    This is quite accurate Jim, and something not often mentioned by pro-life advocates. My wife and I miscarried before we wre blessed withour first child, and part of the process of the miscarriage invoved a D&C for health reasons. We were floored that the procedure had a legitimate apllication. No one had told us, and we actually had to deal with some guilt over it.

    Latreia:

    Over the years in ministry, I have sat at the bedside of loving Christian couples who have faced the same procedure, and agonized before God. In not one case, was it ever taken lightly.

    Many a woman has suffered needlessly for years, in my opinion. For this reason, I adopted the saying: Abortion if necessary, but not necessarily abortion.

    I tried always to be right with God, but sometimes, I struggled with what was right. In all things, I also tried to have a pastoral heart for the people, and never minded criticism when it came about my judgement.

    May the Lord bless you and your wife as you seek to know Him above all else, and give you peace that passes all understanding.

    Cheers,

    Jim
