Someone upstairs thought she was deserving of a blessing. I want to be mad at her, but it\u2019s hard. I know \u2013 as I\u2019ve been told by a few women among my acquaintance who\u2019ve had abortions \u2013 that one day she will look at her little family and realize that one person is not there. Her heart will be heavy. Grace is for all.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not calling her a whore or any other name that those precariously perched on a moral high horse have done. What does that accomplish? Soften, don\u2019t harden the heart. I\u2019m not linking to her website either (the origin of the quotes), simply because I do not support glorifying the situation but want to highlight the disconnect between the message and the logic.<\/p>\n<p>You cannot, CANNOT claim to want rights for all \u2026 but some.
