Our nations' lost love

"I am a wonder unto many; but thou art my strong refuge."

I heard a story about a newborn baby boy born and left in a hospital room without any form of nutrients--left there to die. Left to die alone, abandoned. Left without love. And then after the Dr. came back the next week he said, "I guess he won't die-we'll have to find a home for him." Dear God! What has this nation come to--when you can despise the created life--innocent and pure. Maybe looking at this baby brings a shame that this doctor and others cannot accept and repent of--Is this little tiny life--is it a reflection of what they have not become? (For if you do not come to God as a little child, you cannot enter into heaven.) Is it that you cannot help but see God's hand in His creation? Have we become a society where we have lost all natural love for the very child that depends upon us. I cry for them Lord. Please let my anger and tears not turn into hatred, but let me cry also for the souls of those that will face hell where the cries of children will haunt them throughout eternity. May they turn from their wicked ways. May they turn around and unmask their blinded hearts. Lord, do not forget to hear the cries of your children. When I look up at the stars I'm reminded of the Jewels that are in Heaven and my Samuel is one of them. They are safe from this cruel world-yet do not forget, and cause me not to hate, but to pray fervently for those that they will turn around so that they can see their child again in Heaven. Help me to forgive them Lord, and to love them because you love them. Help me to remember that we are all sinners and it is by your grace that I am saved. And that " whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (romans 10:13). God I know that I am to love them, but sometimes it is so hard, so I ask that you let me see them as you see them. Oh Lord, bless those that have lost their babies or cannot have any. When they see the innocent blood-comfort them. Put your arms around them.

2 Chronicles 7:14
"If...(they) shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin..."
