Several days ago I met a man who was very active in the pro-life area of anti abortion ministry. As we talked, he got around to explaining that about thirty plus years ago when was thirty years old, his wife became pregnant with her fourth child. She told him that she did not want another child and she was going to have the child aborted. He said that he told her that he thought that it was wrong but she went through with the abortion anyway.
ReplyDeleteAs he was explaining his story to me, he began to weep. He said that although he had reconciled with the Lord, he was still very troubled by the killing of his unborn child. So often the pro-choice advocates say that there is not a phychological effect of abortion on the mother much less the father.
