It's still January, too...

...which means it's still Sanctity of Life month here at Conservababes.

UPDATE: This is going to leave a mark. Liberal caterwauling commences in 10...9...8...

There was a discussion in this thread about a woman’s “right to choose” in cases of rape and incest. Killing babies conceived during rape or incest is supposedly a “tough” issue for Christians, the commenter says. Since the day I realized I was a Christian, I was never torn about this issue. The life of the unborn is precious and worthy of protection no matter how that life is conceived. It really isn’t more clear than that. What’s unclear is whether Christians are willing to live as the world does or as God requires.

Think about it. Do you believe God says this is OK if the woman was raped? Is the prohibition against murder lifted in this case? The focus should always be on the unborn life, not the circumstances of conception and definitely not our feelings about it. Of course it would be hard to deal with, but believers have something unbelievers don’t: faith that moves mountains. The trials Christians face deepen our faith. Dealing with the consequences of sin (our own and everyone else’s) and emerging with even stronger faith in the One who saved us is what makes us different from the world. The Christian is supposed to deal with hardship in a way that distinguishes him from the non-Christian.

Sometimes what men intend as evil, God intends as good for his purposes, and Christians have to trust that God knows what he’s doing.

Yep. Good stuff there.

If I didn't trust that "God knows what he's doing" in regards to my situation, I don't know what I'd do. He does know what he's doing. "Beauty out of chaos", sometimes. But he knows what he's doing.
