There has always been a debate raging between pro-choice and pro-life groups. When
I was much younger, I was firmly in the pro-choice camp. For the past thirty years
I’ve become 100% pro-life. Why the extreme shift in my thinking? Perhaps because
I experienced both first hand. My renewed faith in God, and having children of my
own were the main deciding factors in my changed perspective.
When people make a case for pro-choice, they do not consider the after effects of
abortion on a woman’s life. My own life was broken for decades afterward. No one
ever seems to talk about the grieving, mental pain, and suffering one experiences.
These can also include: negative self-talk, depression and suicidal thoughts. Abortion
made me feel unworthy of God’s love for many years.
This story, my story; “The Counterfeit Christian”; is my perspective as someone who
has experienced all of these things. I believe there are other women who are suffering
in silence as I did, living like walking wounded. I want to share with you and them,
that God pursued me for many years. He forgave me long before I forgave myself.
God will give you the same second chance he gave me, if you only ask forgiveness and
truly repent, God will forgive.
