Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

Today is the Feast of the Archangels…I know that I always felt solace during my healing in thinking of St Michale and how he would protect me in the battle of healing from my abortion. Whenever I felt particularly depressed and fighting my demons, whether they be my low self esteem, my self hate or lack of worth, my anger at others, or any of the million other issues surrounding my abortion experience that I had to work through, I would think of St Michael and find comfort.

This week is loaded with my favorite Saints…Therese, who is my namesake, and to whom my aunt prayed for  years for me, the guardian angels, St Francis and St Faustina.I often forget the humanness of the saints and what they had to suffer. They are such a great example of perservering and trusting in God.

Like them may we never waver in our trust in the love and mercy of God who came to call sinners…
