Thank You all for your responses...I appreciate them. I have been trying to find hope and love in the gospel. I haven't always felt like my son was made this way to punish me or my husband. I just did in the beginning and it was hard to believe in god and have the faith you all have in the gospel. I was angry at god and I couldn't understand why he would do that to me and my family. I have come to find that I am blessed through my child and that he is a blessing he has taught me patience and so many other things and I have met so many caring and loving people because of him. I never did harmful things before my pregnancy or during so it angered me that people who do drugs and things were having healthy babies. Then I came to learn that they could never love and care for my son as I have. They wouldn't have what it takes to make his life better and get him the medical attention he needs. So I'm just looking for more faith and help finding those answers through the gospel. I do appreciate all your responses. I look forward to making lots of new friends here.

Hi I'm new here and Im really of no religion. I have a friend who has told me alot about the Lds faith and has me believing in God more then I ever have. I have a million questions and don't know where to begin. I come from a family who believes in God but we never talk about it or go to church. I want answers and want to believe in something more then what we have here. I"m just beginning the bible don't know much about it. My biggest question is why does god give us children with disabilities? I have a very disabled son and I want to know is it a punishment from God? Did I do something to anger him? I kept being told by lds members he is a knight that fought in the war in heaven and that he is going to the celestial kingdom he is free from sin cause he can't be tempted. But where do they get this where do I find this in the bible or book of mormon?????? I want to believe but sometimes it is so hard when you feel you are a failure or that your being punished by god....any advice would be very appreciated.
