Last Thursday was the 42nd anniversary of Roe VS Wade, and I attended a student pro-life lobby day at the Arizona Capitol, I've never been to any kind of pro-life event, and I've never been to my state's capitol. When I arrived I signed in and got a t-shirt, and written on it was '' Remember The 13,401.'' I was curious what that number meant so I asked someone who knew. I was surprised and sad to hear that 13,401 was the number of abortions in AZ in the year of 2013. That is just one year in one state... I can't imagine or fathom the number of abortions in all the 50 states in america since 42 years ago.
A child in the womb has no voice, or choice about it's life. That child is a human being just like you and me. Each child is an amazing, beautiful creation of God, and it should be God's choice for the child's future, not someone else's. Because of the technology of this age, people are able to find out if their child has any problems or defects early in their pregnancy, and because they don't want to deal with it they choose to get rid of it. A child in the womb is not treated as a child, a valuable person, but instead they are treated like something that has no meaning, something easily remedied by just getting rid of it. Not only is the child in the mother's womb valuable but the mother is very valuable and a part of every life. A mother was meant to care and take care of her children, that was God's plan from the very beginning. Though troubles, hurt, and circumstances have hidden and scarred it. Being a mother now days is not something people want to do. Some mothers may not have the money or ability to take care of a child. But there are people who are willing to help them through and the child can be adopted. Abortions are a risk to mothers and can cause health problems. Not only is it killing a child but it's hurting the mother.
God is saddened at every life lost, every breath, every first step. God loves us and will help any who will receive his healing, love, and grace.. you just gotta accept him. So remember the 13,401 and the many more... Stand for life.
