A three month old baby, safe within its mothers womb - yes Virginia, that is a real photo of a real baby

So - Planned Deathhood, who makes obscene amounts of money off of killing babies is worried? GOOD!!! They are worried that they will not get some of the money from the health care reform - but what about abortion is health CARE? Read more here

Giving God Permission

If you want a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit, give God a blank check. Decide in your heart that you want whatever he wants for you, no matter what it is. Don’t put limits on him. Be willing to come out of your comfort zones and the grooves you’ve dug to ensure your safety, comfort, and security. Tell the Lord every morning that your life is his and that you give him permission to do with it whatever he wants. Then walk throughout your day with one ear turned toward the Spirit. Don’t leave the Spirit at home or in church. Be conscious of his presence; attempt to listen even amidst the noise and frantic pace of life. When you hear him, or sense his prompting or gentle nudge, act on it. Don’t hesitate, do what he wants you to do. If you do this consistently, the Spirit will become your intimate friend and he will make something beautiful out of your life.

Pope John Paul II told the whole Church as we entered the third millennium, that the Spirit is leading us to, “put out into the deep.” It’s time for the Church to leave the shallow end of the pool; the purposes of Christ and the power of the Spirit are being released in the deep end. It’s time for each one of us to dive into the deep water of the Spirit’s purpose and will for us.

When the Spirit Comes in Power - by Peter Herbeck p.148

Stupid? A liar?

I have been accused by those who are pro-abortion, that I am really stupid and not being truthful when I state "I did not know what an abortion did - indeed, I had never heard the word 'abortion' when I had my abortion at the age of 18"

The fact of the matter is that 1) I am not stupid and 2) I did NOT know what an abortion did.

Now, all too tragically, I do know what abortion did and does - and here, is another woman, a woman who was a director for a Planned Deathhood clinic who also did NOT KNOW. She was in denial as to what abortions did, probably in no small part, because it was how she made her living. In her words ...

"Johnson: "I saw the probe going into the woman's uterus. And at that moment, I saw the baby moving and trying to get away from the probe. ... And I thought, 'It's fighting for its life.' And I thought, 'It's life, I mean, it's alive.'"

The good news, dear readers, is that she now knows what abortion does and she has made a choice to remove herself from the killing fields. Read more here.

There will be those who will judge her, both on the pro-abortion side and those on the anti-abortion side, saying that she knew all too well what abortion did - but I, who know the feelings of denial, know that she is being truthful. She had been blinded by the ideology of abortion and was not able to see abortion for what it truly is - the deliberate dismembering of an innocent human being.

I have a license frame holder which has imprinted upon it "Heading in the wrong direction? God permits u-turns."

Oh Lord, we are so grateful for your mercy, your compassion and your love. I pray for Abby Johnson as she seeks to come to grips with what her past employment did to thousands of babies. I pray too that she will feel your love and your forgiveness in her life. For you, O Lord, along with all the angels and saints, rejoice when one heart is converted.

I am so grateful to God that He permits me my numerous u-turns! He offers them freely to all ...

Stupak Amendment

Passed in the House - let us continue to pray that it will pass in the Senate - if, indeed, we must take on this huge national debt. Abortion is neither health care nor health reform.

Scientists Say Newborn Babies Cry in Native Language Learned in the Womb

Okay - so if a baby is not a baby in the womb, then how is it that it can learn how to cry in the womb? From the article - "French newborns tend to cry with rising melody patterns, slowly increasing in pitch from the beginning to the end, the scientists noted. On the other hand, German newborns seem to prefer falling melody patterns."

Black Saturday...

Could we ever imagine a day when our government would be voting on taking our money, our tax dollars and spending them to kill innocent United States citizens? A day when people in this nation would be so comfortable with the slaughter of millions of children?

I know, I know the argument that abortion is "legal" but why? Lord, we have fallen so far from your love, bring us back to understanding how You wish us to care for one another ...

Here is the context of an email I sent to those who are voting today - who have the responsibility of making a decision to kill or not to kill...

"Thomas Jefferson once spoke - "To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical."

I do not want one dime, one penny or one nickel of my hard earned money (yes, I work in the private sector) toward the killing of innocent human beings. Your ideas of "reform" are sinful and tyrannical.

Vote YES on the Pitts-Stupak amendment and NO to Pelosi's "reform"

If we do not stand for the most innocent and most vulnerable among us - we will all perish and will not have eternal life, but eternal death.

For your convenience, here is a list of the email addresses you may contact to tell your elected officials to stop the insanity. You can copy and paste the addresses into your "to" line. Write your own message - but write! A life depends on you and the life you save may one day save your life...

To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

Saturday...oh my goodness!

Our government is becoming more and more secretive and what is so sad is that they are transparent in the doing of the same!

A vote on one of the most important issues of our times - whether or not to kill innocent human beings using every Americans' tax dollars is coming up on this Saturday. Nancy Pelosi - that is also a day when many churches offer the sacrament of reconciliation - you would do well to get thee to a confessional instead of trying to garner money to kill innocent babies.

Pray - pray and pray for our nation to turn back to God and to end abortion. We have killed enough innocent human beings and injured our whole nation.
