I just think this is the saddest thing I have ever heard. Really Bob? You believe this?
My first thought was "Well, what punishment does your God have for ignorant people who are judgmental about subjects they clearly know nothing about?"
I just want to say that I have never had an abortion, I was married to my childs father and we planed to have her. I have always been spiritual and .... I have a child with a severe handicap.
My daughter is an Angel in the Truest form of the world. She has taught me so much more than I ever could have learned with out her. I have learned the real meaning of sacrifice, I have learned deeper compassion for all people, I have learned to love and communicate. My daughter has repaired my relationship with my own mother. She is the biggest Blessing anyone could hope to get.
Is it easy? No not at all.
Is it worth it? Absolutely!
So Bob, please think about this for a moment...
If you are not comfortable around Angles here on earth there is no place for you in Heaven.
I do hope you get the chance to have your heart opened while you are here.
