In Memoriam. For the Unborn.

I am grieving. For babies that never made it to birth. It was 2001. I was walking around, praying. I stepped into a small chapel, knelt at the altar, and cried. I cried and cried and cried. I sobbed my heart out. I grieved for little lives that were snatched away before coming to the birth. “I remember Mom. I listened to her comforting heartbeat and the muffled sounds of life outside. I heard and recognized Mom's gentle voice. I felt her hands touching me, I welcomed her caress. I felt protected and safe and cushioned. “What is happening? Loud words. Painful arguments. Tears. I cry too, my emotions are entwined with Mom’s. Then silence. It feels like days... Something cold brushes against me. I recoil in horror. Searing pain. Panic. Terror. Something grips my head, I can't twist away…" “Jesus holds me gently. I am safe. How did I get here? I don't remember the pain, tears and trauma. Where is Mom? A voice tells me I will meet Mom, later. That I'm totally safe, wanted, and loved.”  If you aborted your baby, for whatever reason, please know I don't judge you. Jesus loves you just as much as any person in his creation. The Bible says he doesn't want anyone to perish. That includes you. And me. So I care about you. If you had an abortion in the past, you may have experienced enormous regret afterwards. Many do. I want you to know that your little baby is safe, in heaven. Its every need is supplied. If you have made sure of your final destination, you will meet your child again. In a place where there are no tears or pain, no accusations or judgment. Only joy and love. If you haven’t done so yet, name your child. That little fetus was a person. Ask God to forgive you for what you did. If you are the husband who wanted the child aborted, the same applies to you. When we confess our sins to him and welcome Jesus into our lives, He forgives us. Talk to Him about your little baby. And look forward to the day when we will meet our loved ones who died in Christ. Even our tiny babies. Because that day is certain. Love,  Gerry van der Wende
