Chapter 13
Prayer helps break confusion
Cindy falls asleep a short time later. Joe picks her up and
lays her on the couch. He gets a pillow and a blanket out of the
bedroom and brings them back into the living room and puts the
pillow under her head and the blanket over her. He then goes into
the bedroom and starts praying for her and certain people at work
such as Jerry and others he has shared with. After about 30
minutes, he still is disturbed at what happened earlier with
Cindy. He prays that God will give her a peace with whatever is
going on in her life and to give her the answers that she seems
to need. He prays that God's will be done on earth in her life as
his will is being done in heaven, his one and only perfect will.
He finally feels at peace with the situation so he gets off his
knees, gets undressed and gets in bed. His mind goes into
dreamland as he is going over certain scriptures in his mind such
as Mat 21:22, "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in
prayer, believing, ye shall receive." He knew that he was praying
in line with the written word of God so in turn, he knew that
things were going to work out for the good.
During the night, Cindy wakes up and her mind immediately goes to
Psalm 139. She starts thinking, "What am I going to do now? What
about our vacation? What about my modeling career that I have been
wanting to do for years? What about my figure? What about...?" Enough,
she has already planned the abortion and the life isn't really
life yet, it is just a few cells. Cindy keeps going over the
verses and what the counselor told her at Planned Parenthood. She
was trying to reconcile them. Then her mind went to Joe and how
he told her that Clyde told him that Planned Parenthood was one
of the biggest child killing organizations around. But how could
he say that? They seem so respectable, so much on the straight
and narrow. Her mind goes to different things and she finally
goes back to sleep. The alarm goes off at 6:30am and Joe is up,
he spends about 30 minutes in the word and in prayer and he takes
a quick shower, gets dressed and Cindy is in the kitchen
finishing cooking breakfast. Joe sits down, they talk a little as
they are eating, he finishes his coffee and he is gone. Cindy's
mind goes back to her appointment today at Planned Parenthood.
She gets the dishes cleaned up and goes into the bedroom to get
ready for her appointment. She keeps thinking about different
things, over-population, child abuse, unwanted children, time,
money, etc. Cindy shakes her head, "It isn't a human life yet,
now is the best time. I have only been pregnant 10 weeks." She
gets up and heads for the car, backs out and heads for the
clinic.
As Cindy walks into the clinic, they are once again cordial,
temperate, kind, they take her into one of the back rooms and she
partially undresses and puts her feet into some sort of stirrups.
She is feeling more and more uneasy as the time goes by. A few
minutes later a man comes in and asks her how is she doing. She
looks at him and says, "Not too well!" He tells her that she will
be feeling much better when the small inconvenience is over and
done with. Then like a flash of light, a thought comes to her
mind, "Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before
thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I
ordained thee a prophet unto the nations." Cindy is thinking
where did that come from as the man is turning on his abortion
machine. Cindy hollers, "No, No, No, I don't want an abortion!"
The doctor pushes her back down as she attempts to get up and she
bumps her head on the table causing a massive headache. She is
determined though. She comes up again, only to be pushed back
down, something is rising within her, some would call it
adrenalin but she knows better. She comes up for the third time
and pushes the man aside as if he were just a piece of trash in
her way and runs out the door of the clinic. She is crying as she
is racing towards her car, crying out of fear, confusion, and
also joy, she knows that she has done the right thing. Now to
watch the Lord work even greater miracles. She gets in her car as
they are calling out to her from the building to come back. She
pities them and hates what they stand for: "Women's liberation!"
or so they call it and the only one who can truly liberate is
Jesus whether it be a woman or a man. He is the Liberator.
Liberation is not killing an innocent child for your own selfish
goals, liberation is not controlling your own body at the expense
of another's life. Liberation is not making sin legal so you can
ruin your life and others. True liberation is being set free from
the power of sin and only Jesus can do that. He liberated, freed
her from the power of sin and he is daily doing it as she feeds
on his word, memorizes it and applies it to her life. Free, free,
she has never felt so free, she is free to do what is right not
free to do the wrong.
