Life is Valuable

Life is valuable. It is sacred and beautiful. There have been many famous and well known quotes about the topic. For example, Albert Einstein once said, "Only a life lived for others is a life worth living." And in all of this concern about the tremendous sanctity and meaning of life-we seem to have left some people out of this equation. They are the people not yet in this world. They are the people who stir in their mothers tummy when they hear their daddy's voice. They don't have a voice yet. They are still developing in the beautiful process we call life. However, I would dare say they are very much alive. They are alive to all the mommies and daddies who long to have a baby of their own. They are alive to those who have lost their own children. They are alive to God, he has tremendous plans for each and every life. They are alive to me-and I am hoping they are alive to you too. I saw a video posted today about late term abortion. I cannot believe that as people ourselves we would be okay with harming another person. And for that matter-not just late term, but any abortions. It is legal to get an abortion in most places for any pregnancy up to 12 weeks. (Pregnant as in you are with CHILD, like there is a BABY-healthy and developing-inside of you.) At this stage in your pregnancy, your baby is 5.4 cm long. His/her brain synapses are forming rapidly. He/she has eyelids and can move his/her sweet fingers and toes. His/her's organs are performing more complex operations and his/her ears are in their final position. And the most important thing-his/her heart is beating. So, you are trying to tell me that is just tissue? I think not. It is a sweet little prince or princess of the one true King. He loves all of us-the born and the unborn.  Below I will post the video on late term abortion-it was truly heart-wrenching. Pray, pray, and pray. Pray that these women see the truth to their actions and that they realize even if they can't properly care for these sweet babies-a loving mommy and daddy will. That is the beauty of adoption. Adoption gives wonderful and loving couples who can't have kids of their own a chance to love and raise them as their own. Where will you stand? Be a voice.

This song is beautiful and oh so perfect.  Kings and Queens by Audio Adrenaline

"Little hands, shoeless feet, lonely eyes looking back at me

Will we leave behind the innocent too brief
On their own, on the run when their lives have only begun
These could be our daughters and our sons
And just like a drum I can hear their hearts beating
I know my God won’t let them be defeated
Every child has a dream to belong and be loved

Boys become kings, girls will be queens
Wrapped in Your majesty 
When we love, when we love the least of these
Then they will be brave and free
Shout your name in victory
When we love when we love the least of these
When we love the least of these

Break our hearts once again
Help us to remember when
We were only children hoping for a friend
Won’t you look around these are the lives that the world has forgotten
Waiting for doors of our hearts and our homes to ope

If not us who will be like Jesus
To the least of these
If not us tell me who will be like Jesus
Like Jesus to the least of these

Boys become kings, girls will be queens
Wrapped in your majesty
When we love, when we love the least of these
Then they will be brave and free shout your name in victory
We will love we will love the least of these
We will love the least of these"
