Today we observe Sanctity of Human Life across our nation. Isn’t it strange that we have set aside a day to remember human life? There are 388 endangered animals and 129 threatened species and Americans have gone out of their way to protect all kinds of life. However, we have failed to protect human life. The words of Jesus in Mark 10:14 , "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.”, are beautiful. Yet despite those words, nearly one million unborn children die by abortion every year in America.
Where can we start? We can start by getting on our knees and cry out to God to forgive us for closing our eyes and looking the other way for too long as young women have chosen to believe the lies of the world telling them abortion is okay and we weren’t there to refute those lies. The time has come for us as Christians to rise up against abortion and become involved in the lives of those who have chosen abortion or face an unwanted pregnancy.
What can we do?
1. Call your nearest pregnancy resource center and ask how you can help.
2. Reach out loving arms to those experiencing crisis pregnancies in this community. Get involved in their lives and help meet their needs.
3. Share the Good News of God's love by lovingly sharing others the way to receive forgiveness for sin and accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
