Pro-Life Encouragement
The Lord’s gift to mothers, children, is sovereign and intentional. His gift is always rooted in faith, love for us, and is never a mistake. Here are some quotes that, I hope, will encourage you. Quotes that will remind in you to take actions of care, protection, and advocacy for all.
“The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only object of good government.” – Thomas Jefferson
In the modern day United States, the topic of abortion has become, and is continuing to be, exceedingly contentious. Even a sheer mention of the topic brings about confrontation and conflict. However, in spite of this, we should not remain silent when advocating for the life and sanctity of children. Now is the time to bring darkness into the light, advocate for the helpless and innocent, and ensure their safety.
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born, I set you apart.” – Jeremiah 1:5
Every child receives The Lord’s imprint. God has set each and every child apart to be beautifully and uniquely designed. Each child has been destined for their first steps, first breaths, and first experiences. An unplanned pregnancy can be frightening. However, the joy and unique plan the Lord has set forth for the child is something no one can imagine. The Lord’s sovereignty is a wonderful mystery that is unpredictable. As a result, we can never know who that child will become.
Just A Glance
Billy Graham’s words show the value of all life, and how all people are created equal. Each and every human, from conception to end of life, has dignity, worth, and imprints of the Lord’s touch on them. The Lord has given humans the gift of life itself. And with life comes joys and accomplishments that cannot be experienced if that gift is taken away before it has even started. The right to life is something that everyone, no matter their status, finances, or life-situation, has.
A simple glance of a child in the womb can show just how innocent and wonderful children are. Seeing what the Lord has placed within and seeing the life that is so young, innocent, and precious can change the world.
Protect The Innocent
The following are some Bible verses and quotes from additional individuals who share the call to protect the innocent. These individuals are fearlessly going forth as warriors of Christ. The have a bold desire to help people understand the priceless value of children, especially the unborn. You may find yourself in an unplanned pregnancy. Or there may be hesitations due to extraneous circumstances. In any case, take a moment to read these quotes and ponder, even for a moment, just how valuable life is. And ultimately, what can come of a child’s life after it is given the chance to live, grow, and thrive.
“Every child born into the world is a new thought of God, an ever-fresh and radiant possibility.” – Kate Douglas Wiggin, American author, educator and composer.
“The child is the beauty of God present in the world, that greatest gift to a family.” – Mother Teresa
“We are called to love our neighbors as ourselves, and that includes unborn children who are our most defenseless neighbors.” – Russell Moore, American theologian, ethicist and preacher.
“Every child conceived in the womb has the right to life, and that right is not subject to negotiation.” – Tony Perkins, American Politician and Baptist Preacher.
Speak Loud, Speak Graciously
The innocent must be remembered, protected, and kept in the forefront of our minds across the world. It is of equal importance that grace, love, and compassion are shown to those who are in doubt, have hesitation, or are considering termination.
“Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all who are destitute.” – Proverbs 31:8
Children, and their experiences, are a God-ordained gift.
A baby’s first breath, a toddler’s first steps, a child’s first taste of a lemon. These are only a few of the many things children will experience. And they are among the proudest and most memorable moments that a parent can have with their child. The creation of such complex instincts, aspirations, and responses are a testament to The Lord’s imprint on children.
May the Lord’s words and scripture echo throughout any decision that may be at hand, and may the gift of life be chosen, so that the experience and joy of children may be had by all.
