Today marks the 38th anniversary of the infamous Roe v Wade decision, which legalized abortion in America. Abortion has become, undoubtedly, the greatest civil rights issue of today. In the United States:
- 1.37 million unborn children are killed every year (42 million per year worldwide)
- 3,700 unborn children are killed every day
- 1 unborn child is killed every 23 seconds
- 41% of all New York pregnancies end in abortion
- Over 53 million abortions have been performed since Roe v. Wade.
Today I fast and pray, begging for the conversion of so many hearts, asking that God balances both his mercy and justice. And I plead for God to use me in service of life and dignity. Do the same.
(If you are a woman who has been through an abortion, there are a ton of groups who provide emotional and spiritual healing. Two of the best are “Rachel’s Vineyard” and “Project Rachel”.)
