An abortion is final. You cannot take it back. You cannot change your mind. The Cost of Abortion is Much Greater Than You Know is one of two poems dealing with my abortion. Before you take that final step, please reach out to and talk with a pro-life organization or an adoption agency. An internet search will bring up lists of both and a phone book should also list local organizations and agencies.
I wish I didn’t have to write this poem or this description. For years, an abortion was just something I had, had, just another matter-of-fact piece of my life. But God wasn’t going to let it stay that way. He started small, a jab here, a jab there, and slowly increased the pressure and frequency of the jabs until I had to face it. I had to admit what an abortion was and what I had done.
The Cost of Abortion Is Much Greater Than You Know
I will never forget that I killed my own child and that I killed a child of God. And each time I read the two poems dealing with this I’m broken all over again. Healing and forgiveness has come only because God loved me enough to bring me to brokenness and repentance and because He loved me enough to sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, for my sins.
