40 Days For Life: DAY 13: She ran out of Planned Parenthood!

 

It's Monday...and that means it's time to update the number of babies saved from abortion through your prayers. Today, we know of 99 babies spared from abortion since February 26!

Laura gave an abortion client at Planned Parenthood's flagship facility in Manhattan a pamphlet encouraging her to RUN away from the abortion center. About 45 minutes later, that's exactly what happened. As the expectant mother literally ran past Laura, she slowed only to thank Laura for the brochure. "I didn’t go through with it. I’m 17 weeks pregnant and they told me it’s nothing! They put pressure on me in Planned Parenthood! Now, I can’t believe I even considered it."

The woman's boyfriend also called her and encouraged her not to go through with the abortion. "Praise the Lord!" exclaimed Laurie, the Manhattan leader.

Pensacola, Florida "Two babies, two mothers and fathers were saved from the trauma of abortion," announced Ernie, the longtime campaign leader in Pensacola. When sidewalk counselors found themselves struggling to communicate with a Spanish-speaking abortion client, they called for backup. A phone call to a Spanish-speaking sidewalk counselor empowered the woman to leave the abortion facility. "The story gets better!" Ernie continued. "Our dear friend and vigil participant, who is a former clinic worker, is going to host a baby shower for our mother! The mercy of God is truly on display in Pensacola!"

Kent, Washington "Is there something we can help you with?" a vigil participant in Kent asked a woman arriving to Planned Parenthood. The woman responded that she was trying to make an appointment. The prayer warrior suggested that instead of visiting Planned Parenthood, the woman check out a nearby pregnancy help center where she could get free support. The woman accepted the invitation, and the next day, the pregnancy center wrote the 40 Days for Life team to say, "I can't tell you anything else...but I wanted [vigil participants] to know they are making a difference."

A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy habitation. —Psalm 68:5 Heavenly Father, we thank you for caring about each of us so deeply. Help us to see and know you as our Father in heaven each and every day of our lives. Your loving hand also rests on every child today carried in its mother’s womb. May they be born into this world and come to know fully and personally your endless love. See today's full devotional
