"I Went To The CLinic And Nothing Happened!"


from the 40 Days For Life" blog:

"...There’s always something good going on when people gather to pray — we have Christ’s word on it! But sometimes, those things are not immediately evident.

Jenifer wrote, 'I have been reading the wonderful, encouraging stories – the babies being saved, the employees who had changes of heart about their jobs and the moms who have given life to their babies instead of having abortions. Truthfully I was envious,' she said. 'Why wasn’t that happening in my city? I went tonight asking that of God.'

After praying for a while at the 40 Days for Life vigil site, Jenifer said she felt an answer in her heart. 'My job isn’t to wonder why we aren’t getting these results. My job is to be faithful to the call He has given me and to be a witness to others. My job is to pray, pray, pray and wait on God to use those prayers in the ways He ordains.'

Michele in Colorado Springs, Colorado said her team never heard of any babies being saved during their entire 40 Days for Life campaign last year. 'I believe in my heart that there were,' she said, 'but for some reason, God withheld the information from us. For those of you who do not know of any saves yet — and may not know for some time — I just tell you to continue to trust and hope in God and continue to pray. We do not know His ways, but He knows what is best for us and when it is best for us to know.'.."
