“JUST . . .” ?

Pregnant ?
Pregnant “with tissue” ?

Try saying this, to make it personal, about yourself:
– I was “just tissue” for nine months (more or less) ?
– I was “just an inconvenience” ?
– I was “just an unhealthy part of my mommy’s body” ?
– I was “a malignant growth in my mommy”—endangered my mommy’s life—should have had it cut out ?

“You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother’s womb.
I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.”

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
The fruit of the womb is His reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,
So are the children of one’s youth.
Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them;
They shall not be ashamed,
But shall speak with their enemies in the gate.”

The Bible is PRO-LIFE—loaded.

God is PRO-LIFE—invented all life.

God is PRO-LIFE—does not make mistakes.

God is PRO-MALE+FEMALE—He said it—“He created male and female”—that’s it.

God is PRO-MARRIAGE—He said it—“a man bound to his wife”—that’s it.

God is PRO-SEX—He said it—“Let your fountain be blessed”*—that’s it.

God is PRO-PROCREATION—He said it—“fruitful, multiply”, first command—that’s it.

God is PRO-LIFE—He said it—“choose life”—all life, beginning to end.

God made His Way clear to Israel 3400 years ago, and it remains clear to us today in our Bible.

“See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil, in that I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, His statutes, and His judgments, that you may live and multiply; and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you go to possess. But if your heart turns away so that you do not hear, and are drawn away, and worship other gods and serve them, I announce to you today that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Jordan to go in and possess. I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”

*”Let your fountain be blessed,
And rejoice with the wife of your youth.
As a loving deer and a graceful doe,
Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;
And always be enraptured with her love.”
