So you’ve had an abortion?
First off, I am so sorry. I understand the pain you are feeling. I understand the shame. You may be still feeling depressed or have physical symptoms. Please know you are not alone in your battle. The number of post-abortive women is staggering. It breaks my heart, but there is hope and healing available after an abortion. Even if you’ve had abortion after abortion, there is still help for you.
It’s not easy to bring up the past and dig through your emotions, but it is so worth it. Even after 10, 15 or 20 plus years, you can live free again. God will comfort you every step of the way. May God grant you the courage to be brave, face the truth of your abortion to find forgiveness and healing. There is new life waiting for you.
Below are some resources you may want to check out, along with a few links to my abortion story.
