 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Psalm 139:13-14
From a genuine letter to a friend considering abortion
My dear friend,
There is much I don’t know. But I know two things for certain –
1. God has a purpose for every event in our lives
2. God has a purpose for the child you carry
 You may fear the outcome of your pregnancy. You may not think you will be able to care for this precious life. But maybe the purpose for your pregnancy is to bring you closer to God. Maybe the purpose for your child is to become someone’s son or daughter – and grow into a doctor, construction worker, business owner, lawyer, teacher or pastor.
You may think abortion is an easy fix. But that fix could thwart the powerful purpose for this child. Why not choose adoption instead?
Your child has a purpose. The choice for it to be fulfilled is in your hands.
This is what God wants you to know before you have an abortion:
I created your child’s inmost being; I knit your child together in your womb. Your child is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:13-14).
The life of a human being is worth every effort to allow it to be born.
Oh God our Creator,
Move in the life of this pregnant women, and others like her, to not choose the easy way. Let her be a part of Your incredible plan – and choose life.
Amen.
