[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Catholic. I had a full term stillborn child. Was that God's plan? I don't believe it was. I think we live in a broken world where bad things happen to all people, and you yourself being "good" or "bad" has nothing to do with it. I don't believe God causes bad things to happen. In the wake of my stillbirth, I believe God used other people to comfort me, heal me, and love me. That doesn't mean I wasn't furious with God. I was. And I think God understands and forgives me for that. I don't know how or why God answers or doesn't answer prayer. I prayed for a healthy child. After I lost that child, I realized maybe I was treating God like some kind of Santa Claus- be good and God will give you good things. I don't think it works that way. I think God gives us strength, grace, and wisdom when we ask for it to help us deal with life's hardships and devastations. [/quote] I'm sorry for your loss, pp. Your post is moving.[/quote]
