This topic of the sancitity of human life and also the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, affording babies who survived abortion to be given medical care and not left to suffer and die is one that should not be ignored nor neglected.
All human beings have been afforded the gift of life and we who have been touched by adoption know the blessing of all those precious lives that were the result of the life giving option of adoption.
I personally feel that I was blessed to be an adoptee to have been conceived and born in 1955 when the law protected me- how SAD that unborn babies are no longer protected in this great land. I feel compelled to share openly on this topic- for I was afforded the blessing of life and adoption even in a circumstance where my birth mother's life was in jeopardy ( she survived my birth and so did I!)! I needed no advocates then, the law protected me. It would be unforgivable of me to be smug and forgetful of the gift of life that I and all of us have been given. I know Jesus would defend "the least of these" and be their voice. Will you speak for them in their silence, for they have no voice nor law to protect their right to life.
I LOVE Ronald Reagan's quote on abortion- Please ponder this and read it twice, how selfish and self- seeking are many of us human beings, when something does not impact us or those we love- many are callous and cold. Pass this quote on to others.
"I've noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born." ~Ronald Reagan, quoted in New York Times, 22 September 1980.

Share with many persons this week and in the weeks to come the urgency of this issue and the right to life! We have an opportunity to vote for candidates who honor the sancity of human life. I do believe we all will be accountable to God and we don't want to be guilty of the sin of OMISSION, neglecting to stand up for the Unborn, for Truth and for the Fatherless, Motherless precious babies who have no voice.
