After an infertility journey and fixing up a new house, this soon-to-be mom entered the biggest struggle of her life. Her new life's headline read, 'Husband Leaves Pregnant Wife.' See what her community did to bless her.
"Did someone open a card under his name? The next day, the day I called that hotel room and heard his voice, his voice 1,000 miles away, and then heard her voice in the background, that was the day I broke."
"I question my own motives in writing this. Is it sordid? Is it to gain sympathy? Is it to avoid criticism or worse, to benefit from the publicity criticism brings? Lord, I hope not."
"I used to think it was a coincidence that I chose to break into the church that night, but now I call it confirmation that God is real, and He answers prayers."
"A recent story emerged in the media about Chick-fil-A stopping donations to anti-LGBTQ Christian charities, and like the good, obedient children we are, we slurped up what the angry masses were serving. How dare Chick-fil-A back down from their Godly principles for the sake of money?!"
“This adoration can transform sporadic and stammering prayers into a constant and characteristic attitude of reverence and dependence on a higher power.”
"You cannot save yourself. Your family cannot save you, nor your friends. They will let you down. Remember that the next time you lash out. No one can fix you, and you can’t fix anyone. Only Jesus."
People would say things they thought were comforting like, “Your momma is looking down on y’all smiling,” but I would find no comfort there. Not really. I just couldn’t believe that such a thing was so.
