How are you all are doing with Mothers Day ? I know that many of you may be suffering. Not an easy time, and a huge abortion connector.
Mother’s Day brings out all the missing aspects of our children, the very nurturing we are created to bring as the person who is suppose to bring them life.
So, why then do I want to wish all our post abortive moms (yes you heard me, you are still moms), a Happy Mother’s Day? No, I am not telling you to be happy that you had an abortion and you may be asking," How can I ever be happy , when I feel so totally miserable?"
I am going to tell you how.
Because you are still a mom
Because you child is “living with the Lord” as it says in the Gospel of Life #99
Because your child desires your healing
Because your child loves and forgives you
Because you love your child
Because God desires your healing and longs to give it to you
Because one day you will be with your child in heaven
Because hope and healing are possible with God
This Mother’s Day acknowledge your feelings but also reclaim your child/children.. and thank God for His Mercy and many gifts by embracing your motherhood.
From The Gospel of Life:
“I would now like to say a special word to women who have had an abortion. The Church is aware of the many factors which may have influenced your decision, and she does not doubt that in many cases it was a painful and even shattering decision. The wound in your heart may not yet have healed. Certainly what happened was and remains terribly wrong. But do not give in to discouragement and do not lose hope. Try rather to understand what happened and face it honestly. If you have not already done so, give yourselves over with humility and trust to repentance. The Father of mercies is ready to give you his forgiveness and his peace in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. To the same Father and his mercy you can with sure hope entrust your child. With the friendly and expert help and advice of other people, and as a result of your own painful experience, you can be among the most eloquent defenders of everyone's right to life. Through your commitment to life, whether by accepting the birth of other children or by welcoming and caring for those most in need of someone to be close to them, you will become promoters of a new way of looking at human life.” John Paul II
Happy Mother's Day !
