*I AM SO GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR MOVING ON MY MOTHER'S HEART*
Now where do I go from here with telling my family who will be highly disappointed and my critical church family?
ANY SUGGESTIONS
Praise God!!!
My suggestions are simple.
Spend a lot of time with God. Stay humble in your heart knowing your sins and the Grace of God.
Not everyone will respond well but many will. Take heart in those that to do and be patient and loving with those that don't. Don't try to defend yourself....let God be your defense. Keep your focus on God and your baby.
You'll be fine.

Just read through the thread, I am so glad your mother changed her mind.
I know things will be tough for you, but God has shown that He cares about you and your little one. Trust Him, tell people as you need to, and if anyone criticizes, remind them that this little one is a child planned by God before the beginning of creation, not a 'mistake'.
Praying for you and your family

If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain:
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain. (Emily Dickinson)

Above all else ... trust God, and in the great love He has for you.
The fear of man has made many of us to do things we later grew to deeply regret, things that have brought great sorrow into our lives, until He drew us near to Him, for the forgiveness and healing we have needed.
But it is the fear of the Lord, the desire to want to please Him first, that is what brings us great joy in this world, and the peace we all so desire in our hearts.
May God bless you and keep you, and your dear child, too.
Before it is over, it may prove to be one of your 'best' ... ... as all that is now happening to you may serve to draw you nearer to the Lord ... and what greater 'blessing' is there for us than 'this', that we would be drawn nearer to Him ...
I join with the others here, in praying that things continue to go well for you ...
