Something I also gained from that experience was a different view on abortion as well. I was asked on several occasions to speak to Right to Life Groups and I always would say, “I am not a Right to Life” supporter – I am very pro-choice in that regard. (This doesn’t make me pro-abortion.) But it was a Right to Life sponsored clinic that subjected me to the graphic, violent videos that gave me nightmares for years. For me, abortion was not the answer. However, I can tell you – picketing abortion clinics & screaming judgments upon young women entering the clinic accomplishes nothing. The most impact is made if you are in their life either during the agonizing process of making that decision that leads up to that point or be willing to take her out the back door when it’s over and done and sit with her and love her and support her during her recovery – because by the time she gets to the clinic – you are too late in influencing her decision. Her baby’s life may be lost and be sent straight to arms of Heaven; but that young mother’s soul may still be lost – and she -as with any mother in crisis pregnancy – is the one who needs love… not judgment.

I never read about Jesus picketing anything, have you?
