BLOOD MONEY

">

The trailer is short, but so to the real point of what abortion truly is about. IF you don't know much about it, or if you do, this film and its message is one we need to share. Abortion, the first degree murdering of our children is being packaged so deceptively and so innocently that even "smart" "Godly" "moral" people are falling into this pit.
I wrote a comment to a dear friend's blog about this fim and this issue earlier today. I am going to quote myself and re-post here what I shared there.

Life, ALL LIFE is so precious to to our Heavenly Father! In so much of scripture He places references to family, how to raise family, how to honor life, in so many other places He exhorts about the spilling of innocent blood, from back in the 10 Commandments to references of offering children to Molech, and forward.I love David's Psalm 139 in which he talks about things that "science" had not yet begun to discover, yet David a shepherd -turned-king , knew.
13 "For You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother’s womb.
14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;[a]
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.
15 My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.

17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How great is the sum of them!
18 If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand;"

The enemy has done a great job of convincing women (and men too) that this evil is "the only way out." The woman in the trailer said it so well when she talked about being willing to kill someone else to save herself. He has us so convinced through our instant gratification/me first/ ME-do-you-hear-me-I-said-ME ME ME- mentality that when "ME" gets in an unexpected situation, "ME" begins to look for rules and loopoles that are the easiest in which "ME" can keep going. America is famous for "short-cuts" and of all we have come up with, pulling this one out of horror stories of history, allusions from scripture, allowing this one to be introduced as anyone's RIGHT is purely sickening, if that isn't an dichotomous mix of terms.
The enemy has been very skillful at slowly introducing this "life style choice", this sin, to modern America, but not too much at one time. He has exploited minimal statistics, maximized the "hopelessness" of many a situation, and every time, he has quietly whispered "Its not 'really ' a baby' yet. OK so it is, but its too small to feel anything, it can't live on its own. What about your college plans? What about your new job? Is it fair that you have to put your plans on hold when you DON'T HAVE TO? Is it fair to your other child(ren) to have this new one come so soon? Is it fair to your husband who works so hard just to put minimal food on the table to have to feed another baby? ITS NOT FAIR TO YOU! What OTHER choice do you have? If you use adoption, everyone will know you gave away your baby. What kind of mother gives away her baby? Single, church -going young woman: Your church family who thinks so highly of you will KNOW what you did. We can fix this. We can hide this." The abortion mills will not steer a woman to an adoption agency; there is no money to be made in sending women away to another facility. I don't think that Planned Parenthood has licensed psychologists or psychiatrists on staff, or licensed social workers who are familiar with the path to adoption, so planning parenthood is a smokescreen for the first degree murder, the slaughter of innocents: by-the-sexually-active-adult consumer of carefully cloaked and disguised murder .
The slippery slope which abortion has wrought is so closely related to the slippery slope which my prayer group has discussed earlier this week: "disruption" of adoptions. THESE TWO LIFE CHOICES which dismantle family are being used by the enemy, causing families to through distorted lenses what the roles of parent and child are. We can not "train up a child in the way he should go" if we allow him to be murdered before he can be trained. We can't "train up a child" if we give him to someone else. OH they may well train him up, but asking God to give our job to someone else is nto the same thing. Our children can not do all that learning of wisdom, seeking of knowledge, from fathers and mothers as scripture instructs, if they are dead. If they are "disrupted" Someone ELSE will do our job for us.
CHURCH, be the CHURCH! Be on the watch for teens heading down a dangerous path. My mom is in a nursing home an dshe never misses a chance to love on her aides and to get to know them. She is often warning them about living with boy friends, unplanned pregnancies, and inviting them to come to church, to come to her room to pray. Does your town have a crisis pregnancy center of any kind? SUPPORT IT! Give your outgrown baby clothes, buy some new ones and donate them, teach a mentoring class, set up babysitting for those moms at your church for the moms who did NOT kill their babies. Abortion prevention is step ONE, not the only step. Set up a parents night out for the adoptive families in your church, interact with them, GETTO KNOW THEM so that when they have problems they are notleft to feel all alone. IF a teen in your church gets preganant or an adoptive family discusses some "Attachment issues" even if you don't know what that MEANS,
LISTEN TO THEM, pray with them (DO not cop out with "I'll pray for you." DO IT! Ask if you may pray with that person right now!!) SO what if you don't understand their issues. I don't understand depression at all. I am a type A go go go eternal optimist person. When a prayerrequest for a person suffering from depression related issues, I take it to the Father. HE understands it all. As we come before the Throne, God promised that the Holy Spirit would interceed and pray for us, even with groanings and utterings. WE , you and me, do not need to understand with empathy everything that another person is experiencing to pray with them. The world is hurting. WE HAVE THE ANSWERS. Let's share them all over the place:to the woman who at some point may admit that she did an abortion, and can't get out from under the condemnation, who says "I know God forgives but I can NOT forgive myself" REACH OUT CHURCH, to families with little children and protect those moms and dads from burn- out and stress which lead to divorce, REACH OUT to adoptive families because they are bound to have some unfamiliar issues. I think musically almost all the time, and a song I sing sometimes which is so powerful is Helen Baylor's DON'T LET ANOTHER WOUNDED SOLDIER DIE. "Come let us pour the oil, ...lets minister healing to them."
Be broken hearted over this movie trailer but don't just sit in your computer corner wringing your hands. IF WE ARE THE BODY WHY AREN'T OUR HANDS REACHING?
Now maybe you know a little bit mroe about another evil in our family -destroying society. WHAT WILL YOU DO?
