Pro aborts say that they want abortion to be “safe, legal, and rare.” Pro-lifers vehemently disagree. Abortion, pro-lifers say, can never be safe, certainly not to the child. Nor, they claim, are they safe for the mother, citing the growing literature, demonstrating that even the so-called “medically safe” abortion is dangerous to the mother. Abortion, they vigorously contend, cannot be legal. It is, they assert, murder and contrary to the nation’s charter commitment that all human beings are equal and entitled to the inalienable right to life. No court and no legislature can change that. Finally, abortion, they state, will never be rare, so long as it is promoted as a constitutional right. They maintain that women will never be deterred from killing “unwanted” children unless and until abortion is once again condemned by civil society as a morally reprehensible homicide.

"THE LORD'S BASEBALL GAME"
 
         
Freddy and the Lord stood by to observe a baseball
game.
The Lord's team was playing Satan's team.
The Lord's team was at bat, the score was tied zero to
zero,
and it was the bottom of the 9th inning with two
outs. They
continued to watch as a batter stepped up to the plate
named 'Love.'
 
Love swung at the first pitch and hit a single,
because "Love never fails."
 
The next batter was named Faith, who also got a single
because Faith works with Love.
 
The next batter up was named Godly Wisdom. Satan wound
up and threw the first pitch.
 
Godly Wisdom looked it over and let it pass: Ball
one. Three more pitches and Godly Wisdom walked
because he never swings at what Satan throws.
 
The bases were now loaded. The Lord then turned to
Freddy and told him He was now going to bring in His
starplayer. Up to the plate stepped Grace. Freddy
said, "He sure doesn't look like much!"
 
Satan's whole team relaxed when they saw Grace.
 
Thinking he had won the game, Satan wound up and fired
his first pitch. To the shock of everyone, Grace hit
the ball harder than anyone had ever seen! But Satan
was not worried; his center fielder let very few get
by.
 
He went up for the ball, but it went right through his
glove, hit him on the head and sent him crashing on
the ground;  the roaring crowds went wild as the ball
continued over the fence . . . for a home run!
 
The Lord's team won!
 
The Lord then asked Freddy if he knew why Love, Faith
and Godly Wisdom could get on base but couldn't win
the game. Freddy answered that he didn't know why.
 
The Lord explained, "If your love, faith and wisdom
had won the game, you would think you had done it by
yourself. Love, Faith and Wisdom will get you on base
but only My Grace can get you Home:
 
For by Grace are you saved, it is a gift of God; not
of works, lest any man should boast." Ephestians 2:8-9
 

Psalm 84:11, "For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will
He withhold from those who walk uprightly."
 
    
 
"WHERE IS GOD?"
 
 
He was just a little boy, on a week's first day.
He was wandering home from Sunday School, and dawdling on the way.
He scuffed his shoes into the grass; he found a caterpillar.
He found a fluffy milkweed pod, and blew out all the "filler".
 
A bird's nest in a tree overhead, so wisely placed on high,
Was just another wonder that caught his eager eye.
A neighbor watched his zig zag course, and hailed him from the lawn,
Asked him where he'd been that day and what was going on.
 
"I've been to Bible School," he said and turned a piece of sod.
He picked up a wiggly worm replying, "I've learned a lot of God."
"M'm very fine way," the neighbor said, "for a boy to spend his time."
"If you'll tell me where God is, I'll give you a brand new dime."
 
Quick as a flash the answer came! Nor were his accents faint.
"I'll give you a dollar, Mister, if you can tell me where God ain't."
 
 
There are two ways of spreading light,
to be the candle or be the mirror
that reflects it.
 
Have a Blessed Day
Dave and Barbara
