Alright, about to go on a huge rant right now. Over the past
just few weeks, between social media and the fact I get Amber Alerts on phone
just for the FL area, there seems A LOT going on with babies, children, and
teens, either running away/getting lost, being kidnapped, abused in some way,
or being killed. I just have to ask myself, WHY? What is going on in this
country, the whole world really, but for now let’s just focus on the good old
USA.
First off let me just point out, something that shouldn’t
even have to be said really. Our children ARE NOT AN ACCESSORY, THEY ARE NOT A
BARGAINING CHIP, THEY ARE NOT TO BE USED IN FIGHTS BETWEEN PARENTS, THEY ARE
NOT PUNCHING BAGS, THEY NOT A GROUP OF CELLS TO BE KILLED BEFORE THEY TAKE THEIR
FIRST BREATH OUTSIDE THE WOMB.
If you are a woman who gets pregnant that life growing in
you is indeed a life no matter how tiny he or she might be and if you think
taking that life is your right, your choice, know this, one day when you pass
through heaven’s gates you won’t just be looking in the eyes of the Creator of
that life you ended, you will look into the eyes of that baby. Maybe that child
will be able to ask you “why?” Do you want to tell either God or that sweet
baby that he or she was a mistake, you were too young, too old, didn’t have the
money, just didn’t want him/her, even though there are hundreds, maybe even
thousands of married couples that want a child and can’t have them….. If you
think you can handle that there is no heart in you.
If you are a man or woman who thinks you have the right to
abuse a child or take their life no matter their age or gender you have no love
for anyone except yourself. If you can look into their eyes that are scared and
hurting and continue your actions against them then there is no heart in you.
We are given the life of a child to hold and protect, to
teach and train, to LOVE AND PROTECT, yes I said protect twice. Why, well can
they protect themselves, not yet no, and if you take advantage of that you have
no heart! If you allow a child they will teach you more then you could ever
teach them, they could never change your life for the worse. If you want to
feel wanted and loved no one can do that better (besides Christ) than a child.
When a child holds your hand, wraps their arms around you for a hug, tells you
they love you they are doing so without judgement, without malice. And to think
people can take advantage of that love, that innocence….
