For in truth, we do not know what tomorrow shall bring
Yet we gaze at the clouds or the moon, and feel comforted in their presence
We choose to become parents, with faith there will be a future for them
We choose to give up our children to adoptive parents, with faith they need a stable home life we cannot provide, yet we long to stay in touch so they'll know they are loved, not abandoned.
Faith often requires courage, tenacity, letting go. It means we surrender to the unknown,
doing the best we can envision to make our lives, our planet more sustainable.
There is magic and mystery in having faith be stronger than our fears and doubts.
When I am with young children and watch them become such unique little people,
I have faith all the tears, years, and hard work of being a parent do have a huge influence
on their future possibilities. May your faith grow strong roots that shall sustain you and me
with all the changes to come. May we all have faith life is indeed precious!
