Reasons for Abortion

Abortion is Wrong Genesis 1:27 Job 33:4 Isaiah 44:24 Psalms 127:3 Proverbs 24:11-12 Genesis 9:6 Proverbs 6:16-17

A child in its mother’s womb has: its own blood supply its own blood type It is a living human being. Before an abortion…something is living. After an abortion…something is dead.

The End of the Innocent Silent cries, Little eyes, Never to see the light. Tiny toes, A pudgy nose, A babe quivers in fright. Little lips, Never to speak, Never to make a noise.

Tiny ears, Never to hear, His mother say “Abortion’s my choice.” Tiny hands, Never to play, Never to make and mold. Tiny smiles, Never seen, A child no one will hold. A tiny heart, Never to love,

A heart that steadily beats. A tiny baby, Never to see, The mother it will not meet. An innocent baby, A sweet little boy, A child so perfect in form. An innocent baby, A sweet little girl, A child that will never be born.

A tiny body, A mind, heart, and soul, Ripped so painfully apart. A gift from God, A precious life, Never given the chance to start. Jessica D. Scott (age 15)
