God created man In His own image, male and female He created them and then He blessed them. (Genesis1:27) I would say God blessed them with the gift to give birth, because following the blessing He said, Be fruitful and multiply. How beautiful to receive such a blessing from God.
Two of my babies passed away in my womb, for reasons unknown, but I believe they were placed in the arms of Jesus snuggled safely in His presence. I hold them dearly in my heart and one day I will see them again, and hold them in my arms forever! Only God knows why He gives and takes away, and it’s not for us to know the reasons but all we are required to do, is to trust His reasoning in everything, for He knows best. In Job 1:21 he says, “The Lord gave, and He has taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord.” The enemy certainly caused a lot of suffering for Job and through it all he kept his trust in God. His faith was tested, and he passed. I also say, Blessed be the name of the Lord, because even though I lost two He gave me back more than I ever dreamed possible.
Just the other day the Lord showed me the beautiful scriptures In Psalms 128 Verse 1…
Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord and walks in His ways then in verse 3 it talks of a wife being a fruitful vine…I was caught up in all the beauty and these words flowed from my heart…
As a woman and wife, I’m a fruitful vine, in the very heart of my home I have been blessed with a lovely daughter and two wonderful sons. My children have grown like olive plants all around our table and fruitful blessings flow as my children’s children have blossomed and bloomed…Each one is a reward from the fruit of the womb…A sweet inheritance from the Lord! Ps. 127:3
Well let me introduce you to my youngest beautiful granddaughter Rosalie Anne, she is a precious gift from God and a great reward more valuable to me than any other reward you can receive in the world. My son and daughter in law adore her and so does her two big sisters. I am truly blessed by God with twelve grandchildren that have touched my life immensely and I thank God each day for everyone of them.
When I first held Rosalie in my arms my heart filled with tears when I thought of the countless beautiful little babies that are cruelly snatched out of the womb, with no regard to God’s precious gift of life that He so skillfully and uniquely created. (Psalm 139:13,14) Let alone the pain in God’s heart when each one is taken, but also the pain the baby endures through the process. I pray for those who have broken the perfect design of God that He has created for all mankind to enjoy. I believe there will be a powerful penalty to pay for taking the lives of His innocent precious little ones.
I also pray for those who may be thinking of having an abortion that they will have a change of mind and let their little gift from God be given a chance at life, which they truly deserve. And may the blessings of my life I’ve shared, have an impact on yours to make the right decision.
I will stand and be a voice for the precious little ones that can’t speak for themselves and as I write this blog, I shed tears for each one. I also take my stand for the Lord with a message from His heart to mine and I pass it on to yours.
Thank you everyone for reading my post and please feel free to share!
