Nikonova Matrona Dmitrievna was born into a poor large family from the Tula province in 1881. The middle-aged couple already had three children, so they wanted to place Matrona in the Golitsyn orphanage, which was located nearby, immediately after birth. But one day a miracle happened: the unborn child appeared to the mother in a dream as a bird with a human face, whose eyes were closed. Matrona’s mother decided that the dream was prophetic and the baby should be left behind. And so it happened, a girl was born with her eyes closed - blind from birth.

Already at the age of seven, Matrona showed a gift - she could foresee the future and heal. Rumors about the unusual child spread quickly; many people came to Matrona’s house, even from other provinces, all of them asking for relief from the disease and for a prediction. She did not refuse anyone, she even helped those whom doctors refused.

Matrona’s powers, as someone might have thought, did not contain anything bad or evil; she healed people with prayers, sincere faith and a pure heart. The Blessed One devoted her entire life to helping people. The saint's memorial day is celebrated on May 2.

Why God doesn't give children: the opinion of the church

Scientists have explained for a long time how a child is conceived. Doctors have learned to diagnose pathological processes in the female and male body and have found several ways to treat each problem. However, it still remains unclear why an absolutely healthy married couple does not conceive. It is not clear why some women manage to get pregnant after the first course of treatment, while others unsuccessfully “try” one method after another. Doctors working in the field of reproductive health agree on one opinion: conception is a sacrament, the occurrence of which no physician can guarantee.

The Orthodox Church interprets the absence of pregnancy as a punishment for sins committed by family members. In order for the sacrament to happen and the long-awaited event to take place, the spouses must repent and ask for intercession from God and his saints. Regular prayers for repentance and help will definitely be heard. This is what the church ministers say. Their words are confirmed by numerous evidence of “miraculous” conception, when a long-awaited pregnancy occurred after many years of infertility precisely with the help of regular prayers.

Despite the fact that doctors do not so categorically affirm the benefits of prayer, they do not reject it. This is due to scientific research conducted in America. Scientists have recorded positive changes in the body of a praying person. During prayer, his blood pressure stabilized, his cholesterol levels decreased, and he became calm and peaceful. In addition, doctors emphasize the power of self-hypnosis, which can work wonders.

Suggestions for prayers

Sometimes, if a couple is not successful in having a child, it may not be due to a medical reason. In this case, clergy recommend turning to church to repent of your sins. Sometimes this prevents the child from entering the family. Orthodoxy says that people should cleanse their souls from time to time. This can help in solving many problems and in giving birth to children.

To Matronushka, a prayer for a healthy child will be fulfilled when the couple adheres to the following recommendations:

• often comes to church and prays;
• attends all services and Sacraments held in the church;
• believes that help will soon be provided;
• humbly accepts all difficulties.

Sometimes difficulties in conceiving and bearing a child arise from the fact that the husband and wife are not married. To correct this and live like Christian believers, you need to turn to a clergyman. You need to constantly improve yourself, do good, and give alms. No one needs to wish evil; one should try to communicate with people, as Jesus Christ taught. Then pregnancy will come unexpectedly, and the child will bring only joy.
