losing her friendship by confronting her, I only fought by prayer. <BR/><BR/>It has come to me, this year, that I can be for the mothers in my life as St. Therese was for the missionaries she wished to be like - I can be the invisible prayer support behind them, because I know that motherhood can be its own form of the Cross sometimes. But I love this idea that the child I fought for may, in a way, be mine in heaven. Something to take with me to Adoration tonight!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
