Prayer aids pregnancy, childbirth

Originally published in O Arauto da Christian Science

He told me that if things weren't normal within two weeks' time, I would have to terminate the pregnancy.

I was crushed because I was overjoyed at being pregnant and I knew that the baby was a present from God to me.
