Proof of Life



The Lord is blessing us with a second child. We could not be more excited about our new arrival that is coming in about 3 weeks. That's him/her in the ultrasound so many weeks ago. As I look at this picture, just prior to the big event, I ask myself this question: "How much proof do I need to believe?"
As I started to think about this question, I think about science and human logic and how they require proof in order to believe in something. But that isn't really the case is it. The truth (proof) can slap us in the face and we still don't believe.
We have devices that can be used to hear a baby's heart beat in her mother's womb. We have ultrasounds that show vivid images of heart chambers, arms, legs, and noses. We have the ability to sustain a child that was born months too early and grow them into healthy children. In the face of this and other such empirical evidence, abortion advocates/scientists/doctors are hardened against these truths (proof) and continue to murder out of convenience. What other proof required?
