Pro-abortionists are wrong - many people DO want to talk to US

This past Saturday we were praying and counseling at Dr. Emily Women's Health Center when we were blessed with a great gift.


Right as we were about to leave a couple came out of the clinic and I was able to hand them a brochure. Because of the time of day, I knew that most women leaving the clinic would have had an abortion, so I gave them some post-abortive help information while explaining to them I wasn't assuming anything but it's just in case they need help.




As the man and woman started to walk away we continued to pray. About twenty feet away, while she kept walking, he had turned around and signaled to me. The clinic escort who was standing right beside us and mindlessly ranting in our ears as we prayed thought he was trying to call her over.


After he made it clear to her that, no - he wanted to talk to us, I walked over and greeted him. He then told me that they had changed their mind. I could tell by the tone in his voice that he was relieved that a horrible mistake was averted. He had a sort of dignified voice that a man gets when he knows that he did something that was difficult but morally right.




I'm so flattered that the man came to us to tell us about his decision. He knew that we were there to offer help and witness for life and wanted to let me know the good news. I just had this sort of feeling that he knew we were on his team.


God only knows what role, if any, we played in the saving of that baby - which is one way He keeps us humble, but I do know that regardless of who or what was the main instrument of a woman or couple's conversion, God should always get the credit.
