Love this article but feel sad that Infinite Grace still suffers. The truth is, you can get past the feelings of guilt and shame with the right help. You do not have to live with those feelings forever. That does not mean you forget, but who wants to forget their child? Praying that all those who feel they need to live with those feelings forever get the help they need to move past it to peace and freedom in Jesus Christ.
Women Hurt by Abortion the Key to Pro-Lifers Winning the Abortion Battle
by Nancy Flanders | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 10/11/13 6:19 PM
It’s been over two decades since the day a post-abortive woman who blogs under the name Infinite Grace walked into the clinic at age 17 and aborted her daughter.
Twenty-six years hasn’t rid her of the guilt and the pain, but she
has felt forgiveness from both God and her baby, and she knows that her
baby girl, Grace Anne, is with her through each trial and tribulation
she endures. She knows she is the answer to winning the right to life
for unborn children.
Infinite Grace describes her abortion experience the way many woman
have – cold, frightening, and lonely. She went alone to the clinic that
day with $300 in her pocket. Three hundred dollars that her mother had
given her without her father’s knowledge. Only her mother knew where
Infinite Grace was headed that day, and they vowed to never speak of it
again.
Once
at the clinic, she learned she was 12 weeks pregnant. The counselor
told her it wasn’t a baby yet. The abortionist didn’t speak a word to
her, didn’t even look at her. She cried throughout the procedure, and
she can still recall the gurgling noise of the suctioning machine. After
it was over, she straightened her skirt and went home.
She didn’t acknowledge her baby or the abortion again until years
later, when she met the man who would become her husband. After that,
she sought help from Rachel’s Vineyard and began her healing journey.
Today, she attends events like the March for Life, keeping her story to
herself because of the harsh reality that some pro-life activists have
zero compassion for post-abortive women. Infinite Grace strongly
believes that women like her are the ones who will ultimately bring
about the end of abortion, but they need to feel more welcome in the pro-life movement. She writes:
[…] I see the post abortive people in this world being the key to the
prolife ‘fight.’ 55 million abortions in the United States in the past
40 years – 55 million babies translates to 55 million possible foot
soldiers in the prolife fight. 55 million. Even though the prochoice
crowd has been chanting for 40 years about how abortion is a choice and a
right – those who have chosen to exercise that right mostly remain in
the shadows or in secret. Few stand up and shout from the rooftops how
fantastic it is that they chose abortion, fewer still stand up and shout
how they regret their choice.
