Life

"Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, the days of my life all prepared before I'd even lived one day."
Psalm 39:5-16 The Message

January is National Sanctity of Life month. Every year in America 1.3 MILLION babies are aborted. That is unbelievable. There is no doubt in my mind that abortion is murder. There is also no doubt that life begins at the moment of conception. Unborn fetus' are humans just like you and I. I saw this video here on abortion. The video is really graphic, but really important to see. It shook me to my core to see the reality of what abortion really is.

A fetus has a heartbeat at just 18 days after conception. So before a woman even knows she is pregnant, the fetus has a beating heart.


I know this is a really heavy subject matter, but I just feel obligated to share. Abortion is a heinous and evil thing that is sweeping our world. It is so easy to turn a blind eye to it and not think about the 3,562 babies being aborted EVERY single day in our country. After seeing this video, my eyes have been opened. I can no longer turn a blind eye and pretend it doesn't really happen. Every single child, born and unborn, are precious gifts from God.

I know women get pregnant in non-ideal situations-rape, incest, young girls, etc. BUT that is no excuse to have an abortion. There are thousands of people that would LOVE to have a baby of thier own and would be overjoyed to adopt a precious baby from a woman who couldn't care for it.

I am praying that in my lifetime I will see the END of abortions.


"If my people, who are called by name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face, and turn from thier wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land."
2 Chronicles 7:14 NKJV
