Abortion

Picture of a late term abortion (7months)
I hesitated to post this picture. It's so repulsive and grotesque. It's much easier to post a picture of a fetus in the womb. It's easier to turn a blind eye or look the other way.

Several weeks ago, I woke up in the middle of the night with this one thought. There are defenseless babies being murdered and I am doing nothing to stop it. I couldn't go back to sleep.  My previous post talks of the "Brokeness of God". God can't turn off the TV. He can't post a better picture. Look at this picture and let it sink in.  This is what He has seen.....50 million times (without turning a blind eye to one of them).  

S- Ezekiel 16:21 Must you also slaughter my children by sacrificing them to idols?

O- God was sickened by the children of Israel sacrificing their children to molech. Not ALL parents were doing this. If all people did this there wouldn't be any nation left, yet God held ALL of Israel accountable for the slaughter.

A- We look at this as very inhuman and archaic. We don't think there are any people that sacrifice their children to a god, yet in America, 50 million children have been slaughtered in the womb and the god that they slaughter their children to is mammon. Most do it because they feel the child will be an inconvenience. They feel a baby would get in the way of their pursuit of money and success.

P- It seems like such a big giant. I don't know what to do about this issue. Please forgive me for not standing up for those that can't stand up for themselves. God please forgive us for our selfishness and the innocent blood that has been spilled on this land.
