Healing Hearts Ministries Internaional [LOGO]

Dear Friend,


Over our 30+ years of ministry, we have ministered to many women on the topic of motherhood. Whether it was a strained mother relationship that needed healing, or finding hope after a miscarriage, or receiving forgiveness from an abortion, God’s Word has faithfully held the answers for each heart. Every one of our Healing Hearts Certified Counselors counts it a true honor to walk alongside our study participants to help them meet and know more intimately their wonderful Creator, Redeemer, and Lord.

As we celebrate Mother’s Day this month, I wanted to share a short article that I came across which caused me to once again marvel at the incredible beauty God has uniquely placed into His design for motherhood and, by extension, into each of our lives.


“When pregnant, the cells of the baby migrate into the mother’s bloodstream and then circle back into the baby, it’s called ‘fetal-maternal microchimerism.’

For 41 weeks, the cells circulate and merge backwards and forwards, and after the baby is born, many of these cells stay in the mother’s body, leaving a permanent imprint in the mother’s tissues, bones, brain, and skin, and often stay there for decades. Every single child a mother has afterwards will leave a similar imprint on her body, too.

Even if a pregnancy doesn't go to full term or if you have an abortion, these cells still migrate into your bloodstream.

Research has shown that if a mother's heart is injured, fetal cells will rush to the site of the injury and change into different types of cells that specialize in mending the heart.

The baby helps repair the mother, while the mother builds the baby.

How cool is that?

This is often why certain illnesses vanish while pregnant.

It’s incredible how mothers’ bodies protect the baby at all costs, and the baby protects & rebuilds the mother back so that the baby can develop safely and survive.

Think about crazy cravings for a moment. What was the mother deficient in that the baby made them crave?

Studies have also shown cells from a fetus in a mother’s brain 18 years after she gave birth. How amazing is that?”

If you’re a mom you know how you can intuitively feel your child even when they are not there….Well, now there is scientific proof that moms carry them for years and years even after they have given birth to them.

I find this to be so very beautiful.

I hope reading this is a blessing to you. No matter how messy or difficult your experience with motherhood has been, our God is a God of incredible beauty and restorative work. And as His beloved child, He has placed His own Image on you in extraordinary ways, down to the smallest detail.

If you or someone you know is hurting or searching for answers to a difficult situation, we have studies for men and women that will gently and faithfully administer healing to their broken heart. Please consider visiting www.healinghearts.org/get-help-now to learn more about how we can help.

Because this month shines a special light on mothers, it can be a painful time for many. So please take extra care with the people in your life. Pray that God would bring healing where needed in their life.

Share the hope of God’s truth with them – that they are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). And, if appropriate, let them know about the Healing Hearts studies.
