We Weep

So fragile and helpless,
No voice protests
As tool advances.
He tries to avoid
What kills all his chances.
His tiny body
Can’t escape
No matter how hard
He twists and turns
In silent scream.
Then suddenly,
It’s done.
Snuffed out,
Dismissed
By a callous heart
And a wave of the hand.


Let the cry begin!
This is a sin!
How in God’s name
Can we not feel shame?
Do they not share blame?
God’s people divided
By political parties
With whom they have sided
When they should have united
With Truth?
Yes! 


For
Tiny nose that will never smell,
Tiny ears that will never hear,
Tiny feet that will never walk,
Tiny eyes that will never see,
Tiny arms that will never hug,
Tiny hands that will never be
Useful,
We weep.

Where’s justice for these
Most helpless of all?
Please turn and heed!
Stop the silent scream call.

Note:  I want to speak comfort and help to those mothers who have had an abortion, for whatever reason.  God forgives, and He heals. Turn to Him and ask forgiveness.  Perhaps the hardest part is forgiving yourself and the grief you now feel.  If you need inner healing, I invite you to contact Living Faith Church at 703-331-3820 and ask for Sally Tomko.

If you’re considering an abortion, don’t!  There are lines of couples waiting to adopt your little one if you are unable to care for him or her yourself.  God bless and heal you in the innermost part of your being – that place hidden to all but you and God.

    1. Amen, Dave. Life gets busy and we each go about our daily lives, so we tend to forget about the tragedy of abortion until it hits us in the face. And we as Christians dare not elect politicians who are in the lap of Planned Parenthood under the guise of "women's health!" What a lie. What a travesty.
