A man's story · Restoring a Father's Heart
God's timing God's grace
As a young man that did not have Christ in my life, I decided that my happiness was the most important thing in my life. I considered that happiness was to have sexual relations not caring of the outcome. With that mindset, I got my girlfriend pregnant and she decided to seek out an abortion. My only requirement was to come up with the money to pay for it. That was in 1977 when I was 18 and it cost $375.00 I did not understand the impact that the abortion would have on me later. Shortly after my girlfriend had the abortion we parted ways. I quickly got another girlfriend and she too wound up pregnant. She again decided to abort with very little input from me. We stayed together for about 6 months and moved to Arizona together. We then parted ways and that is when I found Jesus. About 10 years later I married and my wife started working at a crisis pregnancy office. After some soul searching I was reminded of what had happened before and my need for forgiveness by the grace of God.
