Be A Voice
Be a Voice
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves;ensure justice for those being crushed.
Proverbs 31:8
Speak up. God himself is calling us to speak for those who can’t. Although there’s many applications, those who are most unable to speak for themselves are the unborn.
In the womb each baby is “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14, NKJV).The heartbeat starts at twenty-two days from conception. Eight weeks from conception the baby has every organ in place. It can hear. It has fingerprints.
But did you know that the most dangerous place for a child to live in the United States right now is in the womb? Since 1973 over fifty million babies have died from abortion. Of this number, 93 percent of abortions were not performed because of health risks or rape. Thirty-six hundred babies die every day. That’s one every twenty-four seconds.
When a baby dies in this way, there are at least two victims: the baby and the mother. I have talked to women who thirty years later have not allowed themselves to grieve. They have buried this wound. If this is you, please know that God loves you, forgives you, and has that baby safe with him in eternity.
On my website I have resources especially for you. You can go to BibleBusStop.com. It is time for you to be helped and healed. And now may I urge you to use what Satan meant for evil, for good? Will you accept God’s forgiveness, and then will you accept the challenge to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves?
Make It Personal . . . Live It Out!
Why do women chose abortion? There are many reasons. The mere fact that abortion is legal creates a false belief that it isn’t wrong. Often, women see no alternative. They don’t realize there are families longing for children who would gladly adopt. They think abortion is less emotionally painful than adoption. Nothing could be further from the truth. There is good news! There are crisis pregnancy centers across the nation staffed by dedicated men and women willing to stand in the gap. They provide counseling and tangible assistance to women in crisis. Will you pray? Will you help?
