Powerful story. Thanks for posting it.
Well, I can hardly read it with dry eyes either.
I almost replied with a flippant remark; however, the story too powerfully illustrates the point that indeed, every day of our lives is a gift from GOD, we having done nothing really, to "earn," or, "deserve," another 24 hours.
Indeed, many unfortunate children have been denied the gift this young lady no doubt remains cognizant of throughout the year. Likewise, many of us who have been blessed with the gift of life often take it for granted...So as the first day of Summer draws closer, Merry Christmas!!
"and was told about the 'product of conception' and 'contents of the uterus'
Isn't it amazing that when we want to decieve others we first change the name to something else to draw attention away from the truth. It's too bad that so many millions haven't learned to see the truth and have murdered so many who couldn't protect themselves. They will never know the love they lost.
It's too bad so many people are so blind to the obvious.
I know one reason I am so pro-life is because I saw un born babies in jars in a local nature museum when I was a little girl , and because my parents gave me books on human development.... I never understood how they could know what they knew, and be pro-abortion.
Even dissecting a cat in anatomy class was life affirming -finding tiny kittens in its uterus, no more than 3/4 of an inch long, and possessed of tiny claws, and fused eyelids, and little tails - so very beautiful they were, and how much more beautiful they would have been living and moving with blood flowing in their veins, floating in the amniotic fluid. How could anyone look at such a thing and not cherish early life?
I believe there would be a huge difference in this land if all children learned fetal development by the time they were nine or so.

Years ago, I was teaching high school chemistry and I had what I called my "pro-life bulletin board" in the classroom. The school administration made me take it down, but by then my students knew where I stood. One day this girl came to tell me about a "friend" who was pregnant and asking to learn more about early human development and abortion procedures. I gave her a lot of literature, then I was caught up in my fight with the school administration and forgot about it. In May I found out that it was my student who was pregnant, not a friend, and that after looking at the literature I gave her, she had decided to let her baby live. She was expelled from this private school. Months later I saw her at the Mall, with baby Christopher... You understand I had to cry my eyes out!!! Thank you, Lord, for using me to accomplish your purpose!
