(It is important to note that God is able to forgive all sins through His shed blood, the Lamb of God Jesus Christ. The heinous sin of abortion can be forgiven. If you have had an abortion seek, run to the heart who is able to free you from this enormous guilt to love and worship Him.)

_______________________________________________

I was looking for my place to serve. I’ve been hearing of the abortion clinics selling baby parts. It isn’t evil in itself that they dismember the unborn, but they also have to sell their body parts. The whole abortion law has gotten out of hand Roe v. Wade should have never come to being. The law had it right before when abortionists were punished for performing abortions. It is murder, savage murder of the most helpless human beings.

I really believe we as a nation do not want abortion but the devil won’t let it go, it has become a powerful stronghold. Once we allowed the murder of the innocent.

I told momma that I wanted to become a side walk counselor. So we went to the Right for Life office in town. We met Marcos Espinoza the director of the Fresno chapter of the Right to Life. He told us the National Prayer for Life was coming up I wanted to get involved.

Marcos gave us a crash course in Side walk counseling. He told us we were never to get off the sidewalk, we were to hand out pamphlets and ask if we could pray for them, or talk to the women who walked into the clinic. We also were never supposed to be angry Marcos said the women were victims.

Momma said she would go with me once. She was true to her word. The abortion clinic was on the other side of town, near the Tower District. The abortion clinic, The Planned Parenthood, stood there, with its doors a gaping mouth of evil.

The counselors were sitting down in portable chairs the shift could be anything you wanted usually an hour.

There were people from the Catholic Church, standing in a row and praying. They came every Wednesday to pray for the unborn.

I met Tina Fitzpatrick, a woman in her 30’s who used to pray across the street for the unborn she was our lead sidewalk counselor. I couldn’t talk to the young women, the way Tina did. I just recited the bible, recited the Words of God.

There was a thick blanket of evil around the clinic, even though it was day, it was dark it was inconceivable that women could come here to murder their babies. It was wholesale murder, and the way they killed the babies was absolutely demonic.

When young women would walk in, I didn’t know what they were there for, if they wanted some birth control, or if they had it in their hearts to do something else.

All of the stories we heard, the Kermit Gosnell’s, how their lives came down to murdering babies, it couldn’t have started out that way, he was in prison now where he belonged.

I read about an abortionist who strangled a newborn girl who survived an abortion, he put his man hands around an infant’s neck and just squeezed, what can be more evil than that? It is as if he was just possessed, what man in their right mind would commit such a brutal act? The whole nation was in trouble, and awaiting God’s judgment for the crimes against the unborn. We talk about genocide, this was a full-blown genocide under our noses and we don’t see it. Merely because it is the law for a woman to have her unborn baby ripped from her body did not make it moral or ethical. Nazi Germany shipped and attempted to wipe out the Jews of Europe, it was lawful to do so, but it didn’t make it any less savage.

I read my open bible, the corners of it were fraying, but I kept proclaiming the Words of God. My throat was dry and my voice was raw. I recited the Scriptures I was most familiar with Romans 8, Isaiah 53, Psalm 91, and Psalm 139, and parts of the Gospels of Matthew and John.

The Scripture in Psalm 139

“For You have formed my inward parts,

You have covered me in my mother’s womb,

I will praise You for I am fearfully wonderfully made.”

“Marvelous are Your works,

And that my soul knows very well.

Your eyes saw my substance, being yet

unformed.

And in Your book they were all written

The days fashioned for me,

When as yet there were none.”

(Psalm 139:13-16)

This is what we were fighting for, the people God has created, that are in God’s conscious mind, and sight, still inside their mother’s womb that He is creating for His glory. This is what angered me, that even criminal’s were given more compassion than an unborn child, with anger, with indignation my heart burned. This should not happen in a civilized country in a nation that professes to be Christian.

My legs were growing tired from standing. But how many babies had been murdered for the convenience of women? There was no justification for abortion, a woman was ordained by God to carry the fruit of her progeny, until born, whether or not she wanted to raise her child, carrying the baby was not a choice but an obligation to God and to her baby, and to humanity.

Very few women had abortions because of rape, or incest. This was a fallacy that we would take away the means of correcting a right for these women. The fact was it could not be corrected, evil could never be corrected by committing more evil, evil is overcome by grace and compassion, by allowing their baby to live, women who were raped were giving compassion and dignity something they were denied,. It hurt more for any woman to have an abortion, that was the lie of the devil, that it is better to kill your baby, than to let your baby live.

This was the truth Christians are proclaiming, that only grace can take that ugly stain away, not by murdering your baby, but by the forgiveness that comes only from Jesus Christ, this was the Truth that the devil didn’t want proclaimed. We are in a spiritual battle abortion was at the heart of spiritual warfare. Satan used the Feminist movement, the Constitution of the United States, and the law. These are the wiles of the devil convincing us that this was a just cause, when nothing absolutely nothing could be further from the truth.

I saw the faces of the women spitting their cause, these are some of the ugliest faces I have ever seen, the faces of the Pro-Choice movement, the women who boasted about having abortions. What you have done is murdered your own baby, this is nothing to boast about, feel ashamed and then repent to God, only this will save you. Until then you will always remain instruments of the devil.

I realized I couldn’t do this, hand out pamphlets, and stand only on the sidewalk. We could not cross the line.

The Church had to pray, and we didn’t pray for the unborn when we worshiped. We prayed about other things, but Sacred Heart and The Valley Christian Center did not lift up the unborn. I didn’t know about the other places of worship, but it was paramount to pray for the unborn, when this battle was vicious, and was a powerful demonic stronghold in this country. If we didn’t stop killing our babies, I knew judgment was going to be even more severe, with every child we murdered, God heard the cries of the innocent.

I was very judgmental where women who had abortions were concerned, but what I failed to understand was where these

women came from, the type of abusive backgrounds. I went with married men because of the abusive background I came from. What about the young women who were sexually abused by their fathers, and uncles and other men, what confusion and self loathing must be living inside of them? I thought about the baby who was ripped to shreds, but these women must have been living these types of lives “ripped to shreds.” Not all of them, but the women that were abused, need our prayers and love, but I was not able to do it at the abortion clinic, I only saw the baby that was ripped to shreds. God help us all.
