‘The babies in their mothers' womb want to live'

A couple of days ago I was in a chapel, praying, meditating and experiencing the Love of God in a personal way. It was a moment of peace, of knowing that God treasures me immensely. I was reflecting about life, of how wonderful it is, even when we face difficult moments in our life. In those precise difficult moments of life, God intervenes through His grace, to present us with His peace, His love, His care, His comfort… so as to experience His love in a personal way.

During this time of meditating, I also remembered about the babies in their mother’s womb. Would these mothers accept their baby in their womb and let them live, to experience life, to be loved and experience the wonderful life God prepared for them? Or, would certain mothers not want their babies to live and experience life?

The babies in their mothers’ womb would want to live. They are a gift not only to their mother and father… but to all humanity. They are a gift that God presents to humanity. When we love our neighbour we are loving Jesus. When a mother loves her baby in her womb and accepts the baby to be born, she is loving Jesus. When a mother does not accept a baby to be born… Jesus suffered for this situation on the cross.

Jesus called the children to go to Him… let us pray that all mothers accept their babies in their womb… and let them live and experience through God’s grace this wonderful life.
