Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

I decided to begin a series of reflections relating to healing in light of the fact that we will be approaching Pentecost…may we all pray for the graces to receive these gifts…please share you thoughts with me so I can share them with others..I can post them anonymously

Patience: often times in healing we
want to be better NOW, or we put time restraints on God. Am I allowing God to
heal me in His time instead of mine or am I dictating when and how I should be
healed? Do I trust that He knows what is best for me?

I struggle with this one in life. Patience is probably one of my worst virtues…I want things fixed now and done now…probably some of that comes with having been a single mom and so I had so much to do. I have gotten better over the years but definitely have to make an effort to keep myself fin check….they way that happens is spending time in prayer each day, going to mass etc…it reminds me of who is in charge and that I would not want it any other way…it also causes me to trust more and relax more…knowing His ways are always better than mine…
