charmaine:
I just want to thank cultureshiftforlife with every fiber of my being. Thank you for your time and energy in fighting against abortion.
I had an abortion about 20 years ago and I believed the lie about it being tissue and unhuman at that point because it was convenient for me and I was immature and irresponsible. I was never taught that I was valuable enough to set strong boundaries in my life as a young woman. I learned the hard way.
The abortion was extremely traumatic and I didn’t know who to turn to. FEAR won that day. I stayed silent and forgot for over two decades until I finally decided to do therapy AND a 12 step program through Celebrate Recovery to figure out what the hell was wrong with me. Abortion wrecked me. I will be sorry and in pain for the rest of my life. I have to accept that it is part of my story now. I will live with grief for the rest of my life.
I hate Planned Parenthood for ignoring the fact that innocent babies are being killed. They portray the victims as the mothers like they did nothing to become pregnant. The victims are the preborn. I should start bottling my tears because I will never stop crying for them.
cultureshift:
Just like your child, you were a victim of Planned Parenthood’s lies. Although your awakening was too late for your precious baby, it’s not too late for those scheduled to die by abortion today. The most effective antidote to the pain you feel is to ignite your hate into an act of love. The voiceless victims carried into Planned Parenthood and other human slaughterhouses around the world need you to fight tirelessly for them.
As you may know, my little sister was killed by abortion just after the United States Supreme Court wrongly ruled on Roe v. Wade, stripping millions of Americans like her of their right to live among us as equals. She is my guiding star in this struggle and I am her stolen voice. Let your forsaken child be the same for you, and you for them. I dedicate every life I snatch from the jaws of abortion to my sister’s memory. In a way, she saves their lives, not me.
Be fierce in your defense of the defenseless. Imagine if someone like me had been able to spend some time with you 20 years ago.
Fighting for Life with Every Fiber of My Being
Thank you both for bravely sharing. Your tears are not wasted, God saves every one in his bottle. Though it is very painful, they motivate you to help others. Even though it was a tragic way for them to go, Charmaine your preborn child, and Cultureshift your sister, are two beautiful deposits in heaven whom you will see again if you so choose. They are safely in God’s hands in paradise, hang onto this thought…
Charmaine- If you have asked God to forgive you, he has,& has thrown it into the sea of forgetfulness! Forgive yourself, we have all done wrong in our lives and need forgiveness. Jesus has paid the penalty, then all we have to do is accept & believe.
My former spouse suggested I end the life of my first child, (I didn’t) then tried to force me to when I thought I was pregnant again with the threat of killing us both. Though I knew I would rather leave than be forced into such a thing, I was so stressed out by his threats that when my period finally came 4 weeks late, I thought for sure the stress has caused me to miscarry, I was convinced I was pregnant. This made me doubly sad, as I wanted another child so bad. Only God knows what really happened, and one day in heaven I will know if I was actually pregnant or not. I never had any more children due to his threats, and never remarried…
But part of my motivation to protect the innocent goes beyond the pregnancies. I and my first child were both mentally and physically abused until we were able to get to safety permanently. It was after we were on our own, that I saw pictures of little preborn babies and the devastation that the murderous abortion procedure does to their little bodies. I could not help but identify with their suffering and determined right then to become involved in their defense. My child and I have both been involved in helping the preborn since then. My decision was also greatly supported by what I knew about God from reading his book and how he felt about the innocent and their need for protection… Thanks again for sharing your stories…
