Abortion

“Lord, you know everything I do…..

You created every part of me;

you put me together in my mother’s womb.”

This baby reaches out its hand, grasping the doctor’s finger,

as if to say thank you.
This operation performed on this infant,

in the womb, was successful.
This child was later born healthy.

“Lord, you know everything I do…..
You created every part of me;
you put me together in my mother’s womb.”

This baby was born too early, but she lived.

“I praise you because you are to be feared;
all you do is strange and wonderful.
I know it with all my heart.

When my bones were being formed,
carefully put together in my mother’s womb,
when I was growing there in secret, you knew that I was there -
You saw me before I was born.

The days allotted to me had all been recorded in your book,
Before any of them ever began.”

Psalm 139
