As a lot of you already know yesterday was our one year bloggaversary and to tell you the truth I have not blogged 52 times since we started. I think I stopped in the twenties somewhere oooppppppss. But this year I am making a promise that I will write at least forty blogs in the year. I think that a pretty good jump from last year what do you think? So now on to my real topic for the day.
Today is the 42nd anniversary of the March For Life in Washington D.C. On one hand it is fantastic that millions of people gather together in the bitter cold to stand up for those who don't have a voice of there own. But on the other hand I cant stand the fact the such an atrocious act such as abortion has first been legalized and then has lasted over forty years. You know if you were to take the number deaths from war and compare it to the number of deaths recorded by abortion these are the numbers you would get(obviously these numbers change daily but I'm close).
In our American wars we have lost around 4 million soldiers to death but from abortion we have lost
55,772,015
This is an unbelievable number, I cant even fathom it. The worst part is that these babies don't have a chance. They cant say "let me live" or "this isn't right" or even "you are killing the innocent." They cant say a word and their lives are stripped from them in the blink of an eye. Most people go to prison for killing someone but abortion is fine, you can kill a helpless infant all you want, how it that right? These babies breathe and think and there hearts are beating. So how is this not murder? I don't want to be remembered in history as the time when you could kill your child and many people saw it as acceptable. Is that the legacy that you want to leave? If you are not helping to stop the problem you are fueling the fire, now this doesn't mean you have to go to drastic measures and run around screaming at people about how wrong they are. All you need to do is in conversation stand up for your beliefs, don't be scared that your friends will think you're weird or write you off because if that should happen then they are not your real friend to start with. In all my years I haven't lost any friends over this issue and I have a feeling you wont either . But you can change a life, with just a word here and there you can change some ones whole outlook. Just talk With your friends because a lot of times all people need is a little reassurance. For with every word you can change a heart. If hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world can get together to meet and march for this cause then why cant we just in our normal lives speak up for what we believe? There is no excuse, nothing is holding you back except for yourself. We have already lost over 250 babies to abortion today alone. So lets stop this horrible act and be the voice. Pray for the people that cant do it alone. Start the snowball down the mountain and watch it role.
