In February, I noted certain words which President Trump uttered during the State of the Union address.
There could be no greater contrast to the beautiful image of a mother holding her infant child than the chilling displays our Nation saw in recent days. Lawmakers in New York cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth. These are living, feeling, beautiful babies who will never get the chance to share their love and dreams with the world. And then, we had the case of the Governor of Virginia where he basically stated he would execute a baby after birth.
To defend the dignity of every person, I am asking the Congress to pass legislation to prohibit the late-term abortion of children who can feel pain in the mother’s womb.Emphasis mine.
Let us work together to build a culture that cherishes innocent life. And let us reaffirm a fundamental truth: all children — born and unborn — are made in the holy image of God.
Like President Reagan before him -- "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall" -- this president seems to have emboldened the forces of life and liberty through "mere" declaration. President Trump spoke defeat on the murder of children.
In the wake of the SOTU speech, several states have enacted "Heartbeat" legislation, which bans abortion if the unborn baby's heartbeat can be detected -- around six weeks after the end of a woman's last menstrual cycle. And, today, Alabama has banned abortion outright.
Crimson Tide, indeed.
As many have pointed out, the new anti-abortion laws will be challenged in the courts, which, of course, is the point. It will lead to a review of Roe v. Wade.
In response to this chain of events, pro-abortionists are apoplectic, so much so that this happened a few days ago.
The beauty of this: Ms. Milano is unintentionally advocating a principle which pro-lifers -- especially Christians -- have been promoting since forever as the alternative to promiscuity which is the primary behavior leading to abortion: abstinence. And all the self-proclaimed righteous protectors of women's bodies are falling in line right behind her.
Abstinence and fewer abortions. That this may also result in fewer leftists is just a side benefit.
It's almost as if God has made the pro-abortionists so confused that they will do what He wants anyway while believing they are striking a blow for "women's rights."
God has a history of befuddling His servants' enemies. And in this case, God's servants = unborn babies.
Are these things stepping stones on the road towards our national repentance for the shedding of innocent blood?
I think they are.
Keep watch and, most of all, fret not.

This was really wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing!
I returned from China last Thursday. While there I searched for a representation of a mother and infant or small child. I found one in LiJiang in the west of China.
I was at many galleries. Only one depiction.
