There is so much to say about this video and healing from abortion.
So many of us spend our lives running from the reality and deep hurt we have experienced, the trauma. We try to "forget about it", to "move on", to live life as if it had never happened but that is impossible. Our children are dead and there is no way we will ever forget that.
We run from our brokenness thinking we have be be perfect to go to God and yet the opposite is true. We need to go to Him in our brokenness, to embrace our brokeness knowing He loves us right where we are.
Many of us struggle with forgiveness of others and ourselves in this journey.
It is so important to look at our experience of abortion, to learn our "connectors" so we understand what is happening to us in the present moment. To accept our wounds at the foot of the cross knowing Jesus is there waiting for us .
The journey is not easy and you have to want it, but it is so worth it. To work through the things that keep us from Gods love and communion with Him...He waits for us. It is the journey to Canaan and He and Mary will be with us every step of the way.
This is such a beautiful video by Father Mike Schmitz and Sr Miram James Heidland, SOLT
