Protect Life

   This day has been designated as a day of prayer for the legal protection of unborn children.  It was on this day in 1973 that nine men sitting on the Supreme Court decided that human life in the womb is of no value and can be destroyed and thrown out with the trash.  Since then nearly 63 million babies have been murdered in their mother’s womb.  That’s about the same as the population of Texas and Florida combined.

   I usually try to stay away from political issues in this blog, but life is so much more than a political issue.  Only God can create life.  Men and women are blessed as the means God has chosen to continue to create life.  We can cooperate in God’s plan for life, but we can’t create life without Him.

   It’s time we stood for the rights of the lives of those in the womb.  It’s time we told our politicians of whatever party that we will no longer vote for someone who supports abortion.  It’s time to protect the babies in the womb!

   Consider the innocent lives lost through abortion.  We will stand by as another 63 million babies are slaughtered or will support the rights of the unborn?  Take a few minutes today and pray for an end to abortion.  Pray also, for those who have suffered and are suffering for their decision to abort.  May they find peace and forgiveness in our Lord.

Father, only You can give the gift of life.

Touch the hearts of those who support abortion.

Open their eyes to see the horror.

Protect those innocents to whom You have given life.

Amen
