Regret expecting Baby #5

Just read a post about a mom who is expecting Baby #5 but wishes she could pursue a career and work towards buying a house instead. The couple did everything they could to "prevent this".


I am baby number 5 of 5. 5 means Grace. When I was born, my mom almost died. She went through a lot emotionally because of the church members and honestly did not want to live anymore at that point. After I was delivered, she lost her consciousness and was sent to the ICU where God asked her if she wanted to go. She actually said yes. But then, God reminded her that the baby needed a mother. So she decided to stay. 


Of all my siblings, God called me to follow in my parents' footsteps in terms of ministry and calling -- to be Elisha to Elijah. Today, my mom has cancer. And of all my siblings, I am her personal carer. The rest of them are either interstate or overseas. The nearest would be 8 hours drive from us.


Trust God. He knows what He is doing.
