Abortion, the heart of the matter

Pro-choice: the right to terminate a pregnancy. Pro-life: wrong and consider murder to terminate a pregnancy or kill a human. What does the Word says about abortion? The six commandments thou shalt not kill Exodus 20:13. There’s no exception in the commandments where as we’re allowed to kill. Even though there are some who will argue to differ according to scripture self-defense, war and capital punishment Nehemiah 4:11-14, Exodus 22:2-3 and Genesis 9:6 are good reasons to take a life. Even to some, sacrifice is not the same as to kill. But I believe strongly Deuteronomy 32:39(NIV) which says, “See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god beside me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.” This to me means even though we are given free choice God is still in control.

Many people believe when comes to abortion it’s wrong regardless if they are religious or not, “thou shalt not kill a baby” and it doesn’t matter if it’s an embryo, or just blood as some believe the excuse for it being okay; as it’s not fully a human being yet, so they believe. Abortion is killing, and there’s no way to sugar coat that fact. Murder, killing equals death regardless of the reasons behind it.

Whenever one thinks of abortion we see an innocent angelic babies. We never allow our vision to clearly see the baby as a human being. The very innoncent baby could be thief, murderer, pimp, prostitutes, drug traffickers, an addict, molester, rapist, racist all the evil we are horrified about even to wanting them killed for it. We love the all animal cubs because it’s innocent and harmless until it grows into a man-eater then we’re afraid and hunt and kill them. I’ll be the devil’s advocate under these circumstances to all those who opposes abortion. When these angelic babies grows up you’re the first to cry out kill them for killing your loved ones or hurt you in some way. You hypocrites go to the jails, hospitals, foster homes, adoption agencies, the streets with the homeless, countries where there’s poverty, diseases, no water, and destruction and help those who are also in need of your deliverance and mercy. Feed the hungry, cloth the naked, give shelter to the homeless. Go to the jails, hospitals, in your own neighborhoods, highways and byways, wherever there’s a sense of hopelessness and stop life abortions( the evil people as they are now recognized as, the forgotten with mentally illness, outcasts of society).

I sincerely believe that abortion should not be used as a form of contraceptive and prevention is better that cure, especially with all the contraceptives available today, no excuses. Yes, accident do happen, but still remember no one goes before God on judgement day on your behalf for your actions in life beside yourself. Your decision to abort is like everything in life, your freedom to choose and also to expect and except the consequence. The consequences is not just what happens when you die, like going to hell or heaven. Some after having an abortion feel like they are cursed, could never get pregnant again or have a child that has complications such physical or mental challenges.

We must learn to show compassion cause not everyone who has an abortion is a baby killer and a murderer. These are the people the activists against abortion over looks, like the ones the ultrasound shows needs to be terminated, or the ones for health as well as that of the unborn fetus would be in jeopardy. And let us not forget that there are people who are thorn when comes to having an abortion, but have no other choice and mentally it breaks them or the ones who adamantly thought it was a good idea and regret it for the rest of their lives.

Like the giving or taking of blood or organs no one should have the rights to tell another what they can an can’t do with their body. Let the judgement be that of the Lord’s, for only he is the reader of hearts and minds. And for those who doesn’t believe in God pray for them.

Conflicted soul

Take my life Lord and consecrate it unto you. For you are my everything as Barry White said in his song, “you’re the first, the last, my everything.” I will not put anything on a pedestal that the devil can tear-down and use to destroy me like money, material things or others. My mind, body and soul cries out for you Lord.

Scriptures declares you are my salvation, present help in times of trouble, my joy and peace the forever lover of my soul. My comforter, shepherd guide, my friend. Your love for me a sinner passes all understanding. There are times when I am not worthy of your forgiveness, love, compassion, understanding, patience and trust, cause I’ve got problems extending the same to others as you continue for me.

Lord I’m bitter, resentful and a hater cause they hurt me so bad and I condemn all to hell. I can’t trust, I’m fearful so fearful of everthing and everyone. “No mercy in me I did my crying, Lord please, loose me.” I am prejudice, judge and condemn, and very selfish towards others yet I say I love you. If I had powers I would hurt the people who hurt me.

Thank you Lord for holding me back and pulling me out of the things that would of lead me down the wrong path. Psalm 122:1 I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the house of the Lord. You house Lord, has become the field for me the lost sheep to return and call home where I am properly guided, protected and fed my Shepherd. You alone Lord, can change me

Not for fame, all for His will and glory “Mary”

Some asked why wasn’t Mary the mother of Jesus given recognition of importance, but she did and is one of the most important woman of the Bible after all she is the mother of Jesus. It is really not about her fame. The true conflict is should we be praying to her? Yes, because just like Christ our intercessor so is the blessed Mother. It all started in Luke 1:27-28 A virgin named Mary who was engaged to a man named Joseph a descendant of David. The angel went to her and said,”Greetings you are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” Jesus himself before he died on the cross John 19:25-29 “Woman, behold your son!” And to his disciple, Behold your mother.

It was never about Mary or the other main characters of the Bible, but about the most High God. Every true servant understands this. Abraham was God’s friend, David a man after his own heart. Just to name a few main characters of the Bible.

When I think of Mary and what she said yes to, as a mother myself I can’t help of think what it was like for her to be pregnant with the son of God. Mary must had angels watching and guarding her every move even ministering to her for whatever she needed. I imagined Mary glowing in grace, and moving in the glory of God. This pregnancy must have changed everything about Mary and not just her life. She probably had dreams and visions of the future, was able to heal people, after all she had her cousin Elizabeth baby leap in her womb. Where ever she went there must of been so kind of miracles, but was kept secret.

If Moses went up to a mountain and spoke to God in Exodus 3, 4 and 34:29-35 Was given the ability to perform miracles to help the Israelites and after coming down the mountain his face was radiant that it frighten the Israelites. Moses spoke to the Lord and all this happened to him I could just imagine what was happening to Mary with the seed of God growing in her. This is something for everyone to think about. Yes it was all about Jesus, but to see or hear of Mary is like Jesus said, to see me is to see the father together we are one. The disciples are also important just as the followers of them today.

The light of God

Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” This is telling us that we are representing the most High God. What light do we have that is ours to shine? Genesis 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. So the image of God is the light in us that we must shine even thou we are sinners.

The world shines a light on us with an expectations and a demands we cannot live up to and one err and the light is turned off. The light of the world has a switch that is turned on and off. The light of God that shines through us without any expectations or demands draws people in with truth and righteousness and has no switch, it just keeps shine brighter once ignited by God. The enemy tries its best to turn it off such a light in you, but can only dim it, never completely turn it off. Only the light of God can out shine even light itself, it’s a light beyond any other.

The light that shines on you ( the world’s light) can never be compared to the light that shines through and on you, the light of God. When God shines a light on you people can’t help, but notice you. And when his light is within and on you everything you do and says draws a multitude of people to you. The light is not shining to glorify you, even though some people(servants of God) get caught up in themselves forgetting form where their light originated.

I have Dyslexia

Yes I have Dyslexia. I was never able to understand why as a child I had learning disabilities. I always thought it was because I was just born dum, stupid. I thought to myself I will never learn. No matter how much I studied, read or write I will always have to be helped and corrected. My siblings use to laugh at me when I’d tried really hard and studied for hours and still failed the exams. Math, music, reading and comprehension was the worst for me. I’ve spent my entire life with Dyslexia without ever getting help because I was never diagnosed. Can’t believe at the age of fifty-three it finally came to light why I have such difficulties keeping up with writing my blog and needing my daughter to edit it for me all the time, if you’ve read my blog “I’ve been told”

I never like reading, but the Bible was and is the only book I was able to read and can comprehend. The version that was considered most difficult to understand for many the King James which was given to me by my granny as a child. With words like thou, hath, cometh and more I remembered my sister complaining she couldn’t understand it and she was always smarter than I after all she’s one year older.

With acknowledgement of my condition, this year I’m determine not to allow Dyslexia to prevent me blogging just as I am. This is the only way for me to let go and let God preform a good work in me. I want to practice what I have to preach. Not my will but God’s will be done through and within me. Anyone who’s wondering why I write like I do mistakes and all, this is the reason.
