Why Tell the Secret? Part II

November 02, 2005

Following is Part II in our series "Why Tell the Secret." See yesterday's post for Part I.

We are to magnify God�s glory, not mask it. We find purpose and meaning in the tragedies of our lives whenever we allow God to use them for His glory. Second Corinthians 1:3- 4 speaks of comforting others with the comfort with which we ourselves have been comforted. How much more relevant would it be if you were able to prevent your children from following the same path by relating your abortion story to them?

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Abortion is one of those sins that is often repeated in subsequent generations. The bible speaks of generational sins and abortion is certainly no exception. Again, knowledge and experience are vital to dispelling the deceptions perpetuated by our society. Most people believe so many things about abortion that simply are not true. The truth has been kept at bay and so often by those who have been wounded by it the most. With truth comes the ability to make an informed choice based on reality, not upon the carefully constructed campaigns built by the pro-choice crowd. Telling your children the truth about abortion from the voice of experience gives them a firm foundation upon which to not only make wise decisions for themselves in this area, but also to be a positive and life-affirming influence upon the lives of those around them.

Look for Part III of this series tomorrow.
