Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

If anyone had any doubt, wondering if the abortion lobby cares more about the legality of abortion than it does the about women's health, they just need to read the decision handed down by the Supreme Court on bill HB2.

Amazingly, the Supreme Court Justices feel like requirements for abortion clinics and admitting privileges for abortionists to hospitals "provides few, if any health benefits for women." Tell that to injured women or the families of those who have died as a direct result of abortion. The all-too-familiar spin of these requirements and admitting privileges would put an “undue burden on women seeking abortions." How about the undue burden on women who seek emergency treatment following a botched abortion? Obviously, their lives don't matter. All that matters is abortion, the true god of the prochoice movement, and the burden it would put on the abortionist.

The court ignored over 3,000 affidavits presented to them by The Justice Foundation, in which my witness was contained.  No doubt there are millions more postabortive women who do speak out about their abortions because their families don't know about it, or they are not healed, or are afraid. Satan has a real hold over this.

It is easy to get discouraged in the climate we live in. As a post abortive person, it may send you spiraling into despair as we hear these things and see the battle in our next presidential election. It can seem that all is lost and the evil of abortion will never end leaving a path of destruction for countless years. "Safe & rare" has turned into any time, any way, for any reason.

The real burden of abortion on women doesn't involve hospital privileges or clinic requirements, but the fact that we have killed our own children. Some of us have lived with the psychological burden of abortion for decades with a society going to any lengths to deny our pain and experiences. Some of us have never been able to have other children because of the physical damage resulting from abortion, and other women have died from abortion. That, Justices, is the real burden.

Each of us needs to pray to see what it is God is asking of us. Then we need to pray for the strength and courage to carry out His will. It is not always easy, but we need to trust in the mercy that saved us to provide whatever it is we need, and we need to support each other.

Today is a very sad day. What was sold as safety for women has ultimately betrayed them.

In the end, we need to remember that the battle is already won by the death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus.  My prayer is that at the end of my life He will say to each one of us, "Well, done, my good and faithful servants."
