The Longest Labor: Reflections On Being Open To Life, And The Beautiful Vocation Of Motherhood - Softcover
Synopsis
Society as a whole no longer believes that our families belong to God, including how many each one numbers. In this current culture of death, motherhood has little value in general. In light of this, more and more Catholic women are finding themselves in great need of support for the chosen lifestyle of staying at home and raising their families, and especially for remaining open to life. This book seeks to offer encouragement and affirmation to anyone who finds themselves on this difficult, often lonely path. Through the experiences and feelings of the author, which are common amongst traditional Catholic mothers, readers will find camaraderie, empathy, and hope, as well as a clearer understanding of the richness and beauty of the Catholic faith as it pertains to the vocation of motherhood. Each chapter within focuses on a common issue, such as fear, a sought-after virtue, such as humility, or a gifted experience, such as a “five loaves” miracle. Peppered throughout its pages are a number of prayers, meditations for daily life, and quotes to consider. Readers will finish this book not only better-equipped to ignore the blaring voices of the world which seek to turn them away from this most important vocation, but also more apt to hear the gentle and loving voice of our dear Lord as they face all the difficulties, and seek His will for their life.
