The value of life

Recently my friend had a miscarriage. She's already 30 plus so she told me, "It's kinda hard to get pregnant at this age, right?"
Another senior also just had their second miscarriage. I couldn't resist myself to ask, "Why?" (Obviously they also asked, "Why??")

One thing Paul mentioned to me is that their babies have the experience to be loved. It's a difficult trial. The parents feel that they've been "Pro-Life", but why they could not conceive yet (while other people have abortion). Nevertheless, yes, their babies are LOVED. That's the most important thing.

So one important message, when you have friends who experience this loss, you are really reminded about this value of life. All loss is difficult, a social work friend told me. Whether you experience loss of a baby in your womb, an old parent, or a spouse, it's still a "loss". So how can people claim that I can take the life of the baby? Or end a life of a person in comma state? These people who experience the loss can tell you that at that stage of life, there's still a LIFE, and they've experienced the loss of the life of these people that they love.

Please pray for these friends, so God strengthen their faith and hope and love. I believe God has a special mission for these friends.
