After sharing my heart recently on being unashamedly pro-life, I got a ton of reactions and questions. I know it’s one of those subjects that stirs up a lot of feelings, and I don’t ever expect everyone to agree with me on where I stand on this issue, or any other for that matter. But for me personally, I will never change my mind or back down from my convictions. I believe explicitly that Father God alone gives…and takes away.
Some asked:
What about rape?
What about when the mother is a just a child herself?
What about when the mother is simply unable to care for the child?
I understand that these are all very delicate and sensitive issues. I cannot even imagine facing an unplanned pregnancy in any of the above circumstances.
BUT.
I believe with all my heart that God Almighty is the giver of life. He alone gives life, and takes life away. Every child conceived has a purpose and a destiny in this life. Every single child. Every child is meant to be. My God never makes mistakes.
Focus on the Family posted this YouTube video just a couple of days ago. I cried watching it. If only more young women knew what a blessing, a beautiful and treasured gift, their baby would be to a family whose arms are just aching to bring a little one into their home.
This is such a powerful testimony! Since we’re focusing on adoption this month, it is the perfect time for me to share it with you.
If only they knew.
Adoption truly is a beautiful gift!
