Pro life or pro choice


I really struggle with the world I find myself in abortion is such a contentious issue.

                My wife has lost 4 angel babies and it deeply pains me to see fully grown women declaring that its “my body”, “my choice”. Yet what choice does the life in the womb have if the mother decides to terminate. Doesen’t that life have a right to live?

                It’s a painful subject not all women choose to get pregnant, most do choose to have sex, arguably some are raped which is terrible but is the child in the womb guilty of crime worthy of a death penalty.

                It must really hurt the heart of God when a child is denied life before it has even left the womb. I know it really hurts me to not have our four angel babies and even more so my wife.

                Yet I take my pain and I go to my secret place and there is peace, God knows my heart, but in the world while I am here I expect tribulation because I follow the truth.
                 I don't think we should condemn women who have or had abortions by I do think its important to let people know why some of our choices hurt the heart of God.  I don't think I could terminate someone who has no choice. Even soldiers fighting an enemy do not usually meet an enemy who has no choice as a consequence of fighting a soldier is possibly death. But a child in the womb has no voice or weapon to fight back with, it is totally at the mercy of someone else's choice and not his or her own choice.
                I believe in life we are totally at the mercy of our own choices good or bad, as the bible says "God will not be mocked a man will reap what he sows." Some sow eternal life reconciled to God and some sow condemnation in defiance.
