Should I get an abortion?

Way too many people are asking themselves this question. People need to know what abortions are all about.

I am not another "religious" person that's just being radical and over-reacting. I heart is broken for these babies being killed everyday.

Today April got to have baby Ella over. I love kids, but I never have really thought so much into babies and the issue of abortion. I never really cared before today.

Today, I was reluctant to hold the baby. Its been a while since Ive held a tiny baby, so I didn't really remember what to do. I couldn't resist her for long though. When I was holding her in my arms, all I could think about was what I knew of her story. In my arms is this tiny baby. She is beautiful! This baby should have been someone's best Christmas gift ever, as she was born on Christmas day. Right now she is in foster care because she was born with Meth in her system. Her mom has about 6 months to get her life together and get her baby back.

As I stared at her, I wondered, how could anyone give this up? This little baby, a gift from God. This little miracle. How could so many people choose drugs over their children? How could so many people give up children and get abortions, while there are many who would give anything to be able to conceive just one baby?

I don't know this baby, but I do know that I love her so much. God created her with a plan and a purpose, and it just doesn't seem right that if her mom had chosen to, she could have terminated her birth, and her right to life. That cant be right, no matter how bad the circumstances may seem.

I have been weeping from being overwhelmed by the thoughts I am having today. I have friends that have gotten abortions, and it just breaks my heart that they had chosen to kill their babies. watch this clip:



This sickens my heart. The thought of some babies being born and living apart from the mother and being left to die in a storage room. Now how is that any different from aborting a baby even a few days old? The first day most of the babies features are made up like if it is a boy or girl, what color eyes and hair it will have and other things.

My heart is just broken right now. God is working something in my heart. I pray and hope that April can get her baby and we can give her a chance to have a better chance at life and raise her to be a Christ-Follower. Her whole life and even eternity could be altered, and we could get to have a chance to be involved in it. I know God has a plan no matter what happens.

I love God.
