January Is Sanctity of Life Month

by Lois Breneman, 2006, Heart to Heart

Dr. D. James Kennedy of Coral Ridge Ministries in Florida recently said on his radio broadcast, "One hundred twenty-six thousand (126,000) murders are committed each day in the United States.  It's called 'abortion!' "  He went on to say how across globe, more babies' lives have been taken through abortion, than the number of all the lives lost in every war throughout the history of the world!  Just think about that!

Kurt Dillinger, President of Life International in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was a guest on the Focus on the Family radio broadcast today, January 19, 2006.  He told how prayer helped turn one abortion clinic into a pro-life ministry.  Go to www.family.org to hear this broadcast.  Write "radio" in the search block.  Friday will be a continuation of this broadcast.

Today Kurt Dillinger reported, "There are 210 million preborn children conceived every year on record.  Of those 210 million around the globe, 51 million are aborted for no other reason than they are a burden."  So one fourth of all babies conceived are wiped out - never even given a chance to see the light of day here on earth.  God has them in the palms of His Hand now though, and I pray each of those parents and grandparents will join those precious babies in heaven someday, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.  At the end of the story mentioned below, The Price Tag of Love, you can read how to be sure you are on your way to heaven.

Focus on the Family is in a fight to save as many innocent unborn lives as possible, by supplying the technology of ultrasound equipment to Pregnancy Resource Centers across the country.  A relatively new effort named "Option Ultrasound," began in 2004 and by the end of 2005, they estimate that 4,000 babies have been saved through this ministry!  That's because when a woman sees her baby on the ultrasound screen, it has a tremendous impact - an impact greater than anything else.  In fact, over 80 percent of those women change their mind and decide to give life to their child, after ultrasound is used as a tool to save babies!

Let us never give up praying for the lives of innocent unborn babies to be given a chance at life.  As you can see, the Lord is answering prayer!
