Biography oh Lord

Ekaterina Kharchenko Masha the current many times I noted how craftly people appear in my life.

And sometimes they also disappear in the same way - when the time comes for this comes. At a certain moment, the Lord sends the one who we need at this stage of life. And who needs to be taken away. Or we ourselves stop communication with a person, realizing that we are no longer on the way. Even if you talked for many years before. And we need people for different purposes.

In order for us to help them with something. In order to help us. For cooperation, friendship, admonition, gaining any knowledge, gaining hope, training of patience and humility, confessing our faith in them, a deeper knowledge of ourselves and reflection, as if in a mirror, our own “cockroaches”. Sometimes - as a temptation. And in order for us to sometimes say no.

Or, conversely, yes. And whoever needs it takes Masha to first grade this year. Beauty, an incredibly positive girl, a big lover of caterpillars. He loves to swim and dive, prepares to take the TRP. However, 7 years ago the situation was not so rainbow. She was about 11 months old, and she did not sit down, did not get up, but crawled only on all fours.

The eldest daughter Lisa also sat down late at one time and went. But Masha “surpassed it” in this. We urgently needed a masseur for Marusi. I was then deeply pregnant with the fourth child - Grisha. And my kids were born almost one after another. I found a masseuse working in our area. On the appointed day, she came. He sees Lisa with Kolya and, barely crossing the threshold, notes: - Oh, how much you are ...

Masha sits after that notices my stomach and gives out: - And you are still waiting ??? Where are you so much?! Or do you love children so? I was so confused from what I heard that I was not found, what to answer. She said that yes, I love. If a person comes to someone else's house in order to do his job for which he receives money, then does it all do not care how many children are in the family and why?

Well, okay. Masha needed a massage. And I didn't want to swear. She spent one massage session in our daughter. I had to come the next day, but canceled the visit for family reasons. Meanwhile, Masha fell ill with rotavirus, and we thundered to the hospital. By the way, in the hospital a neighbor in the ward, having learned that I was waiting for the fourth, asked the same question: - Where are you so much?

Scrolling in my head the situation with a masseuse, I have already come up with a post -factory invented an answer to her questions. And so, came in handy. One of the days spent in the hospital, I receive a message from the masseuse that she will not be able to take us after discharge: the next month she is painted. In urgently, I began to look for another person who could help Masha.

And found. A very pleasant woman, a pediatrician by education. Olga Leonidovna met us with a smile and admired the number of children. As it turned out, she herself grew up in a large family: there were four sisters. We worked well. Lisa always rejoiced at her arrival and strove to involve her in her games. Olga Leonidovna said that when Masha gets on the legs, it would be possible not to worry.

Her professionalism, love of their work and a warm attitude to children had their fruits: one fine day Masha rose. How I was happy and thanked God that with the first, the masseuse, we did not succeed! Yes, Rotavirus is very unpleasant. But how great it is that the Lord arranged everything like that, he took from the “wrong” man specifically in our case “wrong” and sent us a wonderful massage therapist!

We then turned to Olga Leonidovna more than once. And with Masha, and with Grisha, and with older children. I then recommended it to others. And now I recommend. Rotavirus is very unpleasant. But how great it is that the Lord arranged everything so and took through him the “wrong” man, but another story that took place in an earlier period. At the dawn of my churching, I got a job as secretary to the temple of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul at the Herzen Institute.

The years spent there were priceless. I strengthened in faith and gained many new acquaintances - it’s even difficult to count how much. With many of these people, to this day, in one way or another, I support communication. That period has become very significant for me. If he had not, my life would be completely different. For the time being, while the temple was a diocesan youth department.

There was also a department for working with deaf and hard of hearing. And for a long time this temple was the only one in the diocese where worships were accompanied by a gap. In the same place-the headquarters of the folklore ensemble "Belozerye" and the movement against abortions "Warriors of Life". I came there in the spring of the year. And a year later, she got married with a little.

Our wedding took place in the Russian style, and the participants in the folklore ensemble replaced the toamada. The street promotion of the participants in the “Warriors of Life”, and the movement against abortion also did not bypass me. I must say that, still as a teenager, I understood for myself that abortion is a murder.And once, when I just started taking the first steps in the bosom of the church, I fell into my hands a leaflet, which depicted a photograph of a divorced child of an abortion.

I then wondered: does someone still doubt that abortion is a murder, and that this is categorically impossible to do?! I somehow sit at work, fulfill my secretary duties. And one of the participants in the movement asks me: “And you do not want to participate in our promotions? I then studied and worked, and did not understand where to get time for such a noble cause. But I was interested in handouts that the guys distributed.

It was impossible not to notice their printed products: it lay on the way to the refectory. And everyone who was going to go to eat, passed by the corner, in which brochures, leaflets and stickers were stored, in one form or another, testifying in defense of life before birth. I tried to distribute any of them on my own. And even tried to attract her future husband to this. Temple of SVV.

Herzen but time passed, and I became an active participant in the movement. A few years later, after the birth of the eldest daughter, I spoke in defense of life only on the Internet. Later it began to get involved in literary work, and the protection of children before birth was the main theme of my works. I am friends with some guys from the movement to this day.

And one of the participants in the “warriors of life” became the godfather of my younger children. She at one time was my nanny-assistant. I could not do without a nanny. I continue to write articles and stories on the topic of protecting life before birth. And even now I can give a lecture on the beginning and development of human life in the womb, about the types of abortion and their consequences for the health and psyche of a woman.

Separately, I want to tell a little about one person with whom my work also associated me. I began to work at the temple shortly before Easter. Once a woman named Kira called us. Kira said that she has cerebral palsy, and she moves with a wheelchair. She really wanted to get to Easter service.
