During my first birth, I gave birth to two charming twin daughters. And now, eight years later, my husband and I decided that it wouldn’t hurt to expand our family. This summer we traveled around the country, were in Moscow, St. Petersburg, went to churches and holy places. We went to Sergiev Posad to the Holy Trinity-Sergius Lavra. And everywhere in my soul I asked God to give me another pair of twins, this time boys.

When we returned home, a month later I found out thatpregnant _ And I was almost sure, andhusband too, that two sons will certainly be born. I only went for an ultrasound when I was nineteen weeks old, and they told me that I was expecting a girl. I didn’t seem to be immediately upset, I was rather very surprised: why not boys and why not two? But a few days later, I suddenly began to shed tears for my unfulfilled dream.

With my mind, I calmed myself down and inspired that God knows best who to give me, and it’s not the poor girl’s fault at all thatHer mom is stupid and feels test-antibiotic.com instead of joydisappointment . Probably, this happens to all pregnant women, when you are not expecting the one who was born in you. And I also feel guilty before God that myfaith was shaken. It seemed to me that if you ask on holy relics or in front of a miraculous icon, then it will certainly come true, especially if you ask for something good.

Now I have calmed down and am happy about my daughter, but in my soul no, no, and the expression pops up: “The ways of the Lord are mysterious.” Forgive me, good people, for Christ's sake.
