Sanctity of life

Jeremiah 1:5

“Before I formed you in your mother’s womb I chose you.
Before you were born I set you apart.
I appointed you to be a prophet to the nations.”

 

Mother

 

A young lady showed conviction

to follow God's direction for her life.

She choose herself a husband

to make him a virtuous wife.

 

And without any restriction

God planted within her a new life.

She went to her trusted doctor

to monitor the progress of that life.

 

The conclusion reached, brought conviction,

that the life "to be" would be sad.

For lack of air to the unborn

would restrict development there.

 

So he showed this young lady his findings

and his conclusions then he shared,

but the answers he had should be binding

for the future of mother and child.

 

When the mother of the unborn concluded

to turn it over to the "author of life"

The doctor took his will not secluded

to turn the option of the mommy to strife

 

Well the doctor has his wish, he's been noticed,

for interfering in the faith of a wife.

He'll write a book  as an expert  and will show it

while the mother has a whole nation to fight.

 

When uncertain and scared with life's trials,

don't go to a doctor to find consolation there.

Even an expert can be an empty spiritual vial

just to influence every one, who really cares.

 

Do his intentions, his will and his education

make him an expert on how you should fare?

And is he "really" smarter than the creator

Who made everything with time to spare?

 

Some doctors also perform abortions

to schemely put an end to unborn life.

For reasons not understood by believers,

who are forced in these times to stay aside.

 

There is a place prepared for this young mother,

where there is no sickness, grief and strife,

to be fully rewarded for strength of conviction

in the presence of the Author of Life.
