I try not to get too political on this blog. We are to walk in the light of God's love and vote according to His Word; but I have to speak up 'for the little ones'. I think Phil Keaggy's song "LITTLE ONES" says it best, so I will just let these words speak for me, too.
Little Ones
by: Phil Keaggy
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
Equal rights, equal time, for the unborn children.
Their precious lives are on the line,
How can we be rid of them?
Passing laws, passing out
Bills and new amendments.
Pay the cost and turn about,
And face the young defendants.
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
Many come and many go,
Conceived but not delivered.
The toll is astronomical,
How can we be indifferent.
Little hands, little feet,
Tears for Him who made you.
Should all on earth forsake you now,
But He'll never forsake you.
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?
Forming hearts, forming minds,
Quenched before awakened,
For so many deliberate crimes
The earth will soon be shaken.
Little hands, little feet,
Tears for Him who made you.
Should all on earth forsake you now,
But He'll never forsake you.
Who will speak up for the little ones?
Helpless and half-abandoned.
They've got the right to choose life
They don't want to lose,
I've got to speak up, won't you?

That is so beautiful and touching. I know I don't like to get too political but when it come to the unborn.. it just touches a raw nerve for me.. that is just one area I will not sit down and stay quiet.. these innocent babies are not being allowed a voice, someone must stand up and be their voice.. good for you Aunt Marie:)
This song really brings it to light, doesn't it? Oh that only understood that when we have to stand before God with the results of our vote. May we be a nation no longer with the blood of the unborn on our hands.

Thank you Sister, for putting this out in the open! We must stop the killing and if they (the people who choose to believe this is right choice)only knew that the majority of these unborn babies are minority blacks and minority hispanics. Don't they realize that the government is paying for this abortion so there will be less black babies and less hispanic babies on welfare? They would rather pay $300/abortion then help an unwed mother bring life to term! How very, very sad. 42 million since Roe V Wade. That is a large country! God forgive us and our country for not taking care of the little ones.
