😢😢😢Read if you don’t believe the caption.

The act of ending a human life has been trivialized at the DNC to the point of absurdity, packaged as some sort of liberation for women. But there's no freedom in killing your child.

"Roses Will Bloom Again"
(This is a portion of my personal letter to inmates as part of our church ministry, but I believe it will apply to others out there.)
In the darkest days of my life, I didn't feel as if I'd ever be happy again. In fact, I wished God would just take me from this earth. I was bitter, mad at my Lord, hurt beyond description, isolated and depressed. Over a period of a decade, I worked on healing. My path to healing included:
Finding fellowship. You can't heal in isolation!!
Believing God had not forsaken me, no matter what the circumstances looked like.
Believing God could/would bring good out of all the pain.
Agreeing with the Holy Spirit that FORGIVING was the right thing to do and allowing him to empower me (little by little) to do just that.
Stopping to feel like a VICTIM, which had kept me STUCK far too long.
Praying for the people who betrayed me; admitting that God loves them as much as He loves me.
Of course, there's more, but time/space are limited.
LASTLY, when I was in the darkest night of my soul, I attended a small country church and heard a song, the chorus of which gave me hope. I hope it ministers to you today:

Roses will bloom again, just wait and see
Don't mourn what might have been;
Only God knows how and when that
ROSES WILL BLOOM AGAIN.

Blessings to you. Remember, God NEVER wastes pain.
