"We were pregnant and then no more," Bettina Carlos-Eduardo posted last night.
Married for a year now, Bettina has been living a blessed life with her family of three. They were supposed to welcome another member, but she had a miscarriage. "To all the mothers who have lost their children before they could even hold them, feel them, see them (in the flesh or ultrasound), may you too find peace in this: God’s purposes for the lives of our unborn children were fully fulfilled however long or short they were IN us. Their lives did not go to waste."
She reminds her readers that we all have a purpose here on earth, "And in the same way, YOU, if you are still breathing that means God’s purpose for you is not yet fulfilled-hence your very life and every breath."
"Lord, You were so gracious in giving to us and You are still good even in taking away. Thank you for the fresh hope and new joy You gave us even for a very short while. Thank you for the assurance that one day, in heaven, we will see and be with our child. Thank you for what You give when You take away. What we gain from this loss," she ends.
