Fight for Life

When many think of a hero, they tend to think of those in shining silver armor ready to march on to a battlefield as if we were engaged in a medieval time warp. The fact of the matter is that there are the unseen and unfortunately UNAMED heroes of the present. The fight for life is one that has been difficult to even gain little steps towards success, being that abortion is on the rise and young mothers are aborting their child as late as 9 MONTHS.

This is my frustarating ongoing activity.

In the famous words of Dr. Suess, "a persons a person- no matter how small", I find it frightening that children all across our nation and elsewhere are being aborted as late as 9 months, basically the woman would have to give birth and then shortly after the "doctor" would kill the child. These children do not have a voice, so many others have gathered up the torch to be the voice of the unborn. Women do have a choice , that is a well known fact, but many fail to see that the child inside the womb fails to have a choice. Even though that child is just as much a human life they lack the capability to choose whether they live or die.

Martin Luther King Jr. said in his famous letter from Birmingham jail spoke about how every person is an extremist, but many have to choose what they will be extremists for- love or hate. That is the struggle in all man kind is to dig into our souls and find the strength to fight for love, fight for those who are unable to speak, and in turn fighting for Jesus Christ himself. 
The battle is on- and I will not stop- nor slow down.
