3rd Child

My story is quite simple
My husband and I had been faithfully  
Correctly using birth control for almost 13 years 
We’d forgotten it only once

 Resulting in the birth of our second child in 2005 
However, in spite of proper use
Birth control failed again in 2015
After learning I was pregnant for the 3rd time

My husband and I sat down to discuss our options 
What a new child would mean for our family 
Money was tight, our marriage was struggling, and at nearly 40 
I didn’t feel that I could handle another pregnancy and childbirth 

At the end of our discussion 
My husband said,
 “We’ve never considered this before, but do you want this child?” 
I replied simply, “No.” 

He said he didn’t either, but that he’d support any decision I made.
At the end of our discussion


Even though it was his child
He recognized that the decision was ultimately mine
Living in Nevada, we didn’t have to deal with unreasonable restrictions 
There were no protesters to meet us at the clinic 

The only obstacle we faced 
No providers in the area took my insurance
We had to pay the $500 out of pocket 
I made the appointment for that Thursday

So that I wouldn’t miss any work
Less than a week after discovering I was pregnant
At the clinic
 I received a trans-l ultrasound to verify how far along I was: 4 weeks. 

The blastocyst was about the size of a sesame seed
Exactly what it looked like 
At such an early stage
A medical abortion was my only option 

I took the first pill at the clinic 
Was told most women don’t start bleeding heavily 
Until after taking the second pill the next day
I’m not most women 

Started bleeding heavily enough 
I had to leave work early Friday 
The pain didn’t start until after I took the second pill
It hurt, but was no worse than cramps amplified by food poisoning

I was glad for the pain medication the doctor had prescribed me
Then, it was over
I bled for about 3 weeks and then everything returned to normal. 
I admit some initial doubt that we were making the correct decision

Was willing to accept that doubt 
After about a year, that doubt has disappeared 
During the process
I didn’t feel alone because my husband was right there with me

Love Is Over and Over

Eternal God was with us
Is with us
Over and over
His love is
Providing for us
Watching us
Forgiving us
Over and over
His love is
In every sense
An undying love
If we believe in this love
It will save us from our sins
Bring us to everlasting life
Heal us from our brokenness
And hardness of heart

Propagate It

Reverence?
Eternal God, Mother Mary, Father Christ
Measured 
How lovingly you respond to Eternal God

People say they pay reverence, Eternal God 
Father Christ, Mother Mary
Really?
It is written

Written what? 
“Peace in Christ”
Incomplete
Where is “Father” Christ?

Don't have any clue
Talking about
Hypocrite, harsh word
People harsh to Father Christ


Fact that He is the Highest Priest
Why copy?
Copy “For the righteous”
He is Eternal God, “Father” Christ, Mother Mary

People boast, brag 
Reverence to Father Christ
Believe in Him
Yet, no “Father” Christ

He’s hurting
Help me propagate
We’ll run over Church
Nothing is written

About reverence
No one knows
Except us
He wants us to propagate it

-spoon-Feed Them-

What is spoon-feed?
Feeding our thoughts
Sincerity, Honesty and Truth
Called Constructive Criticism 

Striving to be at our best
Helping because of love
Care
Understanding

Motivated to Construct
Mistakes, Errors, Faults
It is okay
We are not perfect

Why use hell
Instead of Condemned?
Hell is Bulls Eye
Exact place when condemned

Courage

Courage animates us
Brings us to life
     Makes everything possible
Yet, Courage is the rarest quality in human person

Vindication

Also believe that there is but one Father in Heaven
Why do we call our Catholic priest, father
Is it not true that Jesus Christ is also a Priest
A Catholics Eternal High Priest, He is

Spoke to my mother
Said I cannot force people
I'm not forcing
What I'm saying is a fact

Called Jesus Christ, Father Christ
Chose Christ because Christ means Messiah
My dear Catholics please help me
Need vindication for this

Spiritual Director is Father Piers
Have a hard time understanding
My mother as well
What or why is it hard to understand

Poets said it's not in the bible
I know it is not
But it is a fact
Jesus Christ is also a Catholic Priest

Lust

Lord Eternal God
Please forgive me if I have Lust or excessive desire for sinful pleasures
Forbidden by the 6th Commandment
Distaste of holy things, perverted conscience
Hatred of Eternal God and complete loss of faith
Please give me Chastity
the behavior of man or woman that is accepted from the moral standards
Guidelines of our culture
It is the opposite of lust
Appreciate Your understanding.
