I have felt that same way in front of the clinic, hardly believing that I mustered the gumption to be there. I am grateful that I'm not alone in that boat...

I run into many homeless people too, Anne, and I always think of the words my mother told me years ago, "Err on the side of mercy." Yes, that means I give money at times even if my mind questions.<br /><br />Yesterday as I was leaving the hospital (my dad was in but he's okay) I was in the elevator with a little girl holding a newborn baby. I thought this was the baby's sister but I was wondering where the mom was. The nurse with the girl started speaking and saying, "You realize you have your work cut out for you, don't you?" It was then I realized that this child (she looked about 9 but I'm guessing she was probably 12) WAS the mom. I was so proud that she didn't abort this baby (who was absolutely gorgeous by the way). I can't stop thinking and praying for her. Yes, her road will be tough but she still was wise enough to choose life at such a young age. I think she was from the children's home in our area because of the van that picked her up. I commented on how beautiful the baby was but I wish I had tried to strike up more of a conversation in case she needed help. It really touched my heart seeing her cradle this baby so close to her. I know you see stuff like this all the time because of your job but I'm not really used to seeing kids this young with babies.<br /><br />I'm sure you can guess who has a prayer warrior behind her now :)<br /><br />Welcome back, my friend!Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.com
