(I had asked God to give me His view of grieving re post-abortion healing for women.)
I want those who have had abortions to know that it is right and proper, even healing for them to mourn the loss of their dear baby.
They are not to think that their part in this decision precludes them from mourning and grieving.
I have given them a heart for love and it becomes so distorted through abortion, yet aches to be able to love again.
They need to grieve this loss.
They need to grieve the loss of love, caring, compassion from their heart.
They need to grieve the fact that life will not be as they supposed.
They felt that by this choice things would be better.
I did not Create My People to live in lies. That is all abortion is. It is lies.
With an abortion the dad and mom feel this is perhaps their only choice – but after, they come to realize that that is wrong.
They feel that the circumstances were not right – not enough money, still a student, not well enough. But after, they come to realize that all of these were very poor excuses. That all of these were not coming from a heart that was created to love.
So many feel they are not worthy enough to shed a tear. Again this is a lie.
I Created you to have a heart full of love and it has to be expressed.
Even if you did not speak to the love in your heart beforehand, your heart is telling you now how much love it has lost by this decision.
Come to Me and share your burden with Me. I will shed tears with you. I want to be your companion on this journey.
I want you to grieve. I want you to find your true humanity again.
You were not Created to be cold and unfeeling. You were created to love and be loved. To know love, to share your love.
Grieving is all about healing.
It is telling Me how much you loved this baby, how hard a decision it was. And your heart is telling you it was not a healthy decision.
So you feel broken, shattered, drowning trying to find the person you knew beforehand.
You feel miles and miles apart from the person you knew and the person you feel you are now.
I did not Create you to live in pain and shame.
I want you whole and happy.
So please grieve this loss. Share with Me how much you love your baby. Yes, be sure to tell Me how much you love and miss your baby.
Otherwise, your heart is not broken. Your heart does not have to heal because if there is no lost love, there is no pain and shame and grief.
I treasure each and every tear you bring to Me. They are like a salve that I will pour over your heart to make you feel whole again.
I will tell you that your child loves you, forgives you, and wants you to call him/her by name.
Come to Me and Ask Me to reveal to you if it is a boy or a girl. I know and I will do this with Great Joy.
I want you to know that this Love which you think now, in your pain and hurt, is lost -- but it is not.
Come to Me. Bring Me your pain and hurt. Ask Me to heal all that is broken. I so want to.
You will come to hold and treasure your dear baby in your heart. You will be proud to be this baby’s mom.
I assure you grieving is necessary for healing. However, you can’t stay there forever beating yourself up.
I invite you to find a post-abortion healing support group. Not one where you will re-hash, and re-hash the abortion and your pain.
But one in which you will grow from self-loathing to self-worth.
One in which you will find a far deeper love for your child than you ever thought possible.
One in which you will realize the power of God who can make all things new in your life.
You will meet others who have made similar choices, yet have found the God of hope and healing. They know your pain and they want to offer you love and compassion and a way out of the lies of abortion.
Come and be greatly healed.
