Quote: You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother's womb.
I praise you, so wonderfully you made me; wonderful are your works.
Psalm 139, III
Comment:
On an EWTN program 2001 program, Mother Angelica spoke about abortion. She said if someone or yourself is considering having an abortion; they should read Psalm 139. A quote of Mother Teresa's,
"It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may wish." But, we are not to judge. Mother Angelica also reminded us of His words, "Forgive them Father; they know not what they do." Many years back, a young pregnant girl was considering an abortion. She said if only someone would give her a baby shower; she would consider having the baby. What a small price to pay. She got the shower and a beautiful baby girl. Another girl's mother told her to abort the baby; or she would have to leave home. Unfortunately, under distress; she listened to her mother and the baby was aborted.
We can reprove; but, not judge. BUT, we can step-in or step-up if the situation presents itself and not look or turn away.
Our prayers are still needed in 2014; there have been changes for the good, but, are work is not done.
Let's pray together for life.
