The good Lord has blessed Erick and I with three children. Our youngest would have turned 1 year old this month, but we were never given the opportunity to hold that child. I lost our baby in a miscarriage. We grieved mightily over the death of that unborn child, but we know we will be reunited with that child in heaven some day.
Today I am sitting here grieving for all the millions of unborn babies that have be killed by their mothers in abortions. Tomorrow is the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade. I know that I am surrounded by women and girls that have done this to their babies. The statistics cause tears to well-up in my eyes. I know that a lot of those moms are filled with grief and remorse for what they have done. I pray that they will repent and seek forgiveness in Jesus Christ. Jesus has paid for all of our sins with his blood on the cross. We can all be made pure and right before God with repentance and trust in Jesus Christ.
So, because of the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, I have posted a few very valuable links about abortion.

"For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb." Psalm 139:13
Tasha, I had no idea.... It's encouraging to hear though that you have such a heart for the lives of all of those un-born babies and for the mother's of those babies. But I am also truly blessed by both of your amazing boys! And pray that you and Erick would continue to raise them up in the ways of the Lord.
