The Abortion Cost during the New Year.

As we celebrate the new year, I am concerned that many women that have had abortions are feeling especially lonely, guilty and empty during this holiday season. They must start a new year again with the terrible decision that they made. They will never hear the baby cry, walk, talk and grow. They must deal with this decision and the price it carries often times for their entire lives.

We as people should not condemn or shun these women out of our lives. This is the time we should be spending time with them, loving them, consoling and listening to them. They must deal with the guilt, shame and emptiness day in and day out. We must convey the message that God loves them and we must show his love to them. Often they feel they committed the unforgivable crime and are doomed to live on this earth with the burden that they caused the death of their child.

God forgives all if we turn to him in true repentance and sorrow. We must as his children show mercy and love as he shows love to us. It is up for us to decide to show the love and forgiveness that God has given us.
