Really the life of Saint Monica impress me so much, and touch my life, because for any reason my life has been similar to her life. Obviously she is a Saint and I am a simple sinner. I'm married with a man that don't trust in the christian life. I have three sons and they still are going to the church but I feel that the world wants to trap to them. I beg every day to god for my husband conversion and for my kids salvation. I know that God have Mercy to any one and just like Saint Monica I am sure that God listen me, but I have to wait for him at his time. Thrust in God and never gave up.
