Tough Topic Tuesday - Abortion and Christianity (yep...we are going there today)

God Is Within Her - a women’s devotional podcast - A podcast by Valarie Reynolds

Hey friends! In light of things going on specifically right now with the Supreme Court and Roe vs. Wade, abortion is a topic that is in our faces every single day. And I know this is a tough topic to cover. I know this is a topic that easily can offend people. So before you push play, I really want you to stop and pray before receiving these words.  Pray for opened ears and softened hearts. Ask God to keep our offense, pride, even shame or guilt and anything else that can potentially get in the way of learning out of our minds. Also know, I can't answer every "what if" question. I know there are some difficult situations that arise and complications that make decisions even more difficult to make. I am in no way ignoring those. If you have ever faced or ever do face those unspeaking scenarios, I want you to know that God still loves you. Take your decision to Him. Not social media. Not politics. Take it to Him. It's between you and Him. Today's episode is not to argue who is right and all of the what-if scenarios. Today's episode is meant to dive into the word of God to see how God views unborn life. And my prayer is, once you understand God's view on unborn life, you will begin to have a clearer view of God's will that isn't distorted by the world. My views on abortion have changed over the years. And that is what I am feeling called to do. We get throw into our faces "This is right!" "No, this is right!" yet Christians hardly ever actually TEACH on WHY many of them are pro-life. So that is my job today. It's not to shame you. It's not to condemn you. It's not to answer all of the unspeakable scenarios that could even lead up to consider abortion as an option. It's not to claim that you're not a Christian if you view things differently than me.It's to reveal the truth of the value of unborn life, which we know as Christians, can only be found in the Word of God. What does it ACTUALLY say?? Then, take what you learn. Ponder it. Pray to God. Ask Him to convict your heart if there is conviction to be had. And let God to the molding and shaping.
