Your Gift. Your Reward.

By Leave a Comment

If you are pregnant, may you think of your baby as the beautiful gift God has given you. As your child is being formed in your womb, may you be encouraged to carry it through to full term. Life is such a precious gift, and God’s desire is for you, and your child, to enjoy it abundantly.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, may your blessing be upon every expecting mother, and her child in her womb. Help each mother to be nurtured by your love, encouraged by your strength, and guided by your wisdom. May her child be seen as your love-gift to her, and her generous reward from heaven. Amen.

Why Are You Ending Your Pregnancy?

For You formed my innermost parts; You knit me [together] in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks and praise to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Your works, and my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was being formed in secret, and intricately and skillfully formed [as if embroidered with many colors] in the depths of the earth. Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; and in Your book were all written the days that were appointed for me, when as yet there was not one of them [even taking shape]. (Psalm 139:13-16)

It is interesting how we have moved from tolerating, to accepting, to making it perfectly legal within Canada to have an abortion.

As far as I know, at this point in time, there are no laws prohibiting abortion within this country.

So, I was wondering how you feel about abortion? If you are reading this, then it is obvious that we can both be thankful to our mothers’ for carrying us through to full-term.

I don’t know your circumstances, and there may be many factors involved that you are contemplating, but I do pray that if you are planning to end your pregnancy that would choose to follow God’s direction for your life.

May you be encouraged to seek godly counsel, as you process your thoughts, lay down your burdens, and work through whatever challenges you are facing.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus,

Every daughter in your kingdom needs your help, especially when they are carrying a new life within them. May you bring them your consolation, your provision, and your direction, as they move through this particular time in their lives.

Show them your mercy, pour out your marvelous grace, and embrace them with your ongoing love, as they choose to follow your leading, one step at a time. Thank you, Lord Jesus, Amen.

Your Baby Is No Accident

Your baby is no accident, and neither are you. So, instead of choosing abortion, consider carrying your baby to full term, and bringing forth the life within you.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus,

May you speak life to every expectant mother about their own life, and the life you have placed within them. May you help each mother to choose wisely, according to your ways, because every gift of life is precious in your sight. Amen.

Women Who Lose The Life Within Them

By 2 Comments

Have you lost the life within yourself?

God has compassion on those who have had an abortion, for He knows the decision you have made, the pain that you feel, and the loss you are experiencing.

In the midst of all of this, God still desires to redeem your life, by giving you a hope and a future. He can help you to process your thoughts, spend time with you while you grieve, and give you opportunities to share your hidden pain.

Prayer:

Lord Jesus,

Please make yourself known to anyone who has ever had an abortion. Help them to express their pain, share their sorrow, and acknowledge their grief. As a mother never forgets a child they have carried, you also never forget the ones you have loved.

Bring your words of comfort to ease their sorrow, your closeness to cover their shame, and your peace to calm their troubled hearts.

In the days ahead, reveal yourself as the author of life. Show them how to find rest for their souls (Matthew 11:28-29), teach them how to wait upon you as their strength (Isaiah 40:31) and help them to trust in you completely wherever they go (Proverbs 3:5-6). Thank you, Lord Jesus. Amen.
