Introduction
Supporting God's calling to protect the unborn is not always an easy task. It requires us to step out of our comfort zones and take bold steps to make a difference in the lives of the most vulnerable humans. In this blog post, we will explore ten practical ways to support God's calling and provide encouraging scripture to inspire and guide you along the way.
1. Educate Yourself
One of the first steps in supporting God's calling to protect the unborn is to educate yourself about the sanctity of life and the issues surrounding abortion. Read books, articles, and research papers that provide a biblical perspective on the value of every human life. Understanding the facts and arguments will equip you to engage in meaningful conversations and advocate for the unborn.
Scripture: "For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well." (Psalm 139:13-14 ESV)
2. Volunteer at a Pregnancy Resource Center
Pregnancy resource centers provide essential support to women facing unplanned pregnancies. By volunteering at a pregnancy resource center, you can offer practical assistance, emotional support, and spiritual guidance to women in need. Your presence and willingness to help can make a significant difference in their lives and in the lives of their unborn children.
Scripture: "And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward." (Matthew 10:42 ESV)
3. Support Pro-Life Organizations
There are numerous pro-life organizations dedicated to protecting the unborn and supporting women in crisis pregnancies. Consider donating your time, skills, or financial resources to these organizations. Your support can help fund educational programs, provide resources to women in need, and advocate for pro-life legislation.
Scripture: "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute." (Proverbs 31:8 NIV)
4. Foster or Adopt
One of the most impactful ways to support God's calling to protect the unborn is by opening your home and heart to a child in need. Fostering or adopting a child not only provides a loving family for a vulnerable child but also demonstrates the value of every human life. It is a tangible way to live out your pro-life convictions.
Scripture: "Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world." (James 1:27 ESV)
5. Pray
Prayer is a powerful tool in supporting God's calling to protect the unborn. Pray for women facing unplanned pregnancies, for the unborn babies, and for those involved in the abortion industry. Pray for wisdom, guidance, and compassion to make a difference in the lives of those affected by abortion. Seek God's guidance and ask Him to use you as an instrument of His love and grace.
Scripture: "The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working." (James 5:16 ESV)
6. Engage in Peaceful Pro-Life Activism
Peaceful pro-life activism can take many forms, such as participating in peaceful protests, organizing awareness campaigns, or writing letters to lawmakers. Find a way to use your voice and talents to advocate for the unborn in a peaceful and respectful manner. Remember to always approach these activities with love and compassion, seeking to change hearts and minds.
Scripture: "But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect." (1 Peter 3:15 ESV)
7. Support Pregnant Women in Your Community
Reach out to pregnant women in your community and offer practical support. This could include providing meals, transportation, or babysitting services. Show them that they are not alone and that there is a community of people who care about their well-being and the well-being of their unborn children.
Scripture: "Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing." (1 Thessalonians 5:11 ESV)
8. Share Your Testimony
Your personal story and experiences can be a powerful tool in supporting God's calling to protect the unborn. Share your testimony with others, explaining how your faith has shaped your pro-life convictions and actions. Your story may inspire others to reevaluate their views on abortion and consider the sanctity of life.
Scripture: "Let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story." (Psalm 107:2 NIV)
9. Advocate for Pro-Life Legislation
Get involved in advocating for pro-life legislation in your community or country. Stay informed about upcoming bills and initiatives that impact the unborn and use your voice to support laws that protect their rights. Write to your elected officials, attend public hearings, and engage in respectful conversations with those who hold different views.
Scripture: "Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all who are destitute." (Proverbs 31:8 ESV)
10. Support Post-Abortion Healing Ministries
Recognize that many women and men have been affected by abortion and may be in need of healing and restoration. Support post-abortion healing ministries by volunteering, donating, or simply being a compassionate listener. Show them the love and forgiveness of Christ, offering hope and healing in the midst of their pain.
Scripture: "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." (Psalm 147:3 ESV)
Conclusion
Stepping out of our comfort zones to support God's calling to protect the unborn is a courageous and necessary act. By educating ourselves, volunteering, supporting pro-life organizations, fostering or adopting, praying, engaging in peaceful activism, supporting pregnant women, sharing our testimonies, advocating for legislation, and supporting post-abortion healing, we can make a difference in the lives of the most vulnerable humans.
Remember, as followers of Christ, we are called to love and protect all human life. Let us embrace this calling and be a voice for the voiceless, supporting God's work in protecting the unborn.
