Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

In spite of the fact that we feel remorse from our
abortions, many us, like the children of Israel in today’s reading, complain against the LORD, when it comes
to our healing.

 If things are not going as fast as we would like, or if we
still have moments of despair or struggle we are quick to think that God is not
there for us. We have no patience, like the Israelite's, even though God has
begun His work in us. When things are not going the way we think they should
be, we grumble and think He has left us, instead of trusting in His love for
us. We want healing HERE & NOW!

 In the gospel Jesus makes a starling statement to the
Pharisees , “For if you do not believe
that I AM, you will die in your sins”.

 A reminder that they will die, not because he cannot or
would not save them, but because we did not believe in Him!

 Today let us ask God to help us in our impatience. To remind
us always that God is in charge and that we need to trust Him who is the I am.
