Finding Love through the pain 

Sharing my abortion experience has been the hardest thing to do, right after the actual abortion itself. I’m coming to learn more and more about God’s love and understating why He is the forgiving God that He is. It has taken me a lot of time to forgive myself. My mentor asked me once “You are not greater than our Lord, He has forgiven you. He is merciful. You must forgive yourself. In not doing so, you are saying that you are greater than God.” 

I don’t know that at this time I have an answer for that. But I do know that I’ve finally accepted that forgiveness and that’s led to the beginning of mending my broken heart. 

In time, I will share the blessings God has given me and the beautiful experience I’ve had in how my healing began. But I will leave you with this for now:

“God is love.” – 1 John 4:8

So now, if God is love……

“He is patient and kind. He is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. He does not demand His own way. He is not irritable, and He keeps no record of being wronged. He does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. My Heavenly Father never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. He will last forever!” – 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

How amazing it has been to come to know God more through His word. 

Always hopeful and Faithful,

Lupe ❤️
