The Chance of a Lifetime

She was eight months pregnant when an ex-boyfriend pulled out a gun and shot her preborn baby.
In Colorado, preborn children have no protections. There is no justice for the child intentionally killed with a gun or with abortion instruments.
These are the same sweet babies with faces and personalities we wouldn't kill if they were born. Literally, the same babies.
If a child were handicapped, ill, or helpless outside the womb we wouldn't poison them or pull them apart into pieces.
Why do we close our eyes and let the innocent be tortured to death?
We must repent. Pray to save these children. Care about them enough to save them. Treat them like we want to be treated. Love them.
There are 2 million couples wanting to adopt them, if we can just get them to the point of birth and let them keep living.
I get that no one wants to admit we were wrong or feel guilty for the children who have died on our watch. I get that.
But we cannot know grace until we know we need it. We cannot find heaven until we realize we don't deserve it.
And we cannot accept these sweet gifts from heaven unless we're willing to let love and faith conquer lies and fears.
They just want to live.
We need to become more human - like they are. Create a world where children are welcome to share it with us.
They need us only a little while. They will soon learn to walk, ride a bike, go to prom, dance at their wedding, and hold their own sweet babies. Let's share their dreams.
We need to be brave for them. Hope for them. And rescue them. We cannot rescue them with good intentions. The best strategies in the world cannot save them unless we do something.
It will take all of us - each of us - willing to change the law. To stop the poisons and the gunshots and the abortionists with the ammunition of our pens.
Like those signing the Declaration of Independence, we need to put our signature to paper.
Their mothers will thank us once they trade months of pregnancy for years of love.
When petitions come out, I pray God's people line up to take them out into every community across Colorado.
I pray that the good seeds we sow with our words and efforts reap great reward.
This is our chance of a lifetime to give children their chance of a lifetime. Out of 6 million people in Colorado, we need only 125,000 of us to care.
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. (Galatians 6:9)
The entire law is fulfilled in a single decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” (Galatians 5:14)

Praise the Lord! We are ready to take pen to paper and work to ensure that these precious babies have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Here am I, send me. Let’s go!
“But let justice run down like water,
And righteousness like a mighty stream.” Amos 5:24
