Abortion Issue

Deeply, deeply touched by this blog post on Patheos.  My heart breaks for her pain and I praise her courage.  Self-forgiveness is the hardest forgiveness which is one of the points I try to make when talking about abortion.  This is the position we should be taking, not the hateful, unforgiving stances.  We need to convert men to understanding the pain that is caused because women do not get pregnant alone.  Read the comments too, the Holy Spirit is at work and the Body of Christ is embracing the blogger!http://www.patheos.com/blogs/thecrescat/2012/05/fifteen-years-later-and-silent-no-more.html?LLM=peskiw@roadrunner.com

Wife, mother, blogger, Catholic ministry. I love to garden even when it goes wrong. Same with writing (and we know it can go wrong.) Believing that God is present in all of it.

  1. Good Morning, Annette! Yes, that was a touching article, and it was so good to see the support she received. I didn’t read all of the comments, but the ones I did read were supportive. Breath of fresh air from the usual vitriol we see on the web.
