"God is our Father and he never abandoned us"
         This quote is from Mother Candida. It may not be a well know quote but it says more and it states the obvious that others doesn't seem to believe. God is our father in heaven, He never abandoned especially in time of need. No one could ever go trough problems or difficulties without God, he is always there beside you helping you to stand back up when we fall. Mother Candida never felt alone because she had faith that God was just right there and walks with her every step of the way and has friends that also helped her in the success of the creation of the congregation of the Daughters of Jesus.
         As a daughter myself, i would never abandon my family in times of need especially after losing her job. My mother said everything was alright, I believed her but I still did help by saving, me and my sister gave our savings to out mom and even my relatives supported us. We never felt alone. We were blessed because my mom finally found another job and dad visited us sooner than expected. We learned how to live as a whole and what I gave was given back to me a hundred-fold. At the time of trials, we prayed, we attended mass, prayed the rosary everyday. What I'm trying to say is that God never left us he was testing my families faith.
