Speak Up

The things I saw beggar description…The visual evidence and the verbal testimony of starvation, cruelty and bestiality were…overpowering…I made the visit deliberately in order to be in a position to give first-hand evidence of these things if ever, in the future, there develops a tendency to charge these allegations merely to ‘propaganda.’

— General Dwight D. Eisenhower, April 15, 1945, letter to General George C. Marshall following the liberation of Ohrdruf, a subcamp of Buchenwald

I search for words to describe how I feel about Planned Parenthood aborting children in such a way that their reusable parts aren't crushed, and disgust, evil abhorrent, depraved come to mind.  How did this country get a line of reasoning that wouldn't offend Hitler?    Now that these words have come out of the mouths of Planned Parenthood doctors have been recorded and taped, I've read that there are those who want to attack the organization that filmed it in order to discredit them.  They may indeed find fault, but there's no way to take back what was said.  

My father saw the Nazi death camps after they were liberated, and the horror of what he saw never left him.  Colonel Eisenhower wanted his army to bear witness less history forget it and repeat it.  So should we also regarding our country's legal genocide of the unborn bear witness. 

We have heard what we have heard and we have seen what we have seen.   We must speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.  

Let The Children Come

Matthew 19:14 King James Version (KJV)

14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

Psalm 139:15-16 New International Version (NIV)

15 My frame was not hidden from you

    when I was made in the secret place,

    when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.

16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;

    all the days ordained for me were written in your book

    before one of them came to be.

Isaiah 64:8 King James Version (KJV)

8 But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.

The images of these two children always make me pause and sometimes make me cry.  It's not right that children should be called upon to be so brave but still they are; because man is intent on doing evil; and always the children suffer.  I've heard it said that because of abortion the most dangerous place for a child to be is in his mother's womb; and I'm afraid that it may be true.  We demand a choice that was never ours to make; and in doing so we are killing our own children, God's own children.  Consider the value of a life and seek to honor, cherish and protect it.  It is what Jesus would do.
