So when I started out writing this post, it had an entirely different feeling and an entirely different approach; however, as I was starting to quote statistics, details, and more, my approach changed. It would have left one feeling angry and/or hopeless. My heart softened a little if you can believe that especially in regards to the subject matter. In many ways you have Big Mac and his exhausted tears to thank as I had to remove myself from the computer to attend to him this morning, which gave me the time to rethink my approach and feelings.
I have found myself becoming very passionate about the wrongs of abortion, and how absolutely horrible it is, and how heartbreaking it is truly is for me and for this nation. Although I disagree with abortion whole-heartedly; and my heart absolutely breaks for the babies who have been senselessly killed; and as I disagree with our President and many leaders as well as many aspects of Planned Parenting as I have learned more about that organization and their funding, I have to let go some of the ache and emotion too.
The methods to kill these babies are horrific, I have researched them. They die like animals. Actually, veterinarians allow cats and dogs to die a more humane death than all of these babies have and will endure; however, I will not list the methods on this blog to prove that point, because that is not the purpose of this blog.
The fact is this, although approximately 1.1 million babies will be aborted in the U.S. this year alone and out of that number some will survive the abortion only to be left to die a painful death alone, it is not my sin to bare. Although I plan on getting more involved a few years down the road when my kids have grown just a bit more, and especially in one specific area and how it can pertain to adoption, in many respects I was not made to carry this burden. I was not made to carry the sins of so many others. This is far too big and great for me. I need to allow God to hold them accountable for their own sins and their own part. Just the weight of my own sins alone is just too much for me to bear, much less carrying that of others and trying to be their judge. Only God can redeem and make right. And He can and WILL make it right. He can and WILL make right...
God Bless all those precious Angel Babies.
This is merely a place of self-reflection for me. After recent events in my life, I have learned that although some doors of life open that we may prefer stay closed nice and tight while others close that we prefer stay wide open, God is there every step of the way and He can use anything for His glory and blessing!
