 In you our fathers put their trust;
they trusted and you delivered them.
(Psalm 22:4)
This year, there will be 3.1 million unplanned pregnancies in the U.S.
Every one of those babies has a father.
Guys who face an unplanned pregnancy have special concerns. If a guy tells you his partner is pregnant and he didn’t plan for her to be, here are some ways you can be a friend and address these particular needs: 
-
The pregnancy. Have him make sure his partner is actually pregnant.
-
His paternity. Make sure he verifies that he is the father.
-
His partner. Encourage him to support his partner.
-
His child. Encourage him to take responsibility for his child.
-
His options. Explain his options thoroughly. Give him complete information.
-
His future. Point out the physical, emotional, and relational dangers of abortion – both to his partner and him.
When you support a guy who faces an unplanned pregnancy, you’re not only helping him. You’re also helping his partner … and his child.
 Loving Father,
Help me be a friend to a guy
who faces an unplanned pregnancy.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
