Day in Grace: The 2016 March for Life

The Annual March for Life was a few Sundays ago in Little Rock. My family, and many people from our church try to go every year. Today we got there apart from the others so we went ahead and climbed the capitol stairs so we could watch the people come in. I had no idea what God was about to blow me away with.

We watched as masses of people flooded into the capitol grounds and up the steps. My eyes were welling up with tears as I watched so many Arkansans standing up for life. I believe that God put me on the steps of the capitol before the people came in because He knew that I needed to be encouraged by seeing and hearing all that was being done to stop abortion.

So many awesome speakers spoke at the March for Life. The speakers included Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchsinson, Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton, and Representative Bruce Westerman, not to mention the many heart-wrenching stories that were told by women who have had abortions in the past, as well as other women whose mothers chose life for them.

Psalm 139:13-" For you have formed my inward parts; you covered me in my mother's womb."

Jeremiah 1:5a-"Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; ."

Proverbs 24:10-12- "If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small. Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter. If you say, "Surely we did not know this," does not He who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, does He not know it? And will He not render to each man according to his deeds?"

Matthew 18:10-"Take heed that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of My Father who is in heaven."

Proverbs 31:8-"Open your mouth for the speechless, and the cause of all who are appointed to die."

Deuteronomy 30:19-"I call heaven and earth as witnesses again today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;"

1 John 3:18-"My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth."

The over 11 million babies that have been brutally and heinously killed, I believe, are in heaven, but the blood of those lives are on America's hands, and America will answer to God for what we have allowed for 41 years. Please pray with me that abortion will one day be illegal.

Walking In Grace,
Abby

The masses of people at the March!
