Human life begins at conception. The moment that sperm fertilizes that egg a unique human being is formed. A little boy or a little girl is on the way with their DNA set, hair color determined, eye color determined, and a whole life ahead of them. They are living. They are valuable. They are precious. And these babies should be cherished. They are a gift from the Lord.
Abortion ends that life. Abortion rips them from the world they belong in, the womb where they should be safest, nestled under the heartbeat of their mother who should be their greatest protector. It leaves a missing piece, a family incomplete, a life unfulfilled. It's murder. Abortion is the intentional killing of human life. I will not apologize for calling it what it is. Nor will I apologize for being a pro-life Christian and a doula/educator with a firm stand against abortion. This is genocide. Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.

What if you are in a crisis pregnancy?
Or what if this baby was unplanned
and it's not a good time?
Blessings sometimes come with raindrops. Sometimes babies come at a bad time. Maybe it's a financial struggle. Maybe it's marriage problems or relationship trouble. Domestic violence is incredibly common. Maybe you're in the middle of college. Maybe this child will be close in age to your last and you're already overwhelmed to the max. There are many valid reasons that it's not a good time to have a baby. Those circumstances are often temporary. A child is not.
Eliminate the crisis; don't eliminate the baby. In your given circumstances, is there anything that can be done to solve or improve the problem? Is this something that will still be a problem a year from now? What about several years from now?
If the crisis can't be solved, what kind of help do you need? Seek support. Contact your local pregnancy resource centers. See if there are any programs you qualify for. Find your community of those who help others in a crisis.
Adoption is always an option. If parenting is not the right choice for you, there are many who would love the blessing of a child. You can give them that gift and give your child life.

Proverbs 31:8-9
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.
