Tell Me Pastor

Thinking of abortion number 2

Dear Pastor,

I'm currently 19 years old, and I'm living in the United States of America. About 2 years ago, while I was in Jamaica I got pregnant. I did an abortion.

Now I am pregnant again. I don't know what to do. I think if I keep this child it would only ruin my life, but on the other hand I really want to keep it. Please, Pastor just tell me what I should do?

Dear C.C.,

I am sorry to know that you did not learn from your first mistake. It is a pity you had an abortion because that will always be on your conscience. I would encourage you to have your baby. I don't know what your situation is, but it would be better to give up this child for adoption after giving birth, than to abort the pregnancy. The child deserves a chance in life.

Just be more careful in the future. My prayers are with you. All the very best.

Pastor
