"I'll get an abortion."
A few states allowed abortions before Roe vs. Wade, but in most states, it was illegal. Women who did not want the baby they were carrying often went to unsafe places to rid themselves of an unwanted pregnancy. Many died or were left unable to bare children the rest of their lives because of the procedure. The main problem with abortion laws, both before and after Roe vs. Wade, is not that a woman may be forced to carry a child she does not want, but that she fails to recognize the value of the life of the unborn child in God's eyes. She does not understand that God created the baby in her womb and has plans for that life When Della finds out she is carrying her stepfather's child, she wants rid of it. She wants an abortion, but in 1964, that is illegal. What she really needs is guidance and help. It comes from a surprise source. See who God sends to her in her deepest hour of need. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0999254308
Book Excerpt
Finding Her Joy: Book 1 of Heart of A Family Series
“Shh…say no more. I know how it happens.”
“You do?” Della asked, looking into her eyes.
“Yes. I’m a school teacher, remember? Lots of girls have told me.”
“It happens to other girls?”
“Yes.”
“I don’t want to be a mother.” There, I’ve said it, the truth. I don’t want a baby to take care of.
“You’re going to have a baby.”
“I’ll get an abortion.”
Sister Bess stared at her for some time. “I can’t believe you said that. Abortion is murder. And it’s illegal. Life is precious. A baby is a gift from God!”
“A gift from God?” Della stared at her in disbelief. “How am I going to take care of a baby?” She buried her face in her hands.
