“Your current circumstances are part of your redemption story He is writing”-Evinda Lepins

I don’t believe God originally wrote abortion into my life, as God is the Creator of Life, but when it was introduced by man, or in my case, a woman, He rewrote the story of my life around it, to create the story of a life that is more intricate, more redemptive, more grace-filled, than anything anyone else could have planned or written. - Melissa Ohden
