The Body Attached at the Cord

Pro-choice or pro-life? And why?

Well, if you chose pro-choice, you might have some good reasons. I mean, it's your body, shouldn't you do what you want with it? It's only tissue inside of me, what's the big deal if I get rid of it? It's not like I was going to keep a baby, so why bring one into this world if I don't want the kid?

Honestly, I love being able to choose what I do with my own body. If I wanna get piercings, I will get piercings (if I have money). If I wanna get a tattoo or two, I will get the tattoo (if I have money). If I choose to bruise myself, don't stop me. If I choose to cut myself, don't get in the way. And the list goes on and on.

So, of course you can do whatever you want with your body! Some aren't bad (piercings and tattoos) if not used for bad reasons and some are harmful (bruising and cutting) and aren't the best things for you to do. But it is your body and you can do whatever you want.

I am pro-life and I will use the three examples of why some people are pro-choice to explain why.

First of all, abortion has nothing to do with you physically. Abortion has to do with the baby inside of you. I mean, you aint killing yourself, are you? No. You are killing the person inside of you.

Second, if you want to say that the organism inside you is a tissue, then a heartbeat means nothing to you. At three weeks, the heart is beating for the baby inside the womb. This is the stage that the baby starts developing different parts of the body. How does a tissue start having a heartbeat and human parts? It's only tissue, right? It is so much more than tissue.

Third, there are more options after birth. You can keep the baby if you want, but there is the option of putting the child up for adoption. Or even foster care. So, don't make the excuse of not wanting to keep the baby. You don't have to after you give birth to the precious child.

Now, I know that a girl can get pregnant in different circumstances. Sometimes it is not just consensual sex. Sometimes a girl could have been raped or some other form of disgusting perverted sexual intercourse. And it is sad when it happens and the girl has to suffer for it. I do understand that there are situations where it was not the girl's fault that she got pregnant.

Even so, why end a life just because yours was messed with? Yeah, it was not your fault that you got pregnant, but you are pregnant. You have a baby inside of you. What good and logical reason do you have for killing a human being? Because God could have stopped the pregnancy if He wanted, but He didn't for a reason. Don't mess with God's precious child that he forms inside of you just because you were violated. Be the bigger person and have the child and put them up for adoption if you don't want them.

One of my favorite passages of the Bible is Psalm 139. It is one of the most deep and encouraging passages I have ever read in the Bible. It talks about how God knows us. He loves us. He is there whenever we need Him. It talks about all His great qualities pretty much. I want to share a few of the verses from this passage for you guys.

Psalm 139:13-16
-For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
you works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
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.
Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

I don't know about you, but that is pretty powerful right there. I mean, God created each and every one of us and "knit" us together in the womb. We were not hidden from God for one second, even though our parents were not able to see us. He saw us before we were completely formed! Oh my gosh! That's so amazing to think about! He saw us for what and who we were: a HUMAN BEING. Now, this next part is what really gets me and gets a knot stuck in my throat. "All the days ordained for mr were written in your book before one of them came to be." Guys! God planned out the lives of each and every one of us while we were still a fetus, embryo, etc. and we are down here on earth not thinking about what our baby could be! God cares so much about that baby that He planned the life of the child before we even gave one thought about them. That shows how much God cares for that "tissue" with a beating heart and functioning organs and body parts.

So, why would we choose to be pro-choice after knowing all that information? Why would we call that organism inside of us a tissue after reading the facts about them? Why would we want to get rid of something that is worthless to us when it is so precious to God?

Think about that next time you say you are pro-choice. And defend the defenseless next time you are up against someone that announces that they are pro-choice. Speak up for the babies that can't defend themselves.

I am pro-life!

God bless!!
