The parking lot was full

at the abortion clinic today....there were very few interested in materials and there were two girls that looked to be 15 years old walk out with smiles on their faces pretending we weren't there as if it were a game. There was a woman who was tall, wearing heels and very much ignoring my large family and the woman who is there most days who also puts up a sign of a mutilated baby. It was disturbing BUT if it stops a woman or man from going through with it then it is appropriate. My children seen the sign and I hope they remember it well...it is a baby! The baby was 21 weeks, the same age of a baby that can be "terminated" at the center. Why pretend? Termination what a term...it is so obvious that they mean to terminate a life but why is it accepted? These poor women have been sold a lie or they don't care. They need the Lord and I hope that our presence there may make them think twice but the Lord must work within these people's hearts. I hope to go back and be more in a state of mind to pray and sing and possibly reach someone. They need the Lord. If I could just read the Bible then we may at least speak a word to someone in need. The Lord can work miracles.

The woman who is there most days told me that a lot of churches pray for the abortion clinics around this time of year for 40 days. What a neat concept and a wonderful opportunity for the rest of us to cry out to the Lord over this atrocity. There is a prayer vigil at the local at the abortion clinic called, "Vigil for Life" Good Friday April 10 from Noon-Midnight. It is a peaceful vigil (which they all should be) Jesus never called for us to do anything but to be peaceful but I can see why some of the Jews rent their clothing over sin because that's exactly what this makes me want to do. What a shame for our dear children. If you have this on your heart and have thought of going please consider going or at least praying over this.

Across the street there was a women's center for women to go to to get an ultrasound and to look into options for their baby...that parking lot coincidentally was empty but I was glad to see one young woman in there when we went in there to pick up literature.

Oh, I'll put this under community service for our homeschooling. It is after all a part of their education and one they certainly wouldn't get in the public school...they might even have an abortion available to them by their school nurse. My older two loved it and were very excited at the thought of passing out materials to women who were considering abortion or to reach them after they had one (post-abortion resources) as we had these listed on our form.
