Two Babies Talk In The Womb And Perfectly Explain God
March 07, 2023

A parable has been going around in which two babies talk in the womb about life after delivery. And their conversation sums up faith and God perfectly!
Faith is a tricky thing. It's having complete confidence in what we cannot see (Hebrews 11:1). But how can we possibly believe in something we can't see? After all, if we can't see something, how do we know it's there?

Well, there's a parable that's been circulating across the internet for some time in which two babies talk in the womb. And their discussion about life after delivery tackles this challenge perfectly. The babies' understanding of "Mother" is a beautiful analogy meant to parallel faith and God!
"For we live by faith, not by sight." ~ 2 Corinthians 5:7
Like many inspiring movies and books, this short story may be fictional. However, the impact that this work will have on its readers is very real. Enjoy!
Modern-Day Parable: Two Babies Talk In The Womb
"In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: 'Do you believe in life after delivery?'
The other replied, 'Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.'
'Nonsense' said the first. 'There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?'
The second said, 'I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.'
The first replied, 'That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.'
The second insisted, 'Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.'

The first replied, 'Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, then why has no one has ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.'
'Well, I don’t know,' said the second, 'but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.'
The first replied 'Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?'
The second said, 'She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her this world would not and could not exist.'
Said the first: 'Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.'
To which the second replied, 'Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and you really listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.'"
Living By Faith
It's not always easy to trust in what we can't see. It's a choice we have to make. And thankfully, our Father God understands our struggle. He loves us like a parent. With faith as small as a mustard seed, He will move mountains (Matthew 17:20). So it's our prayer that you will make the choice to believe!

Human love often falls short. We’ve all experienced heartache when someone’s actions or words didn’t meet our expectations.

Unlike human love, His love is perfect, steadfast, and unfailing.
