Has anyone here had a abortion?

The Bible says that you should follow the law of the land. Which made me think it was okay to have an abortion. I am here to tell you the law in the USA states it is legal. But is it right? In my opinion it should not be used as a form of birth control. Crying or Very sad

I do feel there are valid reasons to have one. For instance if it is going to put the mothers life at risk. Each case should be carefully inspected before it is done.

I personally have had an abortion. I was 27 divorced and my x-husband had tricked me into letting him have my 2 sons. I got pregnant with another man who one did not want another child and I was afraid that because the father was of another race that my X-husband would keep me from seeing my sons. My closest friend talked me into the abortion due to my situtation. At the moment it was done, I knew that it was wrong. I could not handle it. For several years, getting remarried and having 2 bueatiful daughters, I still had trouble forgiving myself. This guilt ran my life. I knew that if I asked God he would forgive me, but how do you forgive yourself. I talked to therapist (they asked me how I could do it), church leaders (They said have faith), These answers were not good enough, they did not help.

I prayed and prayed and prayed, and finally God put a lady in my path to help. Her name was Barbara and I told her my story. She told me to go into a quite place and hold this baby, talk to it and name it, Which I named her Sonia, and after I have spent time with her and could really feel her then I needed to hand her over to God. I did all of these things she suggested, understand I was willing to try anything. At the moment I handed her to God I felt such a sense of peace. I knew that it worked and that Barbara was sent by God to help me. God does hear all of us but you have to not only ask you have to seek and then knock. He will help us all.

My biggest concern is what Abortion has done to us as a society. It has made us hard hearted. If you don't want something just throw it away. What are we teaching are children? Not to take responsability for are actions but to delete the problems in there lives. The only person that can save anyone is you and your faith of God through the name of Jesus Christ. Yes Abortion is legal and we need to make sure that we are able and aware of what we are doing. You need to do what you feel is right not for anybody else. If you don't want to do this, DON'T ever let anyone talk you into it. You have to live with what you do!!!!!
God bless you all.
I hope my story helps anyone in the same situtation.

I Personally have been with child 8 times. I have 4 children, 3 misscarriages and the one abortion. When I got pregnant the first time I had a misscarriage. Everyone told me that God knew I wasn't ready to have a child. In fact I was pregnant with twins and only lost one. I didn't find this out at the time but 3 months later. The doctor didn't tell me because he thought the stress of lossing the one might result in the loss of the other.

I don't really think that God gives a devine abortion. If he did that then wouldn't he do that for all of those people who don't want children and what about the ones who want them and can't carry them full term. Are we really going to say that God won't give them one for some reason and gives all these other people children who don't want them. I don't think so. I think the human race has played a large roll in this problem. The chemical we breath in and comsume into our bodies. I think our bodies are more complicated than we will ever know and there could be a number of reasons to loose a child. We have to remember that God is a loving God not a God of anger and spite.

On the other note I guess that hardheartness had to come first and continues to get worse and worse. Man twist Gods laws and makes bad things okay.

Thanks for that. But I did, I listened to people and not to God. I followed humans and not the laws of God. What I did was wrong and I can justify it in many ways but it is still wrong. I know that God has forgiven me and I have come to peace within myself. It is not so much the act of abortion as it is not following God and letting immoral people take power in my life. I still have a long way to go but I will get there.

I don't mean to be a simpleton, or come off as condescending, but it seems like "Thou Shalt Not Murder" covers it?

Open your heart and minds and you can know the truth of right and wrong. In my heart I knew it was wrong.

Other people may not think it is wrong and the are right it is for them

you are wrong I had the abortion because I listened to others. I felt it wrong inside me. Everyone around me said I had done nothing wrong. It really had nothing to do with anyone but me, the guilt consumed me. I think that if you have faith God will let you know when you have done wrong.

I grew up in Nashville Tennessee and I went to church when my parents wern't fighting. Which was a few times a year. My mother was a nurse and father was a studio musician. Money was as a God in this house. I don't remember any talk about abortion in church. Although, when I was a child it was not a common use of birth control like it is today.

I believe that culture in this day and age has changed alot for example today everything is sexual or violence. These are the things we are teaching our children. We as a culture justify everything we do. Like abortion it is not wrong because it does not have a heartbeat yet or it can't live outside the womb so it is not murder. Does that really ring true in your heart. It doesn't in mine not anymore.

I hate to say it but a lie is still a lie. You can't justify it out of being a lie. You can justify why you lied but never out of it being a lie.

I would never tell someone that abortion is wrong for them because they are not me. The more I dig in to how to gain my salvation the more I see how wrong I was in the past.

My salvation is going to be based on how and what I believe. Everyone in the world is going to be judged on how and what they believe. But fore the most part I am trying to follow the 10 commandments.
