This is a powerful story about God's love and grace for all of us. Both parts so moving. The last story a great illustration of God's love moving through us and working ALL things for His good purpose. I like the way that both stories have the "blood crying out from the grave" element to them. Thanks for sharing this inspirational and moving write. A heads up on an extra word:
"God not not only saw man's sin and deprived state, but his need for a savior. "
Blessings.

Thank you so much for the outstanding review and spiritual insight into my writing. More than anything, I hope everyone sees what you saw...our need for a savior. If my words point to Him, my work is complete. This is allI could ask for.
All my best and blessings from above.

Thank you so much Ray. I am sorry to hear about your losses. My husband and I miscarried when when we lived in New York. I fell on the ice and began hemorrhaging a few weeks later. We also lost a granddaughter at birth. Both losses were an extreme test of our faith. I am glad to say God has provided and we now have a granddaughter who is almost five. She has three older brothers. Thanks so much for stopping by and for your kind words and support.
All my best and God?s richest blessings to you both,
Sally
Comment from Donka Kristeva
You have chosen a very sensitive topic but in the hands of God all human emotions, when yielded to Him, are healed. A poignant story, but with an end that gives hope! Such is the Lord, never forsaking His children. Cain taking the life of his brother was a violation God's law of life. But to that sin too there cam an Answer! And the transformation of that young lady shows that at the end of each dark passage there is Light-- Christ Jesus Himself.

Thank you so much for the excellent review and spiritual insight , my dear friend. It is a sensitive topic and even more sensitive after this week. The state of New York passed a law legalizing abortion until birth. It was just signed into law the very day I had this story sitting in my lap. Thank you for the ongoing encouragement!
All my best,

Comment from Ben Colder
Yes, what a beautiful testimony and so right on. He is a second chance, third chance God for He is love. Where there is no love there is no God for he that loves not knows not God. So good to hear how perfect love cast out fear. My blessings to you.

Thank you so much for the outstanding review and encouraging support. I was so pleased,to see your name. This was sitting in my lap as the state of New Yor passed a new law to legalize abortion until the birth of the unborn child. I was sacked by it and this post seemed more necessary than ever. A timely word for us all.
I hope to see your continuing stories of the Watkins?s in the days ahead.
I hope you and your family are well and good.
All my best,
Sally

Imagine women praising the fact of killing their own flesh and blood. "Like in the day of Noah.". Our Lord is about to come and get us.

Thank you for the excellent review and kind comments. Noe is correct. The Greek translation of his name from the original Hebrew text. Everyone is having trouble with it and I will most likely change it to Noah.
All my best,

Comment from Kathleen Washnis
What a great segue to speak of the Cain and Able story and then your own personal relate of the girl who aborted her child yet you held her, supported her and with prayer, faith and trust, God allowed her a child of her own. The mercy of God is ever present in your writing. I used up my six stars so I gave you the next best thing! Just one minor mention, shouldn't it be Noah not Noe? Great picture of Cain and Able you provided to go with your story!

Thanks Sally, I figured you knew something that I didn't but just wasn't sure if it was a type-o! Thanks for clarifying that for me. : )

Comment from damommy
This is a great story. I think the hardest thing we can do is forgive ourselves, even though we know God already has. This young woman turned her tragedy into something to help others.

Thank you so much for the excellent review and insightful comments. Yes, it is so important to forgives ourselves as well. God is much quicker to grant forgiveness than humans. I say this from my own experience.

Dear Meeshu, thank you so much. It was burning in my heart, as well. A heavy week with all the stuff going on in New York with the new abortion law. I had to do something with my mighty pen.I appreciate your support and kind review.
All my best,

Comment from Miss Sherry
You have presented a wonderful testimony of the loving Lord who forgives all and whom we can go to in our hour of deepest need It is really effective to put two parts together. You must have worked very hard on this. I am in awe. I am also so proud of this young woman. Blessings to you both and all concerned.

Thank you so much, dear Sherry. I am glad if my writing touched you. It meant a lot to me to write it as this week the abortion laws in New York were extended to full term. This has just broken my heart. I felt compelled to write this?the pen is mightier than the sword.
All my best,
