❤❤ Easy Access Death 

All is well doesn't always end well. This was a vividly demonstrated truth last week when we had a mom choose life after speaking with several of us for days straight, wanting originally to choose life but ultimately chose to take the abortion pill to abort her child. A horribly hard situation for all of us. Four of us poured our hearts out, offered every resource we could think of and expressed our compassion and support only to have her tell us that she thought it was best to abort her baby. Early in the days she told us she couldn't imagine life without her baby and in fact pictured herself in an SUV with all of her kids and she and her partner couldn't imagine giving the baby away so adoption was off the table. This gave us hope that she was turning the corner completely. We asked her to throw the satanic pill out. We believed that if it was harder to access an abortion there would be more time to gain this mother`s trust. 

In the end we lost the battle. Evil won. This mom of three chose to take the abortion pill to abort her fourth child. Each one of us has been sickened in our hearts. While we understand and are compassionate of this mom`s difficult situation, none of us can understand the thought process of “I cant give my baby away” but I can snuff the life out of it by aborting it is beyond all of us.

Somehow we need to eliminate the delusion in this situation. Somehow these women convince themselves that they are not willingly choosing to take away the hope in the form of life to their child. They are in fact giving them a death sentence ..

We need to find a way to help women feel empowered by adoption. Somehow we need to eliminate the perceived negatives about offering a child to a loving home of someone who can not have children or wants to share their life and love to raise a child born by someone else. 

It is also my firm belief that if the abortion pill wasn't so accessible we might have more time to build relationships to help the mother in crisis see that she can choose life and will have support in doing so. We begged this mother to throw the pill away. We will never know if she took the pill in a desperate moment and might not have done so if she'd had to make a big effort to go and get it.  We only know that all she had to do was reach for that pill and take it. 

It is a miserably broken situation. Easy to abort but hard to give a baby over to a loving home. We need to pray for this mother because studies are coming out showing that these moms suffer the most because the abortion is now at their hands completely. There is no abortionist involved to “blame”. Pray for all of us whose hearts died a little.
