Even when the skies are gray

I did not write a blog yesterday because it was so sad for me. Two young women came in and refused to acknowledge the humanity of their children. The right of their children to life. Refused to love. I was so disheartened.

And then today, I went to Brooklyn and witnessed prenatal care for expectant mothers. God is GOOD! It was absolutely amazing to see so many women lovingly welcoming the changes in their bodies to accommodate their lovely children. I witnessed the miracle of holding hands for the first time. Mother placed her hands over her womb (while a sonogram technician provided a picture of the whole thing) and asked her child to “Hold Mommy’s hand.” Little child did as was bidden, raising their hands to the inside of the uterus in order to hold Momma’s hand. It was beautiful. It was astonishing. It was God.
