The anniversary of Roe v. Wade has passed us by, the March for Life is over, but the work is not done.
There are still the crisis pregnancies. There are still the mothers
not sure if they can take care of the babies in their wombs. There are
still the couples using abortifacient contraceptives. There are still
the women not willing to make the physical sacrifices of being pregnant,
but choosing to act in a way that will bring new human life into
existence nonetheless. There are still lonely mothers in need of support
from others. The fear and worry surrounding pregnancy that has led to
legalized abortion is still rampant in our nation, even though deep down
inside we all know that abortion ends a human life.
The March for Life is a beautiful thing. It reminds our nation of the
tragedy of millions of lives lost through abortion. It reminds our
political leaders that our nation needs to stop the legal murder of the
unborn. And in some cases it might change peoples’ hearts or give them
the courage to speak up for a cause they have never been able to before.
But the real work of the pro-life movement happens during the rest of
the year...
