You Don’t Need To Understand.
I would like to share this post written by Bo Sanchez.
We Lost Our Baby
Three days ago, Marowe lost her baby.
She was 7 weeks pregnant.
And it was her third miscarriage.
We have three kids in Heaven: Angel, Benjamin, and now, Mikki.
But for the first time, I was able to go into the operating room. I sat in the corner, praying for Marowe. After a few minutes, Dr. Sheila, our friend and Marowe’s OB-Gyne, walked to my corner. She opened her gloved hand and presented to me a tiny red blob. “This is the embryonic sac,” she said.
It was baby Mikki.
I pulled out a bottle of holy water from my pocket. I whispered, “I baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Your name shall be Mikki. Welcome to the Kingdom of God.”
At that moment, Marowe woke up.
I stood beside her and brushed her hair.
“I baptized Mikki,” I said.
A tear escaped her eye. And a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Friends, I thank God that we both trust God in our losses.
I don’t understand why God allows trials to happen to our lives.
But I’m content not understanding.
He doesn’t ask me to understand.
He calls me to trust.
And that’s what I do in situations like these.
You see, I believe that behind every problem is a hidden blessing.
He has a purpose why baby Mikki is in Heaven.
He has a purpose why we have three children in Heaven.
Because we believe that all things work for good to those who love Him.
I believe that even this situation is a perfect blessing.
I can only say, “Thank you, Lord.”
May your dreams come true,
Bo Sanchez
The message is so powerful. Don’t you think? We all have struggles. And there were times that I do question Him why. But the good news is we don’t need to understand why certain things happen. We just have to trust. And everything feels light.
