not yet crawled

Since the birth of America, we have fought for freedom and equality: from gaining freedom from Britain, to equality, no matter what the color of your skin is. Even now Americans fight for freedom, not only in this great country but all over the world. I like to think that we do this simply because every human being has the right to live their life to the fullest.   Mississippi was granted the chance to extend that right, not to someone outside of America, but to ones that are yet to set foot on American soil. Maya Angelou writes “Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.” Imagine if you were never given that right. What if people said that you were not a human being and basic human rights were not extended to you? Most of us can’t even fathom it.
People are so caught up in their own agendas worrying about not having birth control, IVF or IUDS. We completely missed the most important person in this equation. No not you, but the unborn child. And what shocks me even more is that Pro-lifers and even Christians alike  were not defending this initiative. Being Pro-life, this is the core foundation of our belief. That human life begins at conception. 

Jeremiah 1:5

"I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations."

Psalm 139:13-14

¹³ For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. ¹⁴ I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful (abbr)

As Christians, believing in God’s word, this should not have been an issue. God created you so delicately and with so much care and intelligent design. Why would we be so careless about God’s gift?  Is it too much to ask to be a voice for the voiceless?  To stand for those who have not yet crawled and fight for those that can’t defend themselves?  - Nathan Reed

thoughts on abortion... part 1

 I don't consider myself a fiesty person but when it comes to the subject of abortion I find myself getting pretty riled up so I try to stay away from the political arguments but for the sake of "Inciative 26 of Mississippi" I am going to share my thoughts.

Next week in Mississippi we have a chance to overturn abortion and I am thrilled!! I see lots of post on facebook that irritates me. If you don't know what the personhood amendment is please look it up. It irritates me that so many people are saying they are voting "no" because they think it's going to take away birth control. Please get your facts straight before you go posting your opinion. They aren't going to outlaw the pill. This amendment is cleary to state that life begins at conception. Feel free to go to yeson26.net see what amendment 26 will cover. If you are prolife it is your duty to vote YES!

In Genesis when Cain killed Abel, God heard  Abel's blood crying out from the ground. Abel’s blood was crying out giving testimony, bearing witness, to his murder.  How much more does God here the cries of the innocent, the unborn. Proverbs 6:17 says that God hates the shedding on innocent blood. What is more innocent that a child? Nothing.

Some of you would say "What about incest or rape" Less than 1% of abortions occur because an act of rape of incest. "What about birth defects" This one sickens me. What is a "defect" anyway? I was born with a "defect"some would say but me nor my family see it that way. We are all made in the image of God and I'm pretty sure God himself doesn't have a defect so why would any of us? To me a "defect" is a chance to prove that our God is bigger than any obstacle that is thrown in our path. God's power is revealed the greatest through weakness his glory shines through inperfections. "Birth defects" account for less than 6% of abortions. I believe that 100% of the unborn deserve a chance not just the other 96%.

Bottom line is Iniciative 26 is simply to state that life begins at conception. If you are prolife it is your duty to vote YES!! Please don't listen to the lies of the abortion industry. They are so misconcevieng. If you don't believe me google Margaret Sanger. VOTE YES & PROTECT LIFE!!!

 

Randomness of me:)

* I am a neat freak. I absolutely can't go to sleep if there are dishes in the sink. I think I may have a small form of OCD.
* I am scared of the Wizard of Oz.. All of it.. well besides Todo. The witch, the yellow brick road,  the tornado, the monkeys and just about everything else freak me out!!
* Alabama is my favorite state, mainly because its where I call home and it is where God shaped and molded me into who I am today.
* Fried pickles with ranch dressing are the BEST
* When I have a bad day I still want my mom. She alway seems to know what to say. I hope and pray Asher will do the same with me.
* I was born in Wise, Va (a very small town) I moved to Alabama when I was 18 months old. We came on a Greyhound bus with 8 (trash) bags and $40. It amazes me that my parents moved that far away from everything they had ever known just to give me a better life. That is sacrifice.
* When I was 12 I was chased on my bicycle by an Emu (its an animal that looks very similar to an ostrich). Needless to never rode my bicycle again. Lol!
* I love the 60's. I would love to have been at Woodstock to see Joe Cocker bust out with "Have a little help from my friend'. I sometimes dream of braiding my hair grabbing an acoustic guitar and busting out some Fleetwood Mac on a street somewhere.
* Pro life to the core. I believe life begins at conception.
* My Jordan Knight, New Kids on the Block doll got stolen at my 7th birthday party. I still to this day try and figure out which one of my "friends" took it. haha! I am still bitter about it. Can you tell?
