about the 62 million
By Thea Wood
Over 62 million lives since 1973 have been silenced & not given a voice.
This was so overwhelming and daunting to me as I began to wake up to the world's darkness in 2020. The magnitude of the sin & shame that has taken place since the legalization of abortion is beyond human comprehension. It is so evil & I stand in faith it will be stopped in my lifetime!
I began to ask God, “What can we do about this? How can I partner with you, God, to bring healing, restoration & bring Heaven to earth?” It was as if I heard an audible voice from heaven say, "It is time to name the babies!"
As the founder of Kick Fear in the Face, I have always said fear is the #1 killer of people's dreams. But once you name the fear and draw a line in the sand, you can begin to take action towards overcoming and becoming a fear kicker and chain breaker in this world.
As I began to use my voice as an activist & philanthropist for the lives of the unborn, I began to meet men and women who had chosen to have an abortion or two at some point in their life. I would be on hikes with them, walking the beach, and even sitting in my own backyard. They shared with me so much shame & regret around this decision. After coming to know Jesus (Yeshua) as their Messiah, they accepted the forgiveness that only Christ (Hamashiach) could extend to us.
Heaven invades earth on our behalf --- shame is no longer your story!
As I began to ask if they had shared their story with others to give awareness & awakening to other men and women who were contemplating whether to choose LIFE or abort the fetus growing inside of them due to shame, pain, pride and inconvenience, many of them had shared privately, but not from a more public platform.
I don't fully understand what eternity will smell and feel like — none of us fully will until we meet Jesus (Yeshua) face-to-face. But Llt's live life to the fullest with nothing hidden until the day we go to HEAVEN.
“When it gets so dark in this world... It is our birthright as Children of Light to shine brighter & command the darkness to flee at the name of Jesus (Yeshua)!”
In my spirit, I feel this child that you once carried in your womb would love to be named. He or she would want be part of the bigger story of restoration & new life that God wants to bring into your family and this world. This place of pain is NOW the POWER of the LIVING GOD in your life!
In the years to come, these names will be a beacon of hope & light to this generation to PROCLAIM HOPE & SAY YES TO LIFE & LIFE more ABUNDANTLY!
“But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. ”
Micah 7:19 “He will again have compassion on us; he will tread our iniquities underfoot. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.”
