God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Ten Reasons Why it is Wrong to Take the Life of Unborn Children:
1. God commanded, 'Thou shalt not murder' (Exodus 20:13).
2. The destruction of conceived human life – whether embryonic, fetal, or viable – is an assault on the unique person-forming work of God.
3. Aborting unborn humans falls under the repeated biblical ban against 'shedding innocent blood.'
4. The Bible frequently expresses the high priority God puts on the protection and provision and vindication of the weakest and most helpless and most victimized members of the community.
5. By judging difficult and even tragic human life as a worse evil than taking life, abortionists contradict the widespread biblical teaching that God loves to show His gracious power through suffering and not just by helping people avoid suffering.
6. It is a sin of presumption to justify abortion by taking comfort in the fact that all these little children will go to heaven or even be given full adult life in the resurrection.
7. The Bible commands us to rescue our neighbor who is being unjustly led away to death.
8. Aborting unborn children falls under Jesus' rebuke of those who spurned children as inconvenient and unworthy of the Savior's attention.
9. It is the right of God the Maker to give and to take human life. It is not our individual right to make this choice.
10. Finally, saving faith in Jesus Christ brings forgiveness of sins and cleansing of conscience and help through life and hope for eternity. Surrounded by such omnipotent love, every follower of Jesus is free from the greed and fear that might lure a person to forsake these truths in order to gain money or avoid reproach.

This is another use of cornmeal that is terribly versatile. One New
England lady told me that she does not remember a dinner in her childhood
without corn bread. And for breakfast it was served broken up in a bowl,
with milk and sugar or maple syrup.
I love it just baked and on the table for dinner.
Place all of the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix up with an
electric mixer. Add the liquids and mix until smooth.
Place in a greased 8x12-inch pan, and bake in a hot oven (400°) for about
30 minutes.
This same recipe can be used for cornmeal muffins or for corn sticks,
baked in a heavy black iron mold.
