Dearest Ones,
Fourteen young mothers, some with their boyfriends, went into the Building For Women in Duluth MN. to have the little unborn person they carried, torn asunder and hideously killed, shedding more innocent blood on American soil. Yes, there are multiple grief’s when one considers abortion; the mother herself–the accumulated guilt upon the nation, etc. It is sickening. Each heard the cry for mercy upon those condemned to die. Many heard the gospel of Jesus Christ.
It was a remarkable thing the Lord Jesus did, for when I arrived at the clinic I felt very weak, mentally, spiritually, physically, even emotionally. As we prayed we acknowledged to God that we knew He had us there on the streets that day, the whole purpose of our being there is NOT about us, but it’s about God and that His most Holy Name be exalted and glorified! We gave our whole time and selves to Him. . . and what a wonderful thing He did; We began with singing the gospel to people. Talking to a lady that said she thought people should have a choice, we asked, “What about the choice of the unborn person? they don’t choose to die.” We explained many things about the unborn and the consequences of abortion, as she turned to leave she said, “Maybe the reason women have such a hard time after an abortion is because God is trying to get even with them.” We told her that the wrath of God is upon all of us because of our sin. Jesus Christ went on the cross, to take our sin and the wrath of God upon Himself, He suffered and died. We told her that Jesus rose again from the dead and many witnesses saw him, and now He is coming back to judge the earth. If we reject Him and what He has done to save us, what is left for us but death and hell? The lady listened and thanked us and went on. We had many, many opportunities to say this to people.
One girl that walked out of the building, told us she was with her friend that was having an abortion. We explained that the “Women’s Health Center”, does not explain the details of the life of the unborn person and what abortion does to the child. What she might think is simple “choice” has life time consequences of regret, pain, guilt. The people doing abortions are making allot of money, it is a hideous, gruesome and bloody. We gave her the gospel, what our Lord Jesus did on the cross, shows how deeply God values human life. Abortion shows how much people de-value human life. God is for life, they are for death. After telling her this she promised to talk to her friend and show her all the material we gave. Please pray for the salvation of this girl.
Later that day we held signs in front of Planned Parenthood that proclaimed the gospel message. Many read these signs and we pray for many to turn to our Saviour to believe and repent of their sins.
Prayer needs:
The next abortion day at the Building For Women in Duluth MN. is December 30, 2008, please even now begin to pray for God to deliver many from abortion and turn many to Jesus Christ.
Please remember us as we hold signs in front of Planned Parenthood, starting again in January.
Please pray that the “Building For Women” in Duluth MN. will be shut down for good, that the building will have a horrible smell that they can not get rid of and must condemn it.
Pray for the salvation of Mr. and Mrs. Katz, Mr. Anderson, Laurie Casey, Tina Welsh, and others involved in the wicked practice of abortion.
Please pray for the Yoder family each week as they continue to plead for the life of unborn people in Kansas City MO. and as they give the gospel that many will be saved.
Praise Our Wonderful Lord Jesus Christ!
Thank you for prayer,
Sarah
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for Jehovah; And he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay; And he set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: Many shall see it, and fear, And shall trust in Jehovah. Blessed is the man that maketh Jehovah his trust, And respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies. Many, O Jehovah my God, are the wonderful works which thou hast done, And thy thoughts which are to us-ward; They cannot be set in order unto thee; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered. Sacrifice and offering thou hast no delight in; Mine ears hast thou opened: Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not required. Then said I, Lo, I am come; In the roll of the book it is written of me: I delight to do thy will, O my God; Yea, thy law is within my heart. I have proclaimed glad tidings of righteousness in the great assembly; Lo, I will not refrain my lips, O Jehovah, thou knowest. I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation; I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great assembly. Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Jehovah; Let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me. For innumerable evils have compassed me about; Mine iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; They are more than the hairs of my head; And my heart hath failed me. Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me: Make haste to help me, O Jehovah. Let them be put to shame and confounded together That seek after my soul to destroy it: Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor That delight in my hurt. Let them be desolate by reason of their shame That say unto me, Aha, aha. Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: Let such as love thy salvation say continually, Jehovah be magnified. But I am poor and needy; Yet the Lord thinketh upon me: Thou art my help and my deliverer; Make no tarrying, O my God. Pslam 40
