Life and Death-Even They Belong to the Lord

Hello, This is ___________ from __________. Who am I speaking with please?

Weeping...Snuffles....This is Rosa.....More crying...

What's going on, Rosa?

I have made mistakes in my life....

So what is happening now?

I am pregnant, and I can't have this baby. I am going to have an abortion and I know it is wrong.

Me, praying, stalling for time, thinking....

Can you tell me more about your situation?

I already have an 18-month old. I have plans for my life....

When are you going to have the abortion?

Tomorrow...And I know it is wrong....But I have to do it...I want to start making right choices. I want to be strong.

Do you have any spiritual beliefs? Do you go to church?

Yes, I am part of a small church. I believe in God.

Rosa, the people in that small church will all be pro-life. Christians always are. Tell them what is happening. They will rally around you and help you in every way. Think what a privilege it will be for them to be able to act out their pro-life commitment. It will be such a joy to them, and you will be surrounded by so much love....We also have a partner organization that can counsel you, give you any practical help you might need. They are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. May I give you their number?....And Rosa, about being strong, and making good decisions. Why don't you do what is right and start right now, not after you have had the abortion. Making difficult,right decisions always strengthens you and blesses you longterm. Sinning weakens you and will leave you with a lifetime of regret and guilt. Abortion is not a good long-term solution....Also, I am going to be very honest here, Rosa, I would not want to stand before God on that final day and have to answer for the murder of my own child....

Crying...

Would you like me to transfer you to (our pro-life resource), Rosa, and you can talk with them now? Remember, they will help you in any and every way...

I am too upset right now.

If I give you their number, will you call them?

Yes.

Promise, promise that you will call them right away?

Yes.

So I pray and we hang up. And what has happened?...I don't know.

This caller I have not yet forgotten...But...I did all I could and it is in God's hands.

Sad, but hopeful! If anyone could get through, it would be you, Mom!

I really hope she called that number! But this is real life and you have been given such an honored role of being able to walk people through the most awful of situations! I am so excited that God has put you in this position!
