As I am researching for a talk I am giving at our weekly meeting next week, I came across this article written by John Piper (my talk is about dating, not about abortion just to clarify...I just came across this and felt compelled to read).  

Even last night as Chris and I were going to bed, we were talking about the election and then talking about abortion.  As we were discussing it, I felt this little baby kicking me.  Life is so precious.  Tomorrow we find out if we are having a boy or a girl and there are pros for having either, so I am excited either way!  I pray that this child is safe and healthy, and that I will be too (so far so good, despite the hives).  Amazing to be talking about something that directly affects so many unborn children, while my unborn child is very much alive saying "here I am mom!".  

Anyway, this article was really really good.  Jesus is so amazing and so full of grace, so even if you are reading this article and have had an abortion, or encouraged someone to have one...there is hope and forgiveness!  Praise Jesus!  I hope you take the time to read it.
