Twice I was tested with the question pro-life or pro-choice
When I was sixteen years old I was pregnant. I chose to abort the child and I am still drawn to tearful regret of that choice. My mother came with me to the abortion clinic and tried to prepare me for what I might feel both physically and mentally. I wish someone at the time would have told me what the procedure was and what the child would endure.

Behind Jesus a boy with dark hair and big brown eyes peered from around Jesus garment. Jesus said, "This is your son. The son that I aborted. I will never forget the look on Jesus and his face. They did not need to say a word. I knew I was forgiven. When telling my mother about the dream she confirmed to me that the child was a boy.

It never occured to me until the making of this video that God's intentions for me within that dream might have been for a test I would unknowingly enter. This time I was diagnosed with bone cancer and given three to eighteen months to live. The chemo therapy was so agressive tat the doctors said I was going through early menopause. They said that I would not be able to get pregnant.

A Prayer for the Door That Was Closed - Your Daily Prayer - April 18
When we’re faced with a closed door, it might be beneficial for us to consider both Adam and Eve’s story, and maybe even cats, too, because God sometimes reveals truth to us through them.
