Praise Jesus
I am becoming more and more passionate about the issue of abortion. I do not support it in any way, shape, or form under any circumstances. At all. I know this is not a popular opinion, and some will read that I believe these things and make assumptions about me, some not so nice, but this doesn’t matter to me.
God creates all human life. All of it. I don’t believe any human should have the right to decide whether the baby God has created deserves the right to live.
Understand- I pray for the woman who has had an abortion, who is under the weight of guilt and shame as a result of that decision. I want her to know the love and grace that is hers to know in Jesus Christ, that she might know the freedom from being forgiven of sin. I do not think that the decision to have an abortion affords anyone the right to show vitriol and hatred toward a woman- or anyone else who encouraged her- no matter why she had her baby murdered. Murder is an ugly word, abortion is an ugly act, and women who have had abortions need grace and support without anyone saying that what she did was ok.
I won’t say a whole lot more on this subject, but I do want to post this- it made me cry. Praise Jesus!

Here’s the basic premise: this woman was the director of a Planned Parenthood clinic, saw an ultrasound of an abortion, and said, “I can’t do this anymore.” She says that she saw, in the down economy, the focus of PP turn from pregnancy prevention to termination, since abortions make way more money for the organization than does prevention efforts.
I pray for the day when abortion is gone, done- that may not be until heaven, but in the meantime I pray, pray, pray. Please join me.
