A LIFE SAVED<\/p>\n

11-23-2016<\/p>\n

I discovered that I was pregnant,
\nIt caught me quite by surprise,
\nI went down to see an abortionist,
\nWho told me all the normal lies.<\/p>\n

The baby would not feel anything,
\nHe could remove it that same day,
\nBut I decided against doing it,
\nAfter I took serious time to pray.<\/p>\n

Now my wonderful child is growing,
\nI look forward to her coming birth,
\nThankful God brought me to my senses,
\nSo that I recognize my baby’s worth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
