,,, abortion has remarkably little upside.
Thank you so much...I'm sending this to my daughter right now!
Thank you for being with us. I know a woman who gave a child up for adoption over 30 years ago, because she wasn't married. Though she had other children, and now has grandkids and even great grandkids, she still remembers his birthday, and prays he's doing well.
maybe not..........
A bunch of women talking about their aborted babies and cheerfully insisting they never thought about it, not even once, sounds like an awful lot who A:)continue to support a woman's 'right to choose' because they crave justification for their action - misery loves company, and that company provides this false sense of justification - and B:) are lying to themselves because they refuse to face any emotional repercussuins for their actions. The emotions are THERE, forced down and festering...but as long as they refuse to FACE them, they think everything will be OK.
It's depressing, really.
Anyhow, this kid is now 13. Needless to say, I prefer to recall those first few moments rather than think about the possibilities she could present me with during the teenage years! [LOL]

A PRAYER OF MARY
You didn't make it, Unborn Child, they wouldn't let you be.
To your bud of life they took a knife … it's the New Morality.
They didn't mean to hurt you, Love, you have to understand.
Forgive them what they did to you, their life was so well-planned.
They couldn't take you with them up the ladder of success,
Money, it meant more to them than a child from heaven-blessed.
Tell me, little Unborn Child, what did Creator say?
Did He wrap you in his love and wipe your tears away?
You hover on the edge of time. I see your faceless form.
You laugh whenever children play, Oh God, for you I mourn!
He sent His only precious Son to teach us all The Way.
Still, we kill the unborn ones, it happens every day!
You didn't make it, Unborn Child. They wouldn't let you be.
They just expunged a blob of cells…. It's the New Morality.
Yep, Hildy is a proud example of the 'new morality'. You are so well adjusted, Hildy, but then, so are a few (but not many) of the serial killers plying their 'trade' in abortuaries.
The following story entitled "Sing A Little Louder", told by an old weeping "Christian" man, holds a very important message for us today. May its words ring loud and clear, reminding all Christians everywhere the consequences of our [physical and spiritual] uninvolvement. May our L-rd G-d Almighty Who is Israel's Savior, Redeemer, and King, forgive us our sins, and deliver us from that cursed spirit of indifference. May the following poem entitled "The Passenger" also help us to clearly see this truth
"SING A LITTLE LOUDER"
After a speech, Pro-Life activist Penny Lea was approached by an old man. Weeping, he told her the following story:
I lived in Germany during the Nazi holocaust. I considered myself a Christian. I attended Church since I was a small boy. We had heard the stories of what was happening to the Jews, but like most people today in this country, we tried to distance ourselves from the reality of what was really taking place. What could anyone do to stop it? "A railroad track ran behind our small church, and each Sunday morning we would hear the whistle from the distance and then the clacking of the wheels moving over the track. We became disturbed when one Sunday we noticed cries coming from the train as it passed by. We grimly realized that the train was carrying Jews. They were like cattle in those cars! "Week after week that train whistle would blow. We would dread to hear the sound of those old wheels because we knew that the Jews would begin to cry to us as they passed our church. It was so terribly disturbing! We could do nothing to help these poor miserable people, yet their screams tormented us. We knew exactly at what time that whistle would blow, and we decided the only way to keep from being so disturbed by the cries was to start singing our hymns. By the time the train came rumbling past the church yard, we were singing at the top of our voices. If some of the screams reached our ears, we'd just sing a little louder until we could hear them no more. Years passed and no one talks about it much anymore, but I still hear that train whistle in my sleep. I can still hear them crying out for help. G-d forgive all of us who called ourselves Christians, yet did nothing to intervene."
"Their screams tormented us . . . If some of their screams reached our ears we'd just sing a little louder."
Now, so many years later, I see it happening all over again in America. God forgive you as Americans for you have blocked out the screams of millions of your own children. The holocaust is here. The response is the same as it was in my country - SILENCE!"
Have you ever wondered HOW people could have stood by and let the holocaust just happen? Do you wonder why the Christians in this story chose to just sing their praise to God a little louder to drown out the victim's cries?
The old man's story is in the past. The past cannot be changed. It is easy to think we would act differently now. But the old man's last words are haunting "It's happening all over again in America with abortion. The Holocaust is here."
As American Christians, we have become so comfortable in our lovely buildings and padded pews. We have beautiful fellowship halls for our many banquets. We have the latest sound equipment for our praise and worship. We have computers to keep our records. We gather together each week and shut ourselves inside our buildings. We raise our voices as loud as we can, all in the name of God.
And yet, in the heavenly realm, our voices raised in praise are drowned out by screams of agony from millions of babies who are being executed before they are born. We can't see them. We can't hear them. But it is happening right now!
Babies are being aborted UP UNTIL THE DAY OF BIRTH in this country. Their organs and brains are "harvested" for use in medical experimentation. In Wichita, Kansas, the smoke stack from the furnace of Dr. Tiller's abortion clinic belches out black smoke and the sickening smell of burning flesh. These are the bodies of 7th, 8th and 9th month old babies being "disposed of".
If the Christians in the old man's church had done something, they would have probably been killed. That is not the case with us. We don't even have that as an excuse for our silence.
Years from now will you be like that old man trying to explain your apathy as millions were led away to slaughter in abortion clinics? Or will you raise your voice and cry out in protest for those who have no voice! The choice is YOURS!
,,, score one for abortion! What a script!!!! Cut and print. "Abortion, bringing families together! [LOL]
"I found myself in anger, I cried out in despair. I prayed, "L-rd let them hear me! Let just one person care!" I raised my voice to heaven as the train kept moving on, as we passed behind the church yard! I could hear the worship songs. I cried out all the louder to the Christians there inside, but they raised the chorus louder not hearing me outside. I knew they heard the whistle and the clacking of the tracks. They knew that I was going to die and still they turned their backs. I said, "Father in heaven how can your people be so very hard of hearing to the cry of one like me? I shouted, "Please have mercy! Just a prayer before I die!" But they sang a little louder to the Holy One on High. They raised their hands to Heaven but the blood was dripping down. The blood of all the innocent their voices tried to drown. They have devotions daily, they function in My Name, and they never even realized it was I upon that train.
FACTS ABOUT ABORTION
Fact: In the United States it is legal to abort a baby up until the day of birth.
Fact: In the D&X procedure babies are "partially aborted" so the head is still in the cervix but the body is out. While in this position the live baby is still considered an "abortion" therefore a non-person. The live baby's brains are sucked out and the other organs are harvested and sold to "researchers". The baby receives no anesthesia and is alive until the procedure kills him.
Fact: Every day in America about 4,400 babies die painful deaths by dismemberment, chemical poisoning, lethal injections into the heart, being torn limb from limb and now, being partially delivered and having their brains sucked out and their organs sold.
Fact: Abortion has two victims - the baby and the mother. Many women who have abortions suffer both physically and mentally. Depression, anxiety, grief, infection, sterility and even death are not uncommon as a result of the abortion.
Fact: Only 1% of abortions are performed as a result of rape or incest. Most abortions are done as a form of birth control because the baby is "inconvenient", "too expensive", or a "burden".
There are some 175-200 MILLION "Christians" in America. If we each did 1-hour of pro-life a month, just sixty damn minuets a month, we would end "legalized" abortion/child murder in no time--and change the world in the process.
I firmly believe that the solution to ending the culture of death does not realistically lie with changing the minds of pro-abortion adults; it lies with preserving the 99+ % of children that are naturally pro-life on their first day of school.
Comprehensive sanctity of life before birth education is THE MISSING KEY OF THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT
Having raised three teenagers, all of them with very differing personalities, all I can say is : good luck, and God bless. And, uh...it USUALLY gets better by the ages 20 to 24.
Some of these posts make me wonder if some people are living in an alternate reality.
