Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

I always find I am solemn on Memorial Day..it is hard to BBQ and kick off summer when you know families who have lost their sons to war. I feel their pain. Especially the families I know. Besides, it is important not to forget what Memorial Day is and the reason we are off..somehow that has gotten lost in the beginnings of summer.

Maybe it is because I know what it is like to loose a son, not to the Iraq war, but the abortion war.I know I would not want anyone to forget him. I also, of course know what it feels like to have a son serve. That constant fear of losing them. It is always there when they are at war. every knock on the door or ringing of the phone brings with it a dread of what may have happened.

One of my sons closest friends died in Iraq.. His name is Michael Glover. Mike was an extraordinary guy,big heart and faith  filled. 

I can still remember the morning we got the call, My Mike just happened to be home on leave. It is still so surreal, you want to believe you heard wrong, how can it be? I think of his family often and pray for them…I am sure it has not gotten any easier over the years.

There are major differences between military losses and abortion. These men & women have made the ultimate sacrifice for us. A complete giving of self. Our abortion were the opposite, we served self no matter how unwillingly.

Sixty million lost since 1973 and most are in denial. IT is good to remember the millions we have lost on that battle field as well.
