This post goes along with my last post on the debates but mainly about the issue of abortion within that post. This was a fellow blogger site http://audreycaroline.blogspot.com/!! It is an amazing site on preservering though the loss of a child and hr journey in God's arms! What she says is so close to my thougths but i am not eloquent like her. Read and understand:
"I couldn't help but notice how many women commented or emailed me to tell me that they were mourning the loss of a baby through abortion. Some were forced, and others were by choice. I am willing to bet that if you read my blog, you could guess that I am pro-life. You will also know that, even more important that my stance on any topic, I am pro-God.
Sisters, hear me on this. If you are one of these women, and you are carrying this burden with you as you travel through life, I want you to know that you are forgiven. Do not let the enemy torture you for one more day. We all have things that we deeply regret, that we struggle with, that we wish we could do over. The God I serve does not see me this way. He sees me as pure and clean...through the blood of Christ. "
What amazing words!! Every time i read this i have a wave of goosebumps, a smile, and a tear. It is sadness and happiness. I want women to know we all make mistakes some big and some small but God forgives!!! HE FORGIVES!! How lucky we all are to have this. Who are we to judge. I have to take a step back sometimes and remember who rules us all and who will make the final decision for eternity. Ask for forgiveness for our sins and we shall be saved!! My day is so much brighter after thinking about the fact that i have been saved..my God fogives me for everything i have ever done...and you all of you have been forgiven also!

National Debates
Wow how lucky was i to see the debates last night. I knew who i wanted to vote for but i had one small hang-up that was making it hard for me. ABORTION. I am a huge PRO-LIFE advocate. I don't believe in abortion for any reason, no exceptions!!! My husband, and most of you out there disagree with me and i accept that and i won't try to make you understand my choice. I believe God gives us life for a reason and we shouldn't have the option of taking that life away even if it puts our own life in jeopardy.
Maybe if i was in a life altering decision i would change my mind but i doubt it. I told my husband the same thing when i was pregnant with both of my children. If we have complications save them first..they have their whole life ahead of them. When you have an abortion you are killing a child of God! It is murder!! I have heard all the sides and understand why some might want to abort, rapes or developmental problems...but it is still your baby. I think that if you want to give up your child once born that is your right..but never giving them a chance is not an option.
I love OBAMA, i love his radical ideas on how to change our country. I think he is the fresh face that can move us away from poor past decisions and into a new time of prosperity. He cares for the children of the country but he is pro-choice. That makes it hard for me to vote for him. I hate most everything McCain stands for EXCEPT he is pro-life and proud of it! I love that he has stood up for his beliefs!! I know our country can do better than their current practices but they are better than most countries. Do you know in China they have 600 abortions for every 1000 live births compared to our 26ish to every 1000 live births!! What a difference! We have to be doing something right to have our numbers so low. But i think it should be non existent!! I understand that some people will go and do it anyways but i don' think the law should justify it. It is similar to drug abuse..millions of people do it but you don't make it legal just because it is common!
Obama made me feel more comfortable after the debate because he justified his actions. He said he didn't vote down the laws concerning babies born alive after abortions but that a law was already enacted in illinois to cover those rights..so it wasnt needed. He also said he tried to pass the other anti-abortion laws but wanted a clause in it about if a mothers life was in danger she could still the right to an abortion, they wouldn't change the law. I understand that it is a step in a right direction. It is better than no law. He said he does agree with roe v wade which is hard for me but overall he still has wonderful ethics and wants to do what is right for a parent and child. His stance is more the greatest good(for women) and mine is more if it saves one (child's)life it is worth the ban. It made me more comfortable with the issue. I know that i have to pick the best president from all his qualifications not just one. He has the best policy for the middle class and the best option for children and families. It isn't 100% my way but it is the best thati can hope for!
