"The culminating point of Mary's trials of faith was her presence at the foot of the Cross. It was there that she witnessed how her Son 'spurned and avoided by men,/a man of suffering' (Is 53:3), was agonizing on the Cross. She, who believed against all hope, manifested the heroism of obedience in faith."
(In the Arms of Mary, pg. 134)
"who believed against all hope, manifested the heroism of obedience in faith."
In healing from abortion I believe that is what we need to do..."believe against all hope"
It is easy to despair. To allow feelings of hopelessness overwhelm us when we are having a hard day. To focus on ourselves and our pain instead of Christ and the fact that He died on the cross for our sin.
When you are sinking into despair because of your"feelings", ask Mary to help you to "believe against all hope", as she did at the foot of the cross when all looked lost. Never forget the Resurrection followed the crucifixion..a rising to new life...
